Our Testimonials

Managing Director
Joseph Palmer & Sons
“I was initially referred to Nathan when a particular need arose for finance and on asking a few respected professional resources if they knew of anyone credible, knowledgeable and above all…”.
independent, Nathan was the recommended name that came up during each discussion. As I obviously valued the resources I had enquired from I had no hesitation in contacting him. He impressed me immediately with his prompt service and attending to my office to take a detailed brief. He asked probing questions in order to build a profile and be in a strong position to determine what type of loan would be appropriate and best fit my needs. Being in my own business and having a good relationship with my business banker I had done my own homework prior to meeting with him and had a reasonable understanding on what was on offer. Nathan came back to me within 24 hours with a far superior facility in a variety of ways than I could have achieved on my own and being time poor he alleviated all the time consuming requirements that I would otherwise have been required to attend to. He is a hardworking, commercially intelligent professional with enormous energy and ambition. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Nathan and would welcome enquiry from anyone seeking further information and detail.
