Here is the company's information: Here is the information for this company:

This is how they work. They claim you can get into a house, either for rent or rent to own without a background check. They, however, will either post an ad for an address that is not listed with them or claim that they can not release any information (address, status of the house, ect) until you submit an application which will cost you. They provide you absolutely no paperwork or any kind of verification that you filled out an application and then ask you to sign up with them on their website. To sign up on their site you put in your name, e-mail address, phone number, zip code, billing address, and your credit / check card number with the expiration date and security code.

They use two different websites: https://www.firsthousefinancial.com/index.php?aff=1106 ; and http://www.NewLineEquity.com .

They have 4 addresses listed for their company, all of which are most likely false:

New Line Equity
1201 Lawton St
(between 18th Ave & 19th Ave)
San Francisco, CA 94122
Neighborhood: Inner Sunset

USA:
The First House Financial Corporation
120 Walti St.
Santa Cruz, CA 95060

First House Financial 
755 Baywood Dr. Second Floor, 
Petaluma, CA 94954

Europe:
The First House Financial Corporation
Nancy Whiticker House
7 Old Street
Rosseau, Dominica W.I.

This is a scam people. Do not give these people your money. Happy Holidays everyone. Stay safe.

Also using the number 770-325-9318.  They are "First House Financial" - same MO as First Step Equity.

I just saw an ad for the perfect rental....figures it's fraud.  :o(

Thank you all who report these numbers, saves me the hassle of spending any time with leeches.

Still posting the fake ads on craigslist.

202 ..567..6167

I sent a note to this person on CL when the rent was just too cheap to pass up, but also believe, and this is what I received: 'Hello, I can see you are interested in the ad I have pasted.I am currently in West Africa where I work with the WEST AFRICA NETWORK FOR PEACE...' Blah blah blah - it went on for 3 paragraphs. SCAM SCAM SCAM. Do CL and others a favor and mark as SPAM so someone gets the hint.

Yes, they are still posting fake ads for apartments.

Thanks i called this number and it gave me a strange feeling so i googled it and all your comments REALLY helped....so THANKS ALLOT  i also reported them on craigslist

Thank you for the information.  I just reported this to Craig's List.

This is spam. The person uses this number to post fake advertisements for cheap houses and apartments all over the country.

Do not call this number. If you see it on craigslist, mark it as spam!

Used on Craigslist for apartments, not sure if it's legit or not.
