Commercial real estate (CRE) investment manager Pallas Capital has joined the PLAN/Choice/FAST (PCF) and Loan Market lender panels. The partnership will enable Pallas Capital to offer brokers tailored lending solutions alongside excellent speed to market. 

​“It is great for Pallas Capital to join the PCF and Loan Market lender panels. We look forward to assisting brokers in all these aggregator panels with our suite of products, aimed at commercial and construction property lending. We will be offering brokers lending solutions that are tailored to their customers’ needs, with our five core loan products: investment term debt, pre-development, construction, residual stock and vacant land loans,” says Steve Lawrence, Executive Director – Lending, Pallas Capital.

​He adds, “At Pallas Capital we pride ourselves in being commercial and flexible, from negotiating LVRs in our first and second mortgage loans, to nil to minimal pre-sales for our construction loans. It has been great to catch up recently with a number of the PCF brokers at the recent Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide commercial conferences held by PCF, not only meeting brokers we already have strong relationships with, but also new brokers that we have not dealt with before. We look forward to helping them meet the needs of their borrowers.”
