The remit was to find a Bank to finance the purchase of a 3500 square foot industrial unit in Kingston, large enough to house my growing bespoke Kitchen design business and workshop. An 80% loan was achieved; amazing considering this was at the height of the credit crunch, but not surprising as I have a strong business and the guys at PFS know how to put a deal together. Excellent work!”
