Best Financial Planning Services in Western Australia Perth
ActOn Wealth
Featured review: As a young couple, we were unsure what to do with our savings and were concerned about being able to afford having children and owning a property. Blyth and the team created a 10 year financial plan for us including childcare and maternity leave and future mortgage repayments and gave us options on how to invest our savings to support the life we want to have. We are now closing the deal for our first investment property and we feel like the decision we've made had the best and most complete research backing it up. We've been guided in every step of the process and have had all of the question answered (in multiple occasions). We are very happy with the relationship we have built with the team and hope it will keep growing with time.

advice that fits our circumstances and some of the specialised financial structures that we have. Blyth and the team tick all of these boxes - in addition, they work behind the scenes to make sure all of the administration is managed - it just happens in the background which is fantastic, but with full transparency so we can see everything that is happening with our investments. Blyth's availability is great, and he takes time to explain everything so we can have full confidence in the steps we are taking.

Invest Blue
It is discouraging to read of so many good reviews on this site but then have to accept the terrible service we have had from Invest Blue at… Read more
Cooranbong. It all started when I questioned why the monthly advisor fee had to go up 16% when the inflation rate was less than 3% at the time. Newly retired, I can't watch that sort of money leaving my account every month when all we get is an annual 'catch-up' and no communication during the year - not even answers to emails. We decided to stop using the particular advisor (and thus leave Invest Blue) and withdraw our investments from MyNorth. Since then it has been a painful process of having to remind the advisor up to 3 times to answer my emails which have contained questions and sometimes instructions. Excuses have been 'holiday breaks' or 'illness' which are fine but most professionals would set up an autoreply. Answers sometimes come at last and are short and abrupt. The latest email request has gone three weeks with several reminders from me. This time there have been no responses and not even any lame excuses. From the reviews I am sure Invest Blue is generally a good company, but PLEASE don't put yourself through the pain of going to their Cooranbong office.

resigned. The service declined further and it took weeks to hear back when I asked any questions or asked for advice. It took over 6 months to set up insurance and after a year and receiving our Statement of Advice, there had been no action. They were very unprofessional when setting up SMSF and held up the whole process. I am sad to say I would definately not recommend them. For us it was a massive loss of money.

income: (I wasn't surprised to see another REVIEW on here stating the same issue with mandate fees, now it's been removed)!
FACTS:
1. 07.06.24 3.20pm My email clearly stated I’m sure you respect that, with contradicting terms please accept the $15,000 on the basis both parties are happy with the final offer. 2. 07.06.24 4.40pm [Name Removed] called after receiving my email and confirmed Derek my 2IC and myself on this call that the $15,000 was based on the deal settling. (3rd attachment) 3. All our conversations were subject to the independent valuation coming in at $4m+, this was stated in every conversion we had regarding the valuation as your "offers" were based on a 4m+ valuation. (Hence [Name Removed] requested and accepted the valuation for the commercial building) 4. I never received any/final loan offers from Maxiron "The lender" to sign, besides an email on the 18.06.24 at 9.47am with [Name Removed] advising the establishment fee was reduced from 2.8% to 2.4%, 2.8% had never been tabled or advised. This tactic is purely to justify your fees. 5. 19.06.24 9.56am, [Name Removed] texted myself “Maxiron has advised the loan approval has an expiry at 5pm today. Need to know if this is an option for you. (Formal offers have a legal time frame)!
[Name Removed] and [Name Removed] accepted the $15,000 based on both parties being happy with the terms as per my email on 07.06.24 3.20pm, [Name Removed] also called immediately after and confirmed it was based on the deal settling, my 2IC of my Company Derek, was in this phone call.
Anyone who wants proof of what is stated above to prove the facts, please feel free to email me on darren@no1propertyguide.com.au and I will send through all documents to allow yourself to make an informed decision along with the screen shot of the 1 star review that has been removed.
5x Reviews on Product Review: (Now 4 reviews) 1x Review states the same issue of not repyaing fees as agreed!. (Looks like you have paid the client hence he has removed his 1 star review based on the same situation) 1x Review from [Name Removed], [Name Removed] is [Name Removed] partner.

dividends from my Vanguard investments in VVLU and VMIN. I invested in Vanguard ETFs VVLU and VMIN and was expecting dividend payments dated 16 July 2026. When I checked my Computershare account, I discovered that my bank details needed to be set up. I updated my bank account details on 17 July 2026, but after three weeks I am still waiting for the dividend payment. I contacted Computershare and was told that I needed to wait longer, but I was not given a clear explanation or a definite payment date. Overall, this has been a very disappointing experience with two companies that should be providing investors with a reliable and transparent dividend payment service.
Fantastic to deal with and prompt with payment. Very friendly people over the phone. I highly recommend them.

When I spoke with my brother , he was horrified and advised me at the closed the account immediately. Easier said than done. it took over three months before I could get my money out of this pathetic mob. I opened an account with Australian Super...who made more money in 8 months than the Ellerfield investment group in two and half years .....OH here is another fact about their gross incompetence...they emailed me someone else's portfolio...i admit I was envious!!!. I did advise them of this blunder. Have not heard from them since.

Hillross
Disgusting behaviour – After many years of valued advice to our parents the time sadly came that mental capacity reduced to the point that financial affairs had to be… Read more
passed on - as had been prepared for some ten years previously. For the past two years the children have been dealing with all emails, taxes, banking etc. The annual meeting with the saleswoman (name initials removed) was organised and especially in light of current market volatility (it being wuhan flu season) we had decided to look into the financial products a little more closely.
The litany of disgusting behaviour by hill ross is almost too numerous to cover adequately but I will try.
For starters there was no financial briefing, nor advice provided. There were lengthy discussions about various mental health and senior living options available. I am very firmly of the opinion that this meeting was primarily an information gathering activity on our finances and the mental health of their clients. There were no financial options available - simply very subtle but extremely firm 'suggestions' that we had to sign then and there as 'this is what your parents set up thirty years ago'. Why octogenarians with mental health issues fully and at length discussed in a near 4 hour meeting would 'have' to have all their available money in high growth funds with current extreme market volatility seemed very strange.
When we put forward cash as an alternative option we were told 'that's just gambling with your parent's money - you can't do that!'. Excuse me? Since when has cash been gambling??? I have never come across an australian financial advisor who has no faith in the $aud!
No signature was provided and further discussions were to be had with all siblings and for good measure I also contacted my accountant and provided relevant paperwork with a request he have a look as well as I had only ever seen financial products from this company so had no benchmark. He made a couple of comments, stressed he was not a financial advisor but would ask people he trusted what they thought and get back to me.
A few things struck me.
Firstly the 'advertised' fees totalled some $30k but there was no mention of any trails buried in the various products in the funds themselves. Also, this $30k spent buying the best advice possible (frequently stressed) in 'high growth' funds had managed -3% over the 2019/20 financial year. Very volatile year, sure, but the asx200 with no fees, managed -6%. Take out the hill ross fees (and the trails we don't know about) and I'd guess the asx200 beat the 'high growth' hill ross funds. As another family member said 'we are paying them $30kpa to gamble with our family money - why can't we gamble with it in cash for free, especially when they have done such a dismal job'. Fair point. My accountant could not believe that 80yo's would be 'forced' (with other options simply not provided) into high growth funds at all, let alone when the market is likely to suffer marked changes. Further, our accountant made the point that the products we were expected to 'sign up for' appeared to be in house amp financial products. After looking at the one document we did have to sign at the start of our meeting, we had to acknowledge we had already obtained independent legal and accounting advice - which was clearly impossible when we had only just been presented the document!
In short, and after lengthy discussions we made the decision to move the funds to cash. This notification was given in writing on a tuesday evening.
This is when our little hill ross saleswoman (name initials removed) really got her skates on to earn her money. Quite an impressive and illuminating performance it was as well.
Wednesday morning she contacted our parents solicitors and ascertained for herself that there was an 'out' clause in a recently updated poa we had been using for the previous couple of years. As we found out later, she informed our parents solicitor that under no circumstances were we to be notified of a meeting she had organised at our parents home the following day (thursday).
Because of concerns for general welfare as we had not been able to contact or locate my mother, I dropped in on the thursday to make sure she was ok. I found no-one home, but our lovely little saleswoman waiting in her car outside the house. It was 2:45pm and she told me she had been waiting since 1pm. We discussed the concerns I had for my mother's well being and it disturbed me she had missed an appointment as well. At this stage I had no reason to doubt the intentions of the matronly nice lady from hill ross - we had informed her in writing that we wished to move all the non pension products to cash so what was the concern? We had further discussions about our concerns for mental health and I spent about half an hour trying to locate the missing mother.
Shortly after this my mother appeared, had absolutely no idea there was any meeting organised but after a brief discussion I left. When I called my wife on the way home, she was suspicious but I was too trusting and left my mother alone - the fact there were written instructions attesting to our wishes seemed good enough to me and evening carers that prepare food and provide company for her would be arriving in an hour. Why should I be suspicious?
Despite the briefing on finances the previous week taking almost 4 hours, we later found out the meeting with my mother apparently took 20 minutes which included the hill ross saleswoman (m.A) helping herself to our mothers personal files and apparently also using our mothers pc!
I phoned the lovely hill ross saleswoman (name initials removed)the following morning (friday) to confirm the written instructions from tuesday had been complied with and to ask how my mother was as she had been missing the entire morning and was clearly a little 'vague' when I left her. To my horror I was told that mum was mentally 100%, understood everything perfectly and had elected to follow the advice of hill ross and at 82 years old stay in amp only, dismally performing, risky and extremely expensive high growth funds.
Shortly after this, my accountant called me after to speaking to advisors he had contacted and said that in short, the whole hill ross 'advice' summary 'simply stinks'. I then informed him of what had transpired that day and he was absolutely appalled.
Like many, I have been ripped off in my life, and I would consider myself an experienced/sophisticated investor. I have never seen anything like this performance by hill ross. My strong advice is no one should have any money 'invested' with them at all, but if you are over 65yo run away as fast as you can and be prepared for it to be made difficult.
If anyone has any family members who have money 'invested' with hill ross, please show them this story and very seriously look at extracting the funds as soon as possible.
This is straight jordan belfort 'wolf of wall st' stuff and especially after the banking rc I cannot believe any firm thinks this type of behaviour is acceptable.
