Kirkland, Bellevue, and the greater Seattle Eastside move quickly, and every buyer arrives with a different picture.

Cody’s Kirkland office gives clients a real local point of contact while Movement’s lending platform supports the process behind the scenes.

The home is the reason.

Before the documents and decisions, there is a life you want the move to make possible. Take a moment to picture it.

Illustrative math only. This tool is not a rate quote, an offer of credit, a preapproval, or lending advice. The rate shown is an assumption you choose, not a rate offered by Cody Touchette or Movement Mortgage. By default, figures reflect principal and interest only. If you include taxes and insurance, the property tax rate, homeowners insurance, and HOA amounts are illustrations you set, not estimates of your actual tax bill, an insurance quote, or your association's dues. Mortgage insurance is never estimated or included. Actual rates, payments, and eligibility depend on a full application, credit review, and market conditions. Your scenario lives only in this page's address; nothing is stored or sent unless you choose to share it.

Good questions are welcome

Before you’re ready, get clear.

You do not need to have the process figured out before reaching out. That is what the conversation is for.

Ask Cody a question
01 Where should I start if I’m thinking about buying?

Start with your goals, timing, income, and budget, not a specific loan product. Cody can help identify the next useful step and explain what information will matter before you decide how to proceed.

02 Do you work with first-time homebuyers?

Yes. First-time buyers can begin with questions and learn how the process, documentation, available loan options, and qualification requirements fit their situation.

03 What areas do you serve?

Cody is based in Kirkland and works with clients across Kirkland, Bellevue, and the greater Seattle Eastside. His Movement profile also lists licenses in multiple states; see the licensing section below for the current official list.

04 Can you help if I’m self-employed?

Self-employed income often requires a closer look at documentation and the full financial picture. Cody can review your situation and explain which paths may be worth exploring. Qualification is determined case by case.

05 Will asking questions affect my credit?

A conversation by itself is not a credit authorization. Before any credit-related step, ask Cody what will happen, what permission is required, and how that step fits the process.

06 What if I’m considering a refinance?

Start with the reason you are considering it. Cody can help you compare the available information and understand whether the next step makes sense for your goals. Rates, products, and eligibility can change.

Your next move can start here

clear.
