Commercial lending expertise – built on experience, delivered with care.
I’m John Catera, Commercial Loan Officer at AmeriCU, serving members in Utica/Rome, Syracuse, and Albany. Since 1990, I’ve been in commercial real estate mortgages, focusing on helping businesses secure financing that fits their goals.
What I appreciate most about AmeriCU is the collaboration and helpfulness of my team. When we work together, we deliver a seamless experience for our members – making even complex transactions feel manageable.
Outside the office, I enjoy boating and riding my motorcycle. Ready to explore financing options for your business? Let’s connect and make it happen.
