ABOUT US
Our Story
We're a leading Shellharbour mortgage broker, now also based in Nowra and servicing the Illawarra and Shoalhaven in New South Wales. As a team, we bring together 20+ years of experience in banking and mortgage brokerage. This allows us to see your home, investment or vehicle loan from a variety of different angles to find a solution.
One of our missions has been to help those challenged when it comes to getting a loan and finding ways to make your situation work for you.
We've been able to help locals who didn't believe they could find a solution or where situations have been too complex.
We know what it can feel like to be rejected for a loan, for a shift in mortgage rates to put financial pressure on your family or a change of lifestyle requiring a change in your financial situation.
We want to take away the stress or overwhelm you might be feeling and provide you with the peace of mind you deserve.
Our motto is "there's always a way".

SCOTT MURRAY
Mortgage Broker
I am proud to bring to you Ohana Finance. A place to come for honest informative and competitive advice about all of your lending needs.
Over the past 15 years, I have worked within the finance industry in many roles, engaging with my staff as a bank manager, mortgage broker and most recently leading a team of 20 home lenders. Now, through "my baby" Ohana Finance, I will leverage this experience to bring you a seamless and enjoyable experience as your Shellharbour mortgage broker.
My team and I are excited to work with you, be there for you and help to make your dreams come true.
I am a family man, mad sports fan and proud Wollongongian.

As the newest member of the team, I'm servicing the Shoalhaven area.
With a background as branch manager in Wollongong, loans officer and home finance manager for a major bank in Nowra, I bring a wealth of experience in finance and lending as your Nowra mortgage broker.
I have a passion for helping bring clients' visions to fruition through finding the right loan that fits their needs and outcomes.
Recently married to a local girl, I enjoy gaming, exploring the local area and bushwalking.
