Our Clients
Michael and Kirsty were referred to us by a friend. They were concerned that their superannuation funds were not being maximised, and that they were paying excessive management and financial advice fees. They heard a lot about self-managed super funds and wanted to find out whether it would be a viable option for them.
They had 4 retail super funds with a combined value of $1,303,101.
The problems before we got involved
- Whilst Keith and Bernadette owned a modest investment portfolio, their ineffective tax structure had limited their capacity to build additional family wealth
- They were making significant principal repayments on their investment loans, which was effectively increasing their tax liability and providing zero return on principal
- We created a tax-free funding facility to provide additional cash flow to increase investment potential and to provide emergency funds that can be used to continue to fund their wealth creation and lifestyle regardless of what life throws at them
- We gave Keith and Bernadette the confidence they required to safely purchase and fund additional investment properties over time
