The service from Zoe at SWBF was great. We purchased a HMO from auction with a complex long term lease in place. Zoe guided us through the bridging finance to ensure we could complete within the 6 weeks. Zoe became an essential point of contact, providing a solution to our long term mortgage requirements.

Raising the finance on this property presented many curve balls and complications, however thanks to Zoe we completed on time and on budget.

Thank you for assisting Essential 6 Ltd in negotiating a commercial mortgage with favourable rates enabling us to successfully complete on our new business premises.

The guidance and commercial acumen that you provided was sound and greatly assisted us in the process.

I am so pleased that I decided to speak with you before starting my search for a lifestyle change.

I had always thought I would like to run my own business and after many months and considerable research I decided that a B&B business would suit my skills and lifestyle.

Your invaluable advice at the outset, your help in negotiating with the agent, your focus on making sure I decided with my head rather than heart, together with helping to make the whole thing happen, made the journey a lot less stressful than I thought it would be.

Your help with the commercial agency selling the business, felt that I had someone in my corner. Your help finding the right finance package, your help with the accountant and solicitor was so important to me.

And what I really did appreciate, was your follow up chats and practical advice after I moved in an started to run my business. I would highly recommend this approach for both existing and new owners.

It was an absolute pleasure working with SWBF and we would highly recommend them to other companies seeking development finance.

We were introduced to this amazing company after several stressful years of expensive failures trying to obtain funding on a development site with other agents.

From the first introduction to the first drawdown of the loan we were personally guided and supported through every process.

Our advisor worked above and beyond his instructions paying particular attention to all our concerns, whilst addressing our needs and giving us options on the best way forward.

We were kept fully informed throughout by email, phone and in person and were always confident that our advisor had our best interests in hand.

The obvious care and attention we received throughout was greatly reassuring as was the obvious wealth of experience our financial advisor could offer in his field of work.

We will definitely be using SWBF again and cannot thank them enough.
