What our clients are saying about us on Google

  • We cannot speak highly enough of the professionalism and expertise provided by Tracy Ryan and the team at PPlan. We engaged Tracy’s services after facing multiple complex breaches related to a property in Brisbane. These issues spanned a wide range of matters including land clearing, bushfire ratings, revegetation orders, OPW requirements, cut and fill works, slope stability, and more. Prior to working with PPlan, we had spent over a year with another town planner who had reached the limit of their capacity to assist. From the moment we engaged PPlan, it was clear we were dealing with a team of seasoned professionals who brought not only a deep knowledge of council regulations, planning laws, and legal requirements, but also a strategic, solutions-focused approach to resolving complex issues. Tracy Ryan, in particular, demonstrated an extraordinary commitment to achieving a positive outcome. Her attention to detail, relentless follow-up, comprehensive research, and clear communication set a new standard for professional service. Tracy’s ability to navigate difficult planning challenges with clarity, integrity, and determination was nothing short of exceptional. PPlan brought order and direction to what had previously felt like an impossible situation. Their fact-based, methodical approach and unwavering dedication gave us peace of mind and ultimately led to a successful resolution. In a time where genuine, client-focused service can be hard to find, PPlan stands out as a rare and exceptional business. We continue to recommend them to others without hesitation and remain deeply grateful for the incredible support and results they delivered.

  • Jeremy and the PPlan team inherited my job from a company that went into liquidation. They jumped in and sorted out the mess left behind and have been nothing but fantastic. It’s been a complicated job from the start and they navigated through keeping in constant communication and being the shining light through a very difficult process with my council. 1000% recommend and would use again in a heart beat, thanks again Jeremy.
