AmeriFirst Financial Corporation has expanded its footprint to the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains with the opening of a new branch in Southern California, located in Rancho Cucamonga, operating under the name, “AmeriTrust Home Mortgage” to avoid confusion with Amerifirst Financial Inc., who also operates in the southwest region.
