... After having our daughter my wife and I decided that, as neither of us are financially minded, it was time to engage with an expert who could help us with our long term financial goals. My experience with financial planners was not great so I was initially hesitant but after our initial discussion with Mike we realised that there is such a thing as a finance savvy person who knows how to speak plain English and doesn’t want to force you down their path of greatest commission! We thought we knew what was important to us but after our initial session Mike was able to change a lot of our thinking simply through his sound knowledge of the industry and introducing new concepts to support our goal of financial freedom. Since then it has been onwards and upwards with Mike and Jess managing us through some major property changes and ensuring all the details were covered. We have a fixed goal which doesn’t come at any cost to our standard of living, it’s more about being a bit wiser and following simple tried and tested plans. We also know that if anything were to happen to us, both ourselves and our daughter are now completely covered financially.Not being part of a large company and having been through the GFC and more recently the major industry regulatory upheavals, in itself shows that Mike and the team are here to stay and focused on their most important asset, us! We’ve recommend Delta Financial to several friends and have no hesitation recommending the team to anyone thinking of taking the next step to financial freedom. Scott and Lisaread more

We wanted to put a plan in place that would give us a structure for our future. Thanks to Mike, we have been able to do just that, as he has put in a plan to reach our goals while reducing the worry around our future. He has continued to lead us in the right direction, cutting through to what really matters and acting as our own financial fitness coach.read more
