The California Mortgage Expo in Irvine this May was nothing short of monumental. Held at the Hilton Irvine/Orange County Airport, this year’s event shattered records, officially becoming the largest regional mortgage conference in the nation. With more vendors, more attendees, and more exclusive programming than ever before, Irvine was the place to be for mortgage professionals looking to stay ahead of the curve.
From the moment the doors opened, it was clear this show was going to be special. We welcomed a record-breaking number of attendees, filling the session rooms, exhibit hall, and networking spaces with non-stop activity. Originators, brokers, lenders, and industry pros from across California and beyond gathered to connect, learn, and build their businesses in this dynamic market.
A highlight of the week was the Mortgage Star West conference on Wednesday, which kicked off the event with sessions specifically designed to empower women and rising leaders in the mortgage space. The energy was palpable as attendees engaged with speakers, shared their stories, and gained insights into leadership, business growth, and navigating the evolving mortgage landscape.
Followed by our popular Build-A-Broker program, both long-time and aspiring brokers learned ways to streamline their business, stay compliant, and more.
The exhibit hall was bigger and busier than ever, showcasing an impressive lineup of vendors offering cutting-edge products, services, and solutions tailored for today’s mortgage professional. Whether attendees were seeking new tech tools, lender partnerships, or ways to streamline their operations, the expo floor was the place to find answers.
In addition to Mortgage Star West and Build-A-Broker, the Irvine Expo featured a full slate of educational sessions and exclusive programs designed to tackle the real challenges originators face. From compliance updates and Non-QM lending strategies to marketing best practices and AI innovations, attendees walked away with actionable takeaways to drive their business forward.
We’re beyond proud of what was accomplished in Irvine. This wasn’t just another conference—it set a new standard for regional mortgage events. The overwhelming turnout and enthusiastic participation proved that California’s mortgage community is vibrant, resilient, and ready to lead.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for this record-breaking event. We can’t wait to see you again next year!
