TONY DENNY

Founder & CEO

The founder of Central Real Capital, Tony is an entrepreneurial businessman who spent 25 years in Eastern Europe establishing a motor vehicle distribution group that became one of the largest automotive dealership networks in the world, buying and selling over 1.5 million cars and growing to over 4,000 employees across 40 sites in five countries.

Tony publicly listed the company in 2007 and 8 years later delisted and sold to private equity. Tony then established the internationally renowned Gosford Classic Car Museum, one of the largest privately owned car collections in the world, and Central Real, a fully integrated builder and developer whose capabilities included acquisition, development, construction, investment, sales and customer service.

Having invested over $400 million into regional development, Tony could see the underlying frustration of borrowers when it came to bank funding and saw an opportunity to provide a less constrained and accelerated lending process. From this, Central Real Capital was born, offering independent and innovative lending solutions for residential, commercial and development loans.
