“Thank you Ashley for your time and patience in explaining the financial side of the Aged Care system to mum and I. Your knowledge and understanding of the whole complex system, helped make quite an emotional time for mum and I so much easier. Thankyou once again for your patience.”

After reaching a crossroad in my financial life I felt the need to consult with a Financial Advisor, and not knowing which way to turn, Robert’s name was mentioned. Having already had some unfavourable experiences with other Advisors in Melbourne, I was initially hesitant to try “another one” when I found myself having to make a significant financial decision quickly. I contacted Robert for advice. As a novice (and still am) Robert’s ability to clearly explain what and how he would take me forward put me at ease and filled me with confidence. Since then, I have had nothing but good consultation from Robert and his wonderful and experienced team. Their approachability, friendliness and trustworthy professionalism is the best around.

After a lifestyle change of direction several years ago, we found our family looking around for financial advice on succession restructure of the family business and private investments. We interviewed several financial advisers and while they were informative, we were all greatly impressed by Robert’s enthusiasm and professionalism in striving for the right outcome for us. Robert’s professional approach, knowledge, down to earth language, and contacts form a solid base and is echoed by his friendly staff in the Horsham office and was a great comfort at this time for our family. We have no hesitation to recommend others to contact and talk to Robert as he and his staff are only a phone call away and are always courteous, helpful, friendly, and approachable. 

“Despite being first timers to a financial planning service, Rachael was able to patiently explain how different strategies worked and then tailor a plan specifically to suit our requirements. This was done in an informative and no pressure manner, with Rachael at all times answering our concerns and newbie questions with prompt, friendly and non-condescending knowledge. I feel very confident going forward, that with Rachael’s strategy our financial future is in a safe and prosperous state. Three cheers.”

“Everyone has a relationship with money. That is what underpins how easily we can talk about it, how happily we are to invest and our overall financial health. Olivia understands that. She is compassionate, thorough, patient and most of all a genuinely caring person. It is clear from the initial conversation that Olivia has a genuine interest in helping her clients to make the most of their financial situation. Olivia not only provided advice on superannuation, investments, insurances and property – but she also spent time to gather information to further explain her suggestions to us. I have already recommended Olivia to friends, family and clients of my own business – that is how much faith I have in her ability to support myself and my family into the future.”

“Approaching retirement age, I felt it was important to obtain professional advice regarding my financial situation, particularly in relation to income tax and the opportunities available to me through superannuation. I had used Ashley at Consortium Private Wealth previously and was very impressed by the advice he had provided during my mother’s transition to aged care. I met with Rob and Olivia who were great, taking the time to understand my personal situation and my financial objectives moving forward. They offered me excellent advice during our initial meeting and have followed through as promised with further advice on capital gains tax specific to my situation. Following these discussions, I feel confident in my financial security moving forward and will not hesitate to contact them for further advice in the future. A very professional business and experience – thank you and well done.
