£120,000.00
Amount
7.9% APR
Rate
3 Days
Funded in

As a returning Sorbus Finance customer, our client already understood the value of having an independent finance broker working on their behalf.

However, the available rate was 9.9% APR. For a high-value motorhome purchase, even a relatively small difference in APR can have a significant impact on the overall cost of finance. Our challenge was simple: could we use our lender network and market knowledge to secure a more competitive funding solution without compromising on the structure of the deal?
