Dickinson Business Finance

Mr and Mrs A had recently purchased a gaming machine rental company for £550,000. Included in the sale were £200,000 of relatively new machines. Shortly after the purchase trade took a higher than average seasonal drop off and they were looking to raise cash quickly. Upon being introduced by their accountant, DBF were able to re-finance the machines over a 2 year period, freeing up over £100,000. Since that time DBF have financed all their new purchases.

Mr F wished to purchase a freehold shop in Bristol for £380,000. DBF were able to arrange a mortgage of £330,000 within 24 hours. The mortgage is over 30 years with the first two years being interest only. Once the client had purchased the shop we were able to finance the shopfitting and alarm system over 5 years.

Mr M had purchased a freehold investment property in Bristol with a short term loan of £600,000 secured on it. Due to delays in planning he was coming under pressure from his creditors. DBF were able to arrange a secured loan of £135,000 in 4 working days. The development is now progressing well and the property is valued today at £2.5m.

Mr D runs a company involved in testing computer software. He felt his bank were not supporting the growth of the company. Since getting to know him DBF have financed about £90,000 of test equipment, and also a new Ford Transit, both at better rates than his existing bank.

In early 2011 a tenanted pub wished to finance £18,000 for some new catering equipment. Despite being turned down by 5 lenders DBF were able to agree a facility over 2 years in less than 24 hours. DBF have also been able to re-finance a vehicle for the tenant. Again within a few hours.

We have helped many other businesses to achieve their goals by taking an interest in the clients, not just "ticking boxes".
