How is New Era Financial Planning different to other financial advisors?Â

When it comes to financial advice, one size definitely doesn’t fit all. Many traditional financial advisors focus on high-net-worth clients, leaving everyday Australians without the guidance they need to build wealth and secure their future. At New Era Financial Planning, we’re changing that. Our approach is designed to be accessible, tailored, and forward-thinking—helping ambitious individuals and families take control of their finances, no matter where they’re starting from. So, what makes us different? Let’s dive in.
      1.    Accessibility for All Income Levels: Unlike traditional advisors who often cater to high-net-worth individuals, we are committed to providing high-quality, reliable financial advice to everyday Australians, regardless of income.
      2.    Membership-Based Model: We offer a subscription-based service, allowing our members to receive ongoing financial planning support without prohibitive upfront costs.
      3.    Comprehensive Financial Roadmaps: We create detailed financial roadmaps (we call it a Financial Blueprint), helping clients understand the implications of various financial decisions and guiding them toward their goals.
      4.    Tax Optimisation Strategies: We assist our members in maximising their tax entitlements while building investment portfolios, ensuring efficient tax management.
      5.    Income Management for Diverse Earners: Whether members are salaried professionals, self-employed, or juggling multiple gigs, we provide tailored strategies to optimise income & manage cashflow.
      6.    Automated Savings Structures: We help set up account structures that automate savings, simplifying money management and goal tracking.
      7.    Property Purchase Planning: One of our more popular services, we offer guidance on property purchases, including price & yield analysis, suburb selection, and identifying eligible grants and schemes. Â
      8.    Loan Planning and Brokerage Services: Our mortgaging broking partners assist with loan applications, determining borrowing capacities, required deposits, and selecting suitable banks. 
      9.    Investment Portfolio Development: We provide strategies for building investment portfolios, even starting with modest amounts, to help members grow their wealth over time. The benefit of investing early allows the magic of compound to do its thing!
      10.   Superannuation Management: Not secy but super important! We help our members optimise their superannuation to enhance retirement outcomes and achieve financial freedom.
