For almost a decade, Taite Arney has been delivering tailored finance solutions across the Illawarra and Shoalhaven, as well as right across Australia. As Director of Loan Market Kiama and Loan Market Nowra, Taite leads a growing team across both locations, having settled thousands of loans across first home buyers to seasoned investors and business owners.
At the core of Taite's brokerage is residential property lending: guiding everyday Australians through the complex process of buying, refinancing or building. Drawing on a panel of 90+ lenders, Taite takes a holistic approach — taking the time to understand each client's circumstances and goals, then educating them on the options available, so they feel empowered to make the right decision.
That commitment doesn't end at settlement; ongoing support, guidance and negotiation remain part of the service long after the loan is funded.
Beyond residential lending, Taite's experience extends to commercial lending and asset finance (car/personal loans), giving clients and referral partners a single point of contact for a broad range of funding needs.
Having grown up on the South Coast, Taite has built strong local networks over the course of his broking career, providing clients with access to trusted referral partners across the below industries:
· Real estate sales and property manangement
· Conveyancing / Solicitors
· Builders (new homes and renovations)
· Land Developers
· Buyers Agents
· Insurance Brokers
· Financial Planners
· Accountants
· Property maintenance services
