Indian Land, SC, April 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pete Zaft is back at Movement Mortgage.
Zaft rejoins the company in the Tennessee market after previously spending five years at Movement, where he surpassed $1 billion in total production. In 2025, he closed $175 million in loan volume, ranking him in the top 0.1% of loan officers nationally. Most recently, he earned the title of the No. 1 producer in the Nashville market.
