First Financial in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, FL

Jelena Kuchar was amazing! We were able to get through the funding process for my new franchise at break neck speed! So thankful fer her knowledge and expertise! I would absolutely recommend her!

Karen, Good evening. I wanted to thank you so much for guiding me through the SBA Loan process. Your help, advice, and encouragement helped draw the process to a very successful conclusion. I now am a new and growing Master Franchisee with the System4 brand. Providing Facility Services Management to my clients throughout the East Tennessee Valley. It certainly is a daunting task setting up ones own business and securing the lending required to be successful. Your knowledge of the SBA process and financial instruments available made all the difference in my own confidence level. Thank you again for all your help and the hard work of your entire office team. Positively, Ray President/Owner System4 of East Tennessee

First Financial - Karen Newell and her team are exceptional at lending. I had attempted to use a local lender and unfortunately, after months of meetings and paperwork, it became evident that my local lender was not adequately versed in the SBA program I was interested in. A business mentor recommended that I reach out to First Financial. Karen and her team were able to guide me through the process. With their expertise, I closed my SBA loan and can now move forward. I highly recommend them.

Cindy, Your team did a great job at helping me get funded for the Mr. Appliance franchise. Even though the holidays threw my timeline off a little bit, Eddy did a great job at keeping the ball rolling. You and I talked for the first time on November 3, 2016 and the money was in the bank this week, Monday January 30, 2017. In less than 3 months from our initial contact you helped me start my dream. I have referred your team to several people and hope they choose this route to help them grow their businesses. Thank You! and have a blessed week, Stewart Jefcoat President Mr. Appliance of Oconee
