Dallas-based Texas Capital Bank NA and its parent company, Texas Capital Bancshares Inc., announced on July 20 that Jon M. Larson has been appointed head of homebuilder and community finance, previously known as specialized residential real estate. He will report to Curtis Burchard, executive vice president and head of real estate, and be responsible for leading and supervising the delivery of banking products and solutions nationwide to the homebuilders, developers and communities the bank serves.
Larson brings more than 30 years of experience in real estate banking, the majority of which has been spent generating more than $5 billion in various homebuilder portfolios. Prior to joining Texas Capital Bank, he was senior vice president/commercial real estate lending at BBVA USA where he was responsible for serving real estate clients’ needs in the Southern California market. Prior to this, he served in a number of leadership roles over 19 years at Guaranty Bank Homebuilder Finance before it was acquired by BBVA—first in Texas and eventually as senior vice president and Western region manager focused on the states of California, Arizona, Colorado, Nevada and Utah.
Larson received a BA degree in international relations/Spanish from Brigham Young University and an MBA degree in real estate and finance from the University of Texas–Arlington.
“Jon is a seasoned real estate banking professional with deep experience serving all facets of the homebuilder segment,” says Rob C. Holmes, president and CEO. “He brings strong leadership and a proven track record of success in this important, high-growth industry sector. We are committed to the homebuilder business and are confident that with Jon’s insightful expertise and extensive industry relationships we will continue to provide exceptional service to our clients as we continue our ongoing transformation.”
“I have long admired Texas Capital Bank and am honored to join the team,” Larson says. “I am excited to return to Texas where I started my career and look forward to leveraging my decades of homebuilder finance experiences to help produce industry-leading, differentiated client and investor relationships, and growing an exceptional team.”
Established in 1997, Texas Capital Bank operates 12 branches in the Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio and Austin regions of Texas.
