Alex Pagonis — Co-Founder

Banks don't understand how tech professionals get paid. RSU income gets discounted or ignored. Vesting schedules are treated as risk. Founders borrowing on a $120k salary while their business does $3M. Startup employees with options the bank values at zero. I built Alcove Tech to fix this. We sit within Alcove — a 30-person mortgage advisory led by Chris Bates (Australia's #1 ranked broker, The Adviser 2024) that's settled $2.5B+ in home loans. Alcove Tech brings that infrastructure to the specific problem of tech compensation and lending. Before broking, I spent years in the world my clients come from. Strategy consulting at KPMG. R&D venture lending. Building a startup from scratch. I became a broker because I saw how badly tech professionals were being served. What we do: → RSU and equity income lending — we know which lenders accept it and how each one assesses it → Founder income structures — retained earnings, trust distributions, entity complexity → Liquidity event planning — timing purchases around secondaries, acquisitions, and IPOs → Expat income — international tech workers buying in Australia We've helped people from Google, Atlassian, Canva, Amazon, Eucalyptus, Uber, and Flare HR buy property.
