Five Mistakes We Help You To Avoid
Many people think they have to sell their home to fund aged care. But advice from Aged Care Financial Advisers can show them the choices and full implications of their decisions.
Many people see RADs as lost money. Aged Care Financial Advisers can explain refunds and government guarantees as well as show clients how to make the most of Centrelink exemptions for RADs.
The rules and terms are complex and timeframes to make decisions are often limited. Aged Care Financial Advisers can help take out the stress and allow more effective decision-making in the timeframe available.
Cashflow is the big story when planning aged care costs. Aged Care Financial Advisers start with creating enough cashflow so obligations can be met and extras can be funded to improve their lifestyle.
Who doesn’t want to pay less for services? But Aged Care Financial Advisers focusses first on helping clients to afford and access the right care, and then looking at options to how to manage the affordability.

What Past Clients Say...
We were extremely pleased with the professional, expert advice that Rob provided on behalf of our aged parents who needed to move into a nursing home at relatively short notice. We were a little hesitant at first about the service not being face-to-face as we were not in the same city as Rob. As it turned out, this was not an issue at all. Rob’s processes although not face-to-face for us, nevertheless worked perfectly. We were particularly pleased with how Rob went out of his way to make sure we received his advice and his report in a very short turn around time. We needed the advice quickly and he delivered as he said he would. We have no hesitation in recommending Rob at Aged Care Financial Advisors to anyone in need of friendly, understanding, professional, expert advice on aged care financial matters.
