Through the first nine months of 2022, Movement funded just under $20 billion in residential mortgages, according to data from Inside Mortgage Finance. Movement says it employs more than 4,000 people across 650 branches and operates in 50 states. Like most other mortgage lenders, it has made several rounds of cuts this year as interest rate hikes crushed mortgage demand.
