For the last 2 years (2021/22 and 2022/23) I was ranked, by leading mortgage aggregator Loan Market, in the Top 20% of Finance Brokers in Australia based on $ volume of client funding settled, number of clients and, most importantly, my client satisfaction rating.
I work with clients Australia-wide and while my experience spans most industries my areas of specialty are:
- Business Finance – SME
- Franchise Finance
- Rent Roll Finance
- Service Station Finance
- Supermarket Finance
The Green Finance Group Team have access to a panel of over 60 banks and lenders and hundreds of commercial, equipment and residential finance products and I am in an excellent position to know which bank will be more receptive to your industry or business type at any point in time.
Experience that makes a difference
As a franchise and small business finance specialist you could say I have ‘an insider’s advantage’ when it comes to securing my clients a great deal on finance.
Over the years I have established excellent relationships with bank decision-makers, and I know exactly what lenders are looking for when it comes to positioning your business proposition comprehensively.
Making sure your finance package is structured correctly is what’s important. Loan structure equals increased freedom and control and that’s critical for business success. Loan structure will differ for every business but ideally will be considerate of your cashflow needs both short and long term and will give you access to equity as your business grows.
Just as importantly, I’m not afraid of negotiating when it comes to getting my clients better loan terms and conditions. My team of specialist residential finance brokers can even help you with your own personal, home or investment finance needs.
Franchise Finance – it doesn’t need to be hard
My clients include business owners from some of the country’s best known franchise names and I have an excellent working knowledge of the opportunities and challenges faced on both business and industry levels.
Securing competitive business or franchise finance needn’t be as difficult as many business owners are led to believe. The key is knowing which banks or lenders really want your business.
A bank’s appetite for business lending changes with market conditions and internal benchmarks which is why approaching the same bank you use for your personal finances isn’t always the right solution.
