A man has been arrested on the NSW Central Coast for questioning over the murder of father of two Malcolm Taylor.

Major crime squad detectives will travel to NSW tomorrow to start extradition proceedings after the 38-year-old was arrested in Wyongah today.

Police believe Mr Taylor, 37, is dead but his body has not been found.

They would not reveal any details about the arrested man.

Forensic experts started searching a Kenwick home on Monday as part of the inquiry but homicide detectives have not revealed what sparked the search or whether anything has been found at the State Housing Commission-owned property.

Mr Taylor has not been seen since April 29 and has not spoken to his family nor touched his bank accounts.

The 37-year-old was last seen around Kenwick and Orange Grove on the afternoon of Wednesday, April 29, after catching a train about midday from the city to the Maddington-Kenwick area.

Police had said Mr Taylor was well known in that Kenwick area but would not reveal details about his last known movements.

Mr Taylor lived with friends in Armadale but was in regular contact with his son, 18, and daughter, 14.

Last week, police said it was very unusual for Mr Taylor to not be in touch with his two teenage children or other relatives.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
