About Ben Johnston

After a decade in the financial services and lending industry, Ben Johnston has learned what works. “It’s all about relationships,” says Johnston. “My clients very quickly figure out that I’m going to go to bat for them. They see that I’m putting together a plan that’s not just a cookie-cutter solution—instead, it’s tailor made for their unique loan situation and financial needs.” Johnston’s wide-ranging background in business systems, loan administration, and marketing make him a more effective financial professional and manager. In an industry becoming more and more driven by digital media, Johnston’s background in technology and marketing—both digital and traditional—gives him an edge in the market. With skills gained through business coursework and on-the-job experience, Johnston applies innovative business strategy and proven operations tactics to consistently meet or exceed corporate goals. Johnston’s passion for planning, problem solving, and exceeding his customers’ expectations is well-known among his professional colleagues—and his competitors. Johnston’s motto—“never leave a customer’s questions unanswered”—has been the hallmark of his successful lending career in FHA and government loans, conventional loans, FHA 203k loans, energy efficient mortgages, down payment assistance, loans for first time homebuyers, and investor loans.While it is Movement Mortgage’s goal to provide underwriting results within six hours of receiving an application, process loans in seven days, and close in one day, extenuating circumstances may cause delays outside of this window.
