Golden Bear Mortgage Corporation is a California mortgage brokerage, founded by Carson McMurtrey and Christopher Long. As brokers rather than a bank, we shop 30+ wholesale lenders to find the right rate and loan product for each client's specific situation — including conventional, FHA, VA, jumbo, DSCR, and bank statement loans. We're known for same-day pre-approvals, direct communication, and staying with clients from application through closing as a single point of contact. Whether it's a first-time buyer, moving up, refinancing, or investing in real estate, our goal is to make the loan process simple, fast, and genuinely in the clients best interest.
