I have been with Approved Financial Planners for a long time now. Great Advice and service. Tracey has a wealth of knowledge and has helped me achieve my financial goals with ease.
On March 6 both Cindy and I had our annual financial review with Approved Financial Planners in Floreat WA. Our financial planner is Tracey Corbett and this is our second year where Tracey has been our planner and her advice has been very informative and is explained in such a way that both Cindy and I can understand. All sections of both our financial plans were presented and explained in lay-man terms.
We are both looking forward to seeing Tracey next year for our next review.
I am extremely satisfied with the services provided by Tracey at Approved Financial Planners. I appreciate the attention to details, the follow up, the prompt responses, the patience in assessing and explaining options. I also appreciate the attention to customer also provided by the rest of the team. Highly recommended !
Just completed another annual review with Dan at Approved Financial Planners. It is so nice to see such positive and pleasing results as presented by Dan and to know our financial planning is in good hands. Ongoing planning and advice from Dan is always welcoming and if Dan is not available, we have found Christa the office manager always willing and able to assist and deal with any queries we may have. So, needing a financial adviser then contact Dan and his team at Approved Financial Planners
Thanks Dan and Staff for the annual review. The forecasting for retirement and the software used was very illustrative and useful to understand. Growth in funds and super has been robust in the last 12 months and advice for the next 12 months taken on board. Look fwd to making a few tweaks to the portfolio once the report is completed.
I've been working with Dan for over 10 years & I have been consistently impressed with his level of professionalism and expertise.
He offers a comprehensive yearly review of my investment portfolio, pension balance, cash flow & estate planning. Dan stays up to date with current trends in finance which gives me confidence that my financial plan is aligned with current best practices.
I appreciate his strategies to maximise my superannuation, ensuring I'm on track for the future.
I also want to mention the support from his team, they are friendly & professional.
I highly recommend Dan.
Hi People - just a quick note letting everyone know that AFP have been nothing but totally professional with my business over the past few years. Tracey has been my latest advisor and I have nothing but praise for her friendliness, approachability and advice covering everything from the value of second-hand cars to having my will updated.
Tracey is our new planner. We find her to be friendly and very down to earth. We appreciate having things explained in terms we understand. We hope to have a long relationship with her in her role as our financial planner.
Attended a meeting with Tracey Corbett to review financial situation. Meeting went well, Tracey is always very helpful and would recommend Approved Financial Planners to anyone seeking financial advice.
We are happy with their service and their advice. We followed their recommendations and we now have achieved our goals in the short term. We recommend them.
Daniel has been providing me with Financial Planning for several years now. My financial literacy is pretty poor so it's great to work with someone who explains things in a manner that is easy to understand. I'm a visual person, so I like that he is able to plug figures into charts and quickly show me the outcomes of various scenarios. Daniel is gives great advice, is realistic about my goals and is also an easy person to talk to.
We have been clients of Approved Financial Planners since 2018, and we couldn’t be happier with the service they’ve provided over the years. Daniel Stevens has been an exceptional adviser, making us feel like so much more than just clients. His advice has been instrumental in our financial growth, helping us stay focused on achievable goals while always keeping our best interests at heart.
One of the highlights of working with Daniel is the annual catch-up—he takes the time to truly understand where we are in our financial journey and provides tailored advice to keep us on track. It’s clear how much he genuinely cares about helping us reach our goals.
Having worked with Approved Financial Planners for years, we can confidently say their expertise and dedication have made a significant difference in our lives. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for professional, personalised financial advice.
I have recently had my Annual Review with Tracey.
Tracey has been very helpful and supportive with my long and short term financial goals.
She is very professional and friendly and comes with a lot of super helpful knowledge and information.
I'm very excited to see what can be achieved long term with Tracey and team!
Thanks again to the team at Approved Financial Planners.
A relaxing experience for such a burdening issue. Tracey and her team have welcomed us to her flock with an attitude rarely seen these days, 'anything is possible'. Thankyou for making our finances seem 'too easy'. We will recommend this Company to all that need financial help.
We have been with Approved Financial Planners for a few years now, after being referred by a family member.
We have found the staff to be attentive, knowledgeable and approachable at all times.
We have been consulting with Dan and the team at Approved for several years now and have been very pleased with the level of service. They have gone above and beyond to make sure we receive up to date advice and plan financially what is best for our current situation. The team's industry knowledge and attention to detail allows for strong communication and trust in the process. Approved's online portal also provides an easy to use platform for predictions, goals and portfolio snapshots. Highly recommend Approved Financial Planners for all your financial planning needs.
Daniel has assisted us in our financial strategies for over a decade. We are business owners and our circumstances have changed often over the years. With Dan's deep knowledge, professionalism and genuine care of our well-being, his advice has been invaluable. Our annual reviews have become more like catching up with a genuine trusted friend.
Dan and the team at Approved FP have looked after me really well for the past several years and I highly recommend them. They provide sound financial advice and are well organised with all the documents which gives me great comfort knowing that my future is in good hands!
