There is no fee for the initial meeting. The fee to produce a ‘Statement of Advice’ ranges from $300 for simple advice to $5,000 for complex advice, for example establishing a Self Managed Super Fund to purchase property under a Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangement, although the average fee tends to be around $3,000.  This fee can, in most cases, be paid from your superannuation balance so you can plan your future now without having to affect your personal cash flow.

Ongoing advice fees are paid for regular reviews, reports, newsletters, portfolio re-balancing and so on.  The ongoing advice fee depends upon the number of hours spent to manage portfolios, some clients will have more complex needs. This flat annual fee will be determined according to the anticipated hours to manage the portfolio.
