Financial Advice to plan

for your future

“Thank you for all your support and helping me clarify financial decisions. It really helps when I’m talking things through with you and I can’t tell you how much I appreciate that”
— P. Russell, Napier, NZ

Think ahead. Protect your progress. Make better decisions.

It doesn’t matter what stage of life you are at. Whether you are wondering if your KiwiSaver is in the right fund for you, the impact of expensive renovations, buying a home or a rental property, or how much do you need to retire? Embarking on this journey may seem challenging, but taking the first step is often the most difficult part.

I'm Lisa Bentley, a registered financial adviser living in beautiful Hawke’s Bay, working with clients locally and all over New Zealand.

I have learned you cannot reach your goals just by saving money in the bank and paying off your mortgage, you need to include investments in your plan, and the earlier you start this the easier it is to achieve freedom & choice.
