About Shane

A broker who's genuinely been in your shoes.

"I named LoanBuddy because that's exactly what I want to be — your buddy, in your corner from first appointment all the way to settlement and beyond."

I've been a property investor since 2015 — so when I talk about investment lending, I'm speaking from personal experience, not just industry knowledge. That passion for property is what led me to broking, and to starting LoanBuddy.

What my clients value most is the communication — always knowing what's happening, feeling supported, never having to chase me.

FAQ

Common questions

In most cases there is no fee for our service. If a fee does apply, you'll be told upfront before anything is submitted. Lenders pay us a commission on settlement and we're legally required to act in your best interests.
Often yes. If your property has increased in value you may be able to access equity as a deposit for your next purchase. We assess this carefully to ensure the strategy is sustainable.
A bridging loan is useful when you want to buy a new property before your existing one sells — so you don't have to rent in between or rush a sale. We model the costs and peak debt with you upfront so there are no surprises.
Depending on the lender it can take anywhere from a couple of days to over a week. We manage the entire process and keep you updated throughout.
Not at all. We work with clients across NSW and Queensland, and can assist anyone in Australia. Location is no barrier.
A decline from one lender doesn't mean no. We assess your full scenario and find the lender whose policies suit your situation.
ID, payslips or tax returns, bank statements, and a summary of existing debts. We provide a personalised checklist based on your situation.
Lenders pay us a commission when your loan settles. This doesn't affect your rate and all commissions are disclosed upfront.
