Meet PLB.
We provide professional financial brokering services for a variety of projects.
The entire team at Private Lending Brokers operate with a unified intention to help property developers bring their projects to life in a fast and efficient manner.
We are a group of professionals with broad and extensive experience in the Australian property and debt markets. This expanse of experience within our team includes: legal, accounting, financial brokering, property sales and property development.
We are extremely proud of the fact that much of our business comes from repeat clients. Many of our property developer clients see us as their external finance team, engaging us on a deal-to-deal basis for each of their projects in their pipelines.
Our high ratio of repeat clients is testimony to how much ewe value our relationships and the level of service we attach to each.

What We Value
We understand property developers better than most. This comes as a result of our business being very focussed and specialised. Property developers are our only client and therefore our entire business model is engineered around servicing property developer needs.
In working with countless property developers, we have created a business that sees our interests aligned with those of our property developer clients. Such interest alignment comes from a deep understanding of what property developers want and need.
Our business is guided by these values and we do not deviate from a strict adherence to them.
01
Transparency
We always strive to be 100% upfront, direct and honest with all stakeholders. This gives our clients a clear view into our operations and a high degree of confidence in working with us.

Our Story
Private Lending Brokers was formed and founded by our Directors Brett Macartney and Nathan Khoury, following years of independent experience in the private property debt markets.
Brett and Nathan crossed paths in the debt markets and worked together on the development of a software platform that was a first-of-its-kind in the private lending industry in Australia. This software connected finance brokers to private lenders.
This software saw Brett and Nathan study and analyse the private lending landscape in Australia - with specific focus on assessment of private lenders themselves. This process has given Brett and Nathan a unique insight into the private lenders that operate in Australia and their respective strengths.
Since launching Private Lending Brokers, and under the guidance of Brett and Nathan, our team has assessed over $1bn in property transactions across all Australian states and territories.
