Frequently Asked Questions
How do you charge for your services?
We don’t take ongoing commissions, and there are no hidden costs. Instead, our fees are transparent and personalised to the level of advice you need. In your initial consultation, we’ll provide a clear outline of any costs before you decide to proceed, so you know exactly where you stand.
What can I expect from the first consultation?
Your first consultation is a chance to talk through your goals and any concerns you have about retirement. We’ll review your current financial position, explain how our process works, and outline potential costs up front.
What are the most common mistakes people make with retirement planning?
Common issues include underestimating future living expenses, delaying super contributions, overlooking aged care and healthcare costs, and leaving estate planning too late.
If you’d like to explore these areas in more depth, our Superannuation and Pension Guide, Aged Care Guide, and Estate Planning Guide provide helpful overviews.
What happens if I feel behind on my retirement savings?
It’s never too late to take action. Even if your superannuation or investments aren’t where you’d like them to be, there are strategies to catch up, restructure your portfolio, and improve your retirement income.
