ID Advice

Comprehensive services for every stage of life.

Super

Is your super invested appropriately for your age? Is your super making strong returns? Are you sure you’re paying low fees?

If you cannot answer a definitive yes to all of these questions, you might be leaving money on the table for your retirement.

Past your house, super is likely to be your largest asset at retirement. Why not make a small investment now to have confidence that you are on the right track. After all, over 10% of your wages are being paid there.

Insurance

Have you considered what would happen to you and your family if you could never work again due to sickness or injury. What if you passed away?

This is a difficult subject to think about. But these are questions we will ask you when talking about insurance. The most valuable asset that almost all of us hold is the ability to earn an income.

The peace of mind knowing that your family will be okay if you’re no longer able to earn an income is very powerful. This is why we’ve made it more affordable to take out adequate insurance coverage. By not accepting commissions, we ensure that you pay at least 25% less than the equivalent policy with the typical adviser.

Investing

Do you have some excess cashflow and you’re not sure what to do with it? Do you have cash and are disappointed receiving bank interest?

Starting to invest personally can be a daunting step for many. There are simply too many options out there. ETFs vs Managed Funds, Index vs Active, Broker vs Platform.

We can help simplify this process and put in place a plan to build an investment portfolio that is easy to understand and inexpensive to manage.

Cashflow & Budgeting

Are you in control of your finances or are they controlling you? Do you have a budget in place, or just hope theres some left at the end of the month?

Effective cashflow management and budgeting are the foundation of financial stability and confidence. Let us work together to create a personalised budgeting plan that aligns with your financial goals and priorities.

Retirement

Most people don’t consider what their retirement looks like until it’s right around the corner. It's a hard topic so is often pushed to the back of your mind.

This is an issue because there are small things you can put in place 10, 20 and 30 years before retirement that may help you generate a significantly better outcome with very little input.

No matter your stage of life, it is important to talk about retirement even if you’re not sure what it will look like. Putting in place small changes now can help to expand the options you eventually will have.

Taxation

Are you aware of the potential tax implications of your financial decisions? Understanding taxation is crucial for managing your finances effectively.

While we can’t provide specific tax advice, we can help you navigate general tax considerations and connect you with qualified accountants who can offer personalised tax guidance tailored to your unique circumstances. By working together, we can ensure that your financial plan considers the broader tax landscape, empowering you to make informed decisions that align with your financial goals.

Estate Planning

Have you considered how your assets will be distributed after you’re gone? What about who will help you if you can no longer look after yourself?

Estate planning is not just for the wealthy; it’s about securing the future of your loved ones and ensuring your wishes are carried out.

We can help you understand the mechanics of what happens when you pass away and how to set yourself up to make sure your wishes are adhered to.

Property

Advice is not all shares and super. We understand that the investment most are comfortable with is property. We don’t intend on changing that.

Our unique position allows us to incorporate your property or vision of future properties into a comprehensive and diversified plan of your financial future. This is because we are not paid according to how much money you invest with us, we just want to see you achieve the ideal outcome for you.

SMSF

Are you considering a self-managed super fund (SMSF)? SMSFs offer greater control and flexibility but come with added responsibilities and regulations.

We are authorised to explore both the benefits and the considerations of an SMSF to your personal scenario and work out a suitable way forward.

We can also help you put in place the required investment strategy document that is required of you as a trustee.

Our SMSF specific site is here.

Debt Management

Are you looking to regain control of your finances and make the most out of your debt? Is your debt working for you or are you working for it?

Effective debt management is about more than just paying off what you owe—it’s about optimizing your debt to work for you rather than against you.

We can help you develop a debt management strategy that focuses on leveraging debt as a tool for wealth creation and financial growth. By understanding your financial goals and priorities, we can tailor a plan that allows you to efficiently manage your debt while still achieving your long-term objectives.
