⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Brilliant service from the team at Lakeshield. 'How can we find a way to make the deal work' comes to mind, rather than putting up reasons why it doesn't fit policy.
James Alexander
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Massive shoutout to Lakeshield for saving a deal that looked completely dead. Our client was facing receivership, and with just 14 days to complete a £945k re-bridge on a £1.4m property.
