I would recommend Lion Finance to all. As an IFA I have used Lion Finance for commercial and venture capital financing. I find their breadth of products and contact pool extraordinary. As well as securing the financing we were looking for the service received was polite, fast and efficient. I have no hesitation of recommending Lion Finance to anyone that may require financial advice.

This was the easiest place to get a Loan for our pool. I didn't have to go through crazy hoops or spend time gathering tons of things like bank statements. There is no penalty for paying the loan off early so that is great cause the payments are low enough I can pay double and pay it off quicker.

We work often with the Lyon Financial team. They are always super friendly and very helpful. They are also quick to respond to questions and always so attentive to the details. The payment turnaround is super quick and so easy. They make the loan process and payment process go so smoothly for all parties involved. We love when our clients come in and we find out they are financing through Lyon Financial.

I highly recommend Lyon Financial to other pool builders and backyard renovators, as well as, any swimming pool client that are looking to finance their new dream backyard. You won't regret going with this financial team.
