The benefit of coming to West One is that we work at speed, we are consistent, and go the extra mile when hurdles crop up to get funds delivered to our clients. West One is motivated and strives to build lasting relationships with their clients so they return to us.

This eradicated any delays to the project kick-off date and the builders were able to get on sight quickly to start the project. The demolition of the warehouse and the construction of the units was successful and on time and having the finance delivered on time was a big part of that.
