EquiFirst was founded in 1990 as a wholesale lender based in Charlotte, N.C. EquiFirst grew quickly as our reputation for superior customer service and broker support spread throughout the industry. In 2007 we were acquired by Barclays Capital Real Estate Holdings Inc., a subsidiary of Barclays Bank, PLC.
Today, EquiFirst is a national lender with nearly 20 years of mortgage experience and is active in both the wholesale and retail arenas. Over the years our programs have changed to maintain industry standards; but our core ideals have never varied. We continue to provide our customers with the highest levels of service, support, and mortgage expertise.
Ethics was the cornerstone of our founder’s business plan for his non-conforming lending company called EquiFirst in 1990. It continues to drive the company’s success today. From the one-man shop, EquiFirst tripled its growth year after year. Now, with top leadership, sound management, sophistication and professionalism, EquiFirst brings an unmatched level of service and respect to its brokers all over the country. Today thousands of brokers are growing their business with EquiFirst as their lender of choice.
We believe in rewarding extraordinary effort.
We believe that challenges and inspiration go hand in hand with happiness, pride in your work and generous rewards. That's the entrepreneur that lives within us.
We work hard. We play hard. We believe in giving back to our communities, we give you time to do your part.
Maybe that's part of why we're growing so fast, double digit growth or more from day one. Come grow with us.
The sky is the limit.
EquiFirst is a premier non-conforming lender that promises its clients 'Non-Conforming Results.' How? We require “thinking outside the box.” We believe that thinking closes more non-conforming loans than automation and answering machines and email combined. Our commitment to excellent service helps us deliver 'Non-Conforming Results.'

Committed to the personal and professional growth of our employees, we strive to create a family environment at EquiFirst where work and fun go hand in hand.
