I'm a specialist commercial finance broker with 16 years of experience helping Australian business owners access commercial property finance. As founder of Smart Business Plans, I've overseen $550 million in commercial finance across more than 3,300 clients, with a 92% approval rate working across a panel of 60+ specialist lenders. My expertise sits at the intersection of commercial property, business finance, and wealth strategy — particularly for small to medium business owners looking to buy their own premises, invest through their SMSF, or fund development projects. I work exclusively in the commercial space, which means I specialise where the major banks often can't or won't go. I'm also the author of The Premise Effect (2026), which makes the case for why Australian business owners are leaving millions on the table by renting rather than owning their business premises. I'm available to comment on: commercial property finance, SMSF borrowing, business lending, commercial mortgage rates, Australian property market trends, and small business wealth building.

I have accumulated well over thirty years of experience in real estate and real estate finance. I have sold and/or underwritten over two billion dollars in real estate lending products. I have managed a lender bank portfolio of millions of dollars of real estate loans including responsibility for sales of bank owned properties. In 2018, I established and still manage a successful real estate brokerage offering property management of residential rental units, and also on and off market residential sales. I developed a passion for The Finger Lakes several years ago; boating, kayaking, and vacationing on the lakes. Ultimately, I purchased a home on Canandaigua Lake and live there year-round with my wife Tracy and two golden retrievers; Midas and Harper (they love the lakes too!) I am currently a water quality monitor for The Canandaigua Lake Watershed Association. I plan to continue learning about lake initiatives and stewardship with them. What I have found discouraging are experiences that I have seen both buyers and sellers of lake homes experience. Having sold lots of houses does not equate to understanding the nuances of lake real estate. Lake real estate is not only about housing. It is about a lifestyle. There are many important considerations, not only from the perspective of if a house is a good investment, but also how it supports a lifestyle. There are concerns to consider with a property on a dynamic body of water.

Arranging finance for clients at home and overseas. About me: https://www.ukexpatmortgage.com/about/luther-yeates/

From a young age, I recognised the transformative power of property investment. Starting my journey in my teenage years, I immersed myself in the intricacies of the real estate market, driven by a passion to secure financial independence and help others achieve the same. My professional journey began in the banking world at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, where I gained valuable insights into financial systems and the importance of strategic planning. However, I soon realised that relying solely on traditional financial avenues might not suffice for a secure retirement. This epiphany led me to delve deeper into data-driven real estate investments. By analysing unbiased data, I identified lucrative market trends and opportunities, enabling me to build a million-dollar property portfolio across Australia. Transitioning from the corporate world, I joined Ray White Real Estate as a selling agent. In this role, I successfully facilitated numerous property sales, ensuring clients received top value for their assets. During this period, I noticed a significant gap: while sellers had dedicated agents, buyers often lacked equivalent support. This observation inspired me to establish The Realta – Property Buyers Agency. At The Realta, we are committed to providing personalised guidance to property buyers. Our mission is to simplify the buying process, empowering clients with data-driven insights and expert advice. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer or an experienced investor, we offer tailored strategies to meet your unique needs. Our team specialises in identifying high-growth investment locations across Australia, ensuring clients make informed decisions to build and diversify their portfolios. By leveraging comprehensive market analyses, we recommend opportunities that align with individual financial goals. I am passionate about educating others on the benefits of property investment. I believe in the power of informed decision-making and strive to share my knowledge through workshops, seminars, and one-on-one consultations. In 2025, as the property market continues to evolve, I am excited to explore new opportunities and assist clients in navigating the dynamic landscape. Whether you're considering investing in emerging markets like Melbourne, Darwin, NT, or seeking to expand your existing portfolio, my team and I are here to guide you every step of the way. Connect with me to discuss how we can achieve your property investment goals together.
