I spoke with Michelle on the phone, before I met her. She was very pleasant and knowledgeable, and supportive.As well as her assistant Kayla. I met Michelle at a home buyers meeting, and although I had met her only on the phone, she knew my face and name! All the things we spoke about, and what would happen during and after closing, Michelle was very transparent, and told me exactly what I would need and what to expect. Alot of things were not surprising, although I was in the process of pursuing a covenant home loan and my first time purchasing a home. Throughout the entire process Michelle and Kayla were very supportive and always there to answer any questions that I had! I felt supported, and trusted they led me in a good direction. Thank you very much Movement Mortage and Michelle and Kayla. Michelle worked great with my Realtor, Latrice Williams from Vision Properties. Even when I was discouraged, because of changes in the Covenant program, Michelle sent me e mails in support and kind words. I felt that they were very happy that I finally found a home, just as much as I was!!

Michelle was so beyond wonderful to work with! She communicated things so clearly and made all of the scary parts of buying a first home incredibly accessible and clear. I would recommend working with her her to any home-buyers.

Michelle was very knowledgable and responsive, she made a stressful process less stressful because I felt she was looking out for for me and had my best interest in mind.

Michelle and her team were simply amazing throughout the entire process. I have used other lenders in the past, but the team at Movement stand out because of the range of products they offer, their knowledge and insight, and proactive communication throughout the entire process. Could not have asked for a better team to help guide me and my wife through financing our new family home.

Joseph S.

Amazing communication and quick response times. Very knowledgeable about every step and answered every question we had.

Charles V.

I've worked with many lenders, and Michelle is one of the best. She is relatable, responsive, and an excellent communicator. She consistently closes on time, which is incredibly important when people's homes and moving plans are on the line. I highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a lender they can trust.

We are so thankful to Michelle and Kayla for everything they did for us during our home buying process. As first-time homebuyers purchasing a family home without a realtor, we had a lot of questions and uncertainty, but Michelle was there every step of the way. She answered every question quickly (almost immediately every time!) and went above and beyond to guide us through things we didn’t understand. We truly felt supported throughout the entire process, and honestly, she helped us in ways we don’t even think we would have gotten with a realtor. We never felt left in the dark, and that peace of mind meant everything to us. Michelle is the reason we are in our home today, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you again, Michelle and Kayla!

Heather C.

Michelle and Kayla were fantastic through the entire house purchase. They were patient with all my questions and made entire process easy and very enjoyable. And we even closed a week early. Wonderful team. 😊

Michelle is always available and if she isn't the best for a particular client she lets me know. I can count on her to always get my clients to the finish line. If any issues come up during a transaction they are handled without drama

Aaron L.

Michelle went above and beyond to help us know all our options, worked on getting us approved for more and found us a loan to help cover down payment assistance and closing cost which was huge for us. She also worked hard to help us close in time despite all the hoops we had to go through. Very grateful for everything she did for us!! Recommend her to everyone I know!!

Krista S.

This company went above and Beyond. They truly put in the Hard work so you can breathe .

The care and compassion that this mortgage company, lenders and team members have for the people that they work with. The time and effort that they put in to helping get the job done, and done right. I give this company and their efforts at 10 out of 10 and would refer them to any and everybody I know to be able to experience community and wealth.

Sedrick D.

Michelle and Kayla were awesome! So happy our realtor suggested them. We were not getting very far with our previous lender, poor communication, hard to get approval letters, not responsive to messages... Michelle and Kayla were fast to respond and quick to get answers. Their hard work was key in getting us into a house within our timeline. Would definitely recommend to anyone buying a home especially first time home buyers.

Jeffrey S.

Having a team who believed in me and fought for me and made this new process as smooth as it could be, is an answered prayer in itself. Thank you for all you do.

Raylene H.

Michelle was so helpful throughout this transaction!!

Aubree A.

I have never had a lender try so hard to make a smooth transaction when the buyer was on cooperative. Michelle was able to deal with a rather uncooperative buyer and get us to closing even with ITIN issues. Never before have I had an itin issue solved mid transaction .

Aaron L.

Everything!!!!!
