Aged care decisions are expensive, time-critical, and full of rules that can be hard to interpret. We created Aged Care Financial Advisers to help families understand their options and make confident decisions before anything becomes irreversible.
Rob Laurie has provided financial advice since 2012 and holds a Master of Financial Planning. Rob is an Authorised Representative (AR No. 425270) of Lifespan Financial Planning Ltd (AFSL 229892). RJL Financial Pty Ltd (ABN 91 600 073 630), trading as Aged Care Financial Advisers, is a Corporate Authorised Representative (CAR No. 463041) of Lifespan Financial Planning Ltd.
Rob is also an Aged Care Steps Accredited Aged Care Professional™, with specialist training focused on both the technical rules and the practical implementation of aged care advice.
Our service is delivered Australia-wide via online and phone meetings, because many families don’t live near a specialist adviser — and adult children are often coordinating care from a different town or state. Our process is designed to give you clarity, modelling, and a clear path forward, wherever you are.
Are you finding the aged care process confusing and intimidating?
We’ll walk you through every step of the process, so you can relax knowing that your loved one is in good hands.
An aged care financial adviser helps families understand the costs of aged care and how different choices affect cashflow, Age Pension and the estate. We model options such as keeping or selling the home, paying a RAD vs DAP, and structuring assets to reduce avoidable fees. The goal is simple: help you make confident decisions before anything becomes irreversible.
Yes — most of our work is delivered Australia-wide via online meetings (Google Meet) and phone. This makes it easy for adult children and family members in different locations to join the same meeting. You get the same advice and modelling as an in-person appointment, without the travel.
Aged care has its own set of rules and time pressures — and small mistakes can cost families thousands. A specialist aged care adviser focuses on Centrelink/DVA interactions, accommodation payments, means-tested fees, and strategy implementation. If you’re making decisions under time pressure, specialist advice can pay for itself quickly by avoiding expensive missteps.
Yes. We can provide aged care financial advice that is purely strategic — focused on decisions, modelling, and the financial impacts — without recommending products. If a product recommendation becomes relevant (for example after a home sale or when investing proceeds), we’ll explain why and only proceed if you want that advice. Many clients never need product advice at all.
We use fixed-fee packages so you know the cost upfront before committing. The right package depends on how complex the situation is (for example, whether there are investments, superannuation, or just the home and cash). The first step is a free introductory call where we’ll confirm whether we can add value and which option fits best.

We focus specifically on aged care advice and modelling, and we’re accredited through Aged Care Steps.
You’ll know the cost upfront, with fixed-fee packages based on complexity – not product sales or commissions.
Most families don’t live in the same city as their parent’s care facility, or even the same city as their siblings. We deliver advice by online meeting or phone so you can get help wherever you are in Australia.
We aim to deliver your advice promptly once we have the required information, and we stand behind the value of our service.
