We're more than a mortgage broker.

We're your strategic debt partner.

Not all mortgage brokers are made equal

We set ourselves apart from other mortgage professionals by going beyond rate shopping or simply finding home loans with fancy features.

We’re not order takers; we’re strategic thinkers, always exploring the alternatives to offer you savings, minimise risks for better tax and wealth outcomes.

This approach is backed by our vastly experienced and knowledgeable team, offering a level of service far superior to what you might find elsewhere - at no additional cost to you.

Meet the Team

  • It's about the big financial picture: strategy and structure that makes a significant difference (along with any money we can save you).

    My Debt Adviser is a team of lending experts with hands-on experience and deep understanding of the Australian banking and lending sector.

    Our expertise spans commercial and residential lending but with the perspective of extensive team experience in financial planning and accounting.

    We’re recognised by top lenders across Australia with access to a number of the Private Banks and elite broker channels.

    This means we can often offer our clients special deals and strategic insights that you generally won’t receive through regular brokers or bank branches.

    With us, you get insider access and knowledge that makes a real difference in your wealth building journey.

  • Phillip Allen

    DIRECTOR

    As the founder and director of My Debt Adviser, Phillip brings over two decades of experience in finance and financial planning to the role, the majority gained working independently in his own businesses.

    This extensive experience has not only enriched his personal business acumen but also deepened his understanding of the needs of his clients and strategic partners.

    Holding degrees in both Commerce and Economics, and with a decade spent as a financial adviser, Phillip's expertise is comprehensive and well-rounded. His decision to focus on clients' debt needs was fueled by his frustration with the substandard outcomes often provided by standard brokers and banks directly.

    Phillip recognised the essential need for clients to have a debt adviser - someone who could intelligently coordinate their financial needs and help them navigate the complex array of information and options in the market.
