Real Customer Impact

"We worked with 28Watt to refinance our $800K mortgage to ING and topped up the loan by $60K to finance major home upgrades. We also accessed an additional $25K through ING's low-interest green financing. The refinancing alone saves us $180 per month, and having all our upgrade financing at competitive rates through one relationship has been incredibly convenient."
