[AUSTIN, TX] – Movement Mortgage, a national top 10 retail mortgage lender, is excited to announce the addition of Joe Thompson as Regional Director. In the role, Thompson will serve more than 60 loan officers across Texas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico.
Joe Thompson (NMLS# 293472) has more than 20 years of sales leadership experience in the region. As the Senior Vice President/Regional Sales Manager at PrimeLending, he oversaw $1 billion in annually funded retail volume across Houston, Austin, San Antonio, and Laredo.

"Movement is the only lender that gives nearly 50% of its profits, manufactures originations at a high level, generates creative content and branding, leverages innovative products & technologies, and has a customer-for-life mentality,” says Thompson. “Casey Crawford has assembled an all-star cast of forward-thinking leaders, and I feel extremely fortunate for this opportunity to serve alongside them.
