Here is what our clients say about us…
“….We had a tight time frame to have finance in place to purchase our Kwik Kopy franchise. You set to work straight away and we had conditional approval of our loan within a few days. You took care of all the paperwork and the usual frustrations associated with dealing with banks.
Setting up a business is challenging and time-consuming. Having a professional such as you on our side, able to take away the burden of researching and arranging finance, definitely helped us to get through the process and retain our sanity.
We were extremely impressed with the service you gave us, Greg, and have no hesitation in recommending Franchise Finance Professionals to others considering purchasing or refinancing a franchise business.”
Madonna, Kwik Kopy Printing Centre, St Leonards, NSW
“….My two first attempts at obtaining loans direct from a bank and a financial institution failed miserably. There was no interest in supplying loans past the initial first questions. My first thought was not to bother with purchasing a business, but first thought to try a broker before giving up. Lucky for us I rang Greg Bartels, who started the ball rolling from day one and with his perseverance succeeded where we didn’t, we haven’t looked back….”
Peter and Sue, Kwik Kopy Printing Centre, Adelaide, SA
“I would have no hesitation in recommending the services of Property Finance Professionals. Our decision to use their services resulted in a more beneficial loan structure and a significant saving in interest. Nothing was too hard for them and any issues that arose were dealt with professionally and efficiently….”
Neil, Kwik Kopy, Annandale, NSW
“Ours was an unusual situation as we were living in New Zealand …. Our plan was to relocate to Australia and open the Athlete’s Foot franchise in a new development in Noosa. We had no knowledge of the way finance is arranged in Australia but you immediately put us at ease since you are obviously an expert in the field, especially in relation to financing a franchise. You explained your role as a mortgage broker and exactly what we could expect from you and your company. Understanding the different loans offered by the banks was complicated but you patiently went hrough the pros and cons of each…. You were always available to talk through our concerns and reassured us that you were looking after both the big picture and the detail. You kept us informed every step of the way about the progress of our application and your co ordination and diligence ensured that we had the loan arranged within our short timescale….
We believe your skills and expertise offer a package that is second to none and we have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the services of Franchise Finance Professionals.”
Christina and Jef, The Athlete’s Foot, Noosa, QLD
“(Franchise Finance Professionals) was recommended to us by The Athlete’s Foot Head Office as we had a complex financial situation to straighten out. We were the franchise owners of 2 Athletes Foot stores and had various business and other loans secured against the business and our home. We contacted Franchise Finance Professionals to find out whether we could rationalise our finances and save some money.
Greg …. came up with several restructure options all of which would have put us in a much better position… added to which (FFP) negotiated an interest rate significantly lower than those of the loans being refinanced….
We were so impressed with Greg’s professionalism and fiscal know how that we recommend to anyone looking for expert assistance in …. buying a franchise – give Franchise Finance Professionals a ring.”
