1. John Steve Tsavaris Sales/In Home Closer
John Tsavaris is founder/ manager of Home Saving Solutions, LLC. Born and raised in Tarpon
Springs, Florida, John worked in his family’s home building business until he graduated from
Tarpon Springs High School in 1966 and joined the United States Army. Upon his return from
the military in 1970, John attended the University of Tampa and St. Petersburg College and
received his Associates degree. He continued his studies in Business Administration and Natural
Sciences at the University of South Florida. Soon thereafter, John established a regional flower
distribution business which grew to over 50 locations throughout west Florida. In 1975 he was
awarded the Jim Walter National Entrepreneur Award.
In 1980, John returned to his family home building business of 50 years and John pioneered
many multi-million dollar developments including wetlands, commercial and residential projects
and was instrumental in the development and improvement of the City of Tarpon Springs’
downtown and tourist areas. John’s commitment to his hometown is exemplified by his
significant role in establishing new cultural events such as the “Symphony on the Bayou” and
“Apollo Festival” and his continued support of the annual “Epiphany Celebration.” John
considers that his life was blessed when at the age of 16; he was the one out of dozens of young
men to retrieve the cross in the annual Epiphany dive.
In 1990, John expanded his role in real estate by establishing a local branch of a national
mortgage company. Here he pioneered telemarketing and in-home loan closings. The success of
his methods earned him the President’s Award for achieving $100 million in loan originations.
Specifically in 1991, Home Saving Mortgage Corporation expanded their core business of
offering A and B Loans to include equity lines and business loans. In 1998, John introduced the
Smart Loan, a California 1% option product which was not being marketed in Florida.
Beginning in 1999, John turned his attention to marketing so that these products would become
available to more home and business owners. To this end, he developed television
programming, internet based resources and mall kiosk retail locations to provide the consumer
with the information to make wise choices about mortgages and other asset financing. The
conventional real estate finance model no longer worked and the company was discontinued in
2010.
The new Home Saving Solutions, LLC was established in 2009 started into home rehab;
pioneered creative and owner finance, lease option. Loan modifications, workouts, short sales
and loan extensions.
John enjoys saltwater fishing, backgammon, cooking, growing orchids and his 3 children, who
