“Because they know exactly what the lenders are looking for, Goodman’s input can prevent red tape and delays. The speed with which funding can be put in place is crucial to many companies I work with, as a slow response could affect their ability to even survive.
“With its wide range of lenders and relationships, Goodman can also find a product that is right for the client, and they often go the extra mile by looking beyond the immediate funding needs to other ways to add value, such as accessing available grants.
“Even with the clients I work with, who aren’t in the best financial shape, Goodman have always managed to find the right funding.”
