  The notion of securing a Small Business Administration Loan for a new Veteran Owned and Operated Franchise such as mine, particularly since it is my first journey into the world of business ownership could have been daunting. However, Eddie Duncan and First Financial made that process one in which I did not have to be concerned. Their knowledge of SBA Loans and its process along with the high-touch customer engagement, made my experience simple and timely. Without the help of Eddie and First Financial, my dream of business ownership would most certainly not have been possible. I cannot thank Eddie and First Financial enough for making this step in my journey a success!

  The First Financial team is awesome in every respect. I was working with a client that had some unique funding challenges, and the team worked tirelessly to find a solution for him and they got him funding. My client was initially working with another institution and was unable to secure funding. Mery Perez and Dan Pace told us they could get it done and after dodging countless roadblocks the deal got done. Great job by an absolutely exceptional team!

  I cannot say enough kind things about Josie Price! She made the incredibly daunting process of applying for an SBA loan doable. It was still a challenging process but she walked us through every step along the way. When I was feeling too stressed to finish, she calmly reassured me that we would get through the process. Without her, I don't know that we would have had the perseverance to get through the process. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you Josie!!

  I cannot thank Cindy Watson, Eddie Duncan and the entire team at First Financial enough for the incredible attention and guidance I received during the loan processing. They have a collection of experience, knowledge and valuable insight that makes the entire process seamless. I was in great hands and kept abreast of the progress at every step along the way. I am grateful for the experience I had with First Financial.

  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.

  Karen Perkins is a superb loan officer. She will advocate for you and help you along the way of what can be an arduous process. If you are referred to First Financial, do yourself and your business a favor and specifically ask to work with Karen! You won't regret it.
