Private Finance launches high-net-worth broker team

Private Finance has launched a prime Central London brokerage team dedicated to the £1m plus market.

The team has been established due to the high volume of enquiries Private Finance has received for specialist, bespoke funding for million-pound properties.

The team is lead by Jonathan Harris, who previously worked at Savills Private Finance for ten years, who will work alongside Tim Nye, one of the founding members of Knight Frank Finance.

Harris and Nye will be joined in September by another top-performing Savills broker, Adrian Anderson.

All three specialise in arranging large loans for high-net-worth clients.

The team will be based in Mayfair and will manage Private Finance's exclusive relationship with Strutt & Parker and Jackson-Stops & Staff, as well as other introducing sources.

Simon Checkley, managing director of Private Finance, says: ‘The prime Central London market continues to be buoyant and it became clear that there was desperate need for a highly-focused team based in the West End to look after our estate agency partners Strutt & Parker and Jackson-Stops & Staff, as well as other introducer sources.

"I am delighted to welcome Jonathan, Tim and Adrian to Private Finance and am sure they will be hugely successful in taking the company forward. With Melanie Bien joining us in the past week as director of communications, this is an exciting time for Private Finance."
