Committed to Building a Community of Trusted
Private Money Lenders

In January 1999, the California Mortgage Association was created through a merger of the Mortgage Association of California (MAC) and the California Trust Deed Brokers Association (CTDBA).

Since inception, our mission has been the ongoing education of California-licensed private money lenders and the preservation of our industry through legislative review and advocacy efforts. We take pride in being the voice of trust deed lenders and investors throughout the state and always representing our industry’s best interests.

LEGISLATIVE EFFORTS & CMA-PAC

The legislative and advocacy efforts of the California Mortgage Association has made a tremendous impact in the state capital. We have an effective voice in lobbying the state legislature to make beneficial changes that impact the private mortgage industry.

To keep up with our work it is important for us to continue to secure our ability to support candidates whose views and goals are philosophically aligned with ours. That’s why we created the CMA Political Action Committee (CMA PAC). The CMA PAC is a separate entity responsible for collecting contributions for candidates who are running for the office of the California state legislature. CMA PAC provides a direct link between the mortgage industry and the public policy decision makers of California state government.

Your Support to the CMA-PAC Goes A Long Way

Your contributions to the CMA-PAC go towards CMA’s goal to protect you and your business from any legislation that may or may not affect your business. Every donation, big or small, gets us one step farther in having our opinions heard and respected when changes are being made in our state capital that impact the private mortgage industry.
