Kennel Finance
We have several lenders who are happy to assist with kennel finance. Since the credit crunch the banks have hardened their lending criteria so now at least a 50% cash deposit is necessary to be able to purchase. We are able to offer a tailor made package, prepared by a banker with 15 years experience in a major lending unit, for presentation of your business plan. A good business plan is half way to obtaining the funding that you need - please call for further details.
