Shawn “Kap” Kaplan is a Branch Manager, Senior Mortgage Advisor, and nationally recognized mortgage and real estate educator with more than 25 years of experience.

Throughout his career, Kap has funded over $1 billion in home loans, reviewed more than 30,000 mortgage applications, and helped over 10,000 families build wealth through homeownership and real estate investing.

Known as the “HopeDealer,” Kap believes the best mortgage professionals do more than quote rates. They educate, solve problems, create opportunities, and help Realtors turn more conversations into closings.

He specializes in complex financing, including self-employed borrowers, physicians, investors, luxury buyers, new construction, condominiums, bridge financing, and creative strategies for buyers who need to sell one home while purchasing another.

Kap is also a sought-after speaker, content creator, and business coach who teaches real estate professionals how to build stronger brands, communicate more effectively, use social media strategically, and create a client experience that generates repeat business and referrals.

He lives on a farm outside Nashville with his wife, their two daughters, and three French Bulldogs.
