 As part of the client interview and fact finding process our franchisees will determine the clients requirements, this may range from  a purchase of an owner occupier property, refinance and debt consolidation, motor vehicle lease, to  property investment and so on. Where a client has indicated an interest in property investment our franchisees will provide a financial analysis to determine serviceability and affordability and then provide an introduction to  accredited property specialists to assist the clients in selecting the appropriate property.  We give the customer back the savings when purchasing an investment property from our as it is a ‘business to business purchase – not retail to business.
