My partner and I had a fantastic experience with Direct Wealth as first-home buyers. Victor Larder, our mortgage broker, made the process smooth and stress-free by staying on top of everything and keeping us informed at every step. His professionalism and attention to detail gave us confidence and peace of mind.

We were also impressed by Stef Wagner, the loan officer assisting Victor, who was efficient, responsive, and always ready to help. Thanks to their expertise and dedication, we secured the perfect loan for our first home. I highly recommend Direct Wealth to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive team!
google
Lyle was incredibly approachable & provided me with amazing advice, support, guidance & knowledge. I had anxiety around access support around my finances, but Lyle made me feel at ease & as though nothing was too much trouble to ask. Highly recommend! 😊

We engaged Erin Truscott to do a retirement plan for us and we found her very professional to deal with. From the start we felt we could put our trust in her and she has put some amazing strategies in place.
google
My journey and experience with Direct Wealth so far has been nothing but positive. Erinn and the team have been friendly, professional, highly informative and quick to respond to any concerns. I’d been toying with the idea about engaging with a financial advisor for some time but I knew that following the initial meeting that it was definitely something that I wanted to pursue.

We’ve been working with Kirsty at Direct Wealth for close to 3 years now. We couldn’t be happier, her advice is clear, tailored and has helped us feel confident about our future. We consider her a friend, she always makes time for chats about life and our fury friends along side business. Highly recommend Kirsty and the team at Direct Wealth.
google
Great friendly service and financial support from Erin at Direct Wealth for my transition into retirement.
google
Up until meeting Erin, I wasn’t at all confident with the advice given to me by other advisors. The Financial modelling particularly gave me piece of mind that I will be ok far into the future. Erin also had great understanding and empathy for my past experiences. As a woman, for me, this was a critical component for trusting her advice. I simply can’t recommend her highly enough. She is also just a lovely human being 🙂

I recently had an initial meeting with Sam Dwight at Direct Wealth, and I couldn’t be more pleased. I’ve always approached financial planning with some caution, but Sam’s approach immediately eased my concerns. He took the time to genuinely understand my personal circumstances, financial goals, and concerns without rushing into advice. Sam was incredibly friendly, courteous, and professional, making me feel comfortable and heard. His transparency and honesty came through at every step, and I left feeling confident about the next steps. I highly recommend Direct Wealth and in particular Sam to anyone seeking thoughtful, trustworthy financial guidance.
google
Sam & the Redcliffe team are amazing, they have managed my finances so well I can retire 2yrs earlier than expected.
Cannot recommend them highly enough.
google
Direct Wealth have always had a fantastic, client focused, efficient relationship with their clients, and we are very happy with the way that they interact and work with us to ensure a safe, secure, profitable outcome for us in our retirement.
Their client service is a personal relationship which suits the way we prefer to operate, but it makes our financial planning very easy, yet driven by a professional commitment to best practice in their field.
We are very happy to be clients of Direct Wealth.

Since changing over from another Financial Advisor to Direct Wealth two years ago I find them to be a very professional and knowledgeable business. I recently had my yearly review with Ben, and I was very impressed with the way my finances are being looked after. I look forward to my next review. I would certainly recommend Direct Wealth to any interested prospective client.
google
Initial chat with Ben. Found him very patient, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. Ben also came across as proactive – when presented non-financial industry information relating to an industry specific risk in a space that was removed from the finance industry, and that he wasn’t previously aware of – Ben indicated that he would go away and investigate that further risk so he could be informed for his other clients. Ben followed through on call times, and emails when he said he would send them. Cannot comment on the service beyond that. Would recommend as someone who was approachable and easy to talk to.
google
I had the pleasure of working with Ben for my financial planning needs, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. From the outset, Ben demonstrated a deep understanding of financial strategies and an impressive ability to tailor his advice to my personal situation. His approach is thorough, clear, and remarkably effective.

Ben took the time to explain complex concepts in a way that was easy to understand and always made sure I was comfortable with each decision. His attention to detail and proactive communication helped me feel confident about my financial future.
google
I highly recommend Ben Marlow at Direct Wealth. Ben consistently provides outstanding financial advice. His guidance is always timely and informed. He’s been an invaluable partner in navigating our financial journey, offering tailored advice that perfectly suits our current situation. Thanks Ben!
google
Ben Marlow from Direct Wealth has been a sound financial advisor for me and my wife for multiple years. Ben’s positive attitude, willingness to adapt and understanding of the financial system have helped us greatly. I highly recommend using Ben and his team.
google
We have been under the financial guidance of Kirsty for our future plans . At first it was such a daunting decision but Kirsty was happy to explain and answer all of our questions in a friendly and open manner. We are very happy to be with the team at Direct Wealth.
google
My wife and I met with Kirsty and she made us feel at ease with explaining how she would invest our money for retirement and resolved concerns we had. Kirsty was very thorough and made us feel comfortable with our decision to utilise Direct Wealth.
google
Just started with this company and my adviser is Erin. So far I like everything about them and her- very friendly, relatable, down-to-earth and approachable. I am glad I found them and looking forward to see what comes next!
google
More than happy with Ben’s service. Worked with him for 3 years planning retirement, and I’m now making the transition next month! Very excited and looking forward to working with Direct Wealth moving forward!
google
Can’t speak highly enough of the advise that Joel & the team at Direct Wealth have supplied. Joel is always available when we need to contact him & answers our questions with ease. We have delt in the past with other super companies & have found Direct Wealth the easiest & most professional to deal with, we have no hesitation in recommending Joel & Direct Wealth to our friends & family.
google
Ben Marlow was initially thrust upon us after the amalgamation of our accountants with Direct Wealth and this is without doubt one of the best financial outcomes to have happened to my wife and I. Initially I was sceptical of his enthusiasm and apparent desire to nurture and improve our financial stability moving towards retirement. Ben has tailored his communication style to not only be relatable to us but also educational and has further embedded our trust in his advice with proven outcomes. I would absolutely recommend Ben to any prospective client.
google
I was impressed with the level of service and knowledge Lyle and the office team offered me for the obtaining of my first home loan!
Overall, the financial advice I received was invaluable in securing my first home loan! I highly recommend calling Sally to arrange an appointment with Lyle for a master in professional advice for any significant financial commitment or goal!
google
I’d give more stars if I could…the best service ever! Caillin and Ben H. went above and beyond for me…I couldn’t be happier! Thanks so much for all your hard work! I would highly recommend Direct Wealth…especially Ben and Caillin!

Always very helpful and prompt in taking care of our needs. Provide good information on handling of our accounts.

I recently had a follow up meeting with Luke Youd who has now joined the Direct Wealth team. As usual the meeting with Luke was very informative and he is always generous with his time to explain things to me – regardless of how obscure my questions might be.

I have great confidence in my dealings with Luke going forward and also with the friendly Direct Wealth staff in general, who are helpful and proactive with their communications with their clients.

We have been working with Brett for some years. We first met Brett when we were in need of assistance with super and he helped us navigate our way to the happy future we have today. We have since undertaken full financial planning with Direct Wealth and we are immensely pleased with the guidance and advice. I could not recommend a better financial planner to assist manage your future.

My wife Jackie & I have recently completed an annual review with Kirsty. Whilst we have been looked after by Kirsty for a few years now we continue to be impressed with her knowledge, professionalism & lovely outgoing manner. We would also like to add that the support & office staff at Direct Wealth appear to be of the same high standard.

Sam and Ella were excellent in providing general information for my parents who are looking to retire. Whilst we aren’t at the stage to utilise the service we are very impressed by their professionalism and genuine care.

My wife and I have had Lyle as a financial advisor for a number of years and watched our portfolio grow. Lyle consistently provides us with excellent advice and his communication is outstanding. He provides us with constant support with the correct guidance extremely quickly when needed.
I have recommended many personnel to Lyle. The feedback I obtain from these personnel is that Lyle is excellent.

We had a great experience with our last visit, now that hubby is 67yrs of age, they guided us in a few ways to repay our 2 loans. We couldn’t be happier and alot less stress considering, Warren couldn’t receive his full pension because I’m still working. We highly recommend Direct Wealth to anyone who wants financial advice of any kind. Very professional and understanding. Many thanks to Peter for many years and to Jason, who is now looking after us.
Cheers, Ronona and Warren Cuffe

Over the course of about 3 years we have become so comfortable with Luke we feel like we are talking to family when we meet. Luke has been honest and straight forward from when we first met and has certainly led us in the right direction in preparation for retirement. Luke always responds quickly when we have a query and is very patient with our quirky ideas. We are very grateful for our relationship with Luke.

I had an excellent experience with Direct Wealth and Kirsty in setting up my personal insurances. The team are incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to understand my unique needs and circumstances. She explained all my options clearly and helped me choose the best coverage to protect myself and my family. The process was seamless, and I felt confident and well-informed every step of the way.

The Direct Wealth team were a pleasure to deal with. Kirsty was efficient and extremely flexible with fitting in around my work schedule.

Kirsty broke everything down and made the entire process seamless. Kirsty communicated everything clearly and walked me through step by step which I am so thankful for.

Frequently Asked Questions


1. What does a financial advisor do, and how can they help me?

A financial advisor is like your personal guide to managing your money and planning for the future. They can assist with budgeting, investment strategies, and retirement planning. By working with a financial advisor in Brisbane, you’ll have someone to help you make confident decisions and stay on track to achieve your financial goals.


2. How do I choose the best financial advisor in Brisbane?

Finding the best financial advisor Brisbane offers starts with knowing your needs. Look for someone with the right qualifications, such as a Certified Financial Planner (CFP), and check if they specialise in areas like financial planning or wealth management. Reading reviews and meeting a few advisors can help you feel confident about your choice.


3. What’s the difference between a financial advisor and a financial planner?

A financial advisor is a broader term that includes services like investment management, insurance, or retirement advice. A financial planner, on the other hand, typically focuses on creating detailed strategies for your overall financial goals. Whether you’re looking for a financial planner Brisbane residents trust or broader advice, it’s important to clarify what services they provide.


4. What types of financial advice do financial advisors in Brisbane provide?

Brisbane financial advisors can assist with superannuation advice, investment strategies, debt management, and planning for major life events like buying a house or retiring. Their financial advice is tailored to your unique situation, ensuring you get a plan that suits your needs.


5. How much does it cost to hire a financial planner in Brisbane?

Costs vary depending on the financial planner and the services you need. Some financial planners Brisbane offers charge a flat fee, others have hourly rates, or charge a percentage of your investments. Always ask upfront about fees so you know exactly what to expect.


6. What qualifications should I look for in a financial adviser near me?

When searching for a financial advisor near me, look for someone licensed and qualified, such as a member of the Financial Planning Association of Australia (FPA). These qualifications ensure they meet industry standards and provide reliable financial advice.


7. How can a financial advisor help with retirement planning?

A financial advisor can create a tailored retirement plan by reviewing your superannuation, setting up investments, and identifying tax benefits. A local Brisbane financial advisor can provide advice specific to your situation, making retirement planning more straightforward and effective.


8. Is it worth working with a financial advisor in Brisbane?

Absolutely. A financial advisor can provide tailored advice based on your specific financial goals and needs. Many Brisbane locals choose advisors who offer a personalised approach, helping them feel confident they’re on the right track.


9. What should I expect during my first meeting with a financial planner?

Your first meeting with a financial planner is about getting to know you. They’ll ask about your income, savings, debts, and goals to understand your financial situation. It’s also your chance to ask questions and see if their approach aligns with your needs. A good Brisbane financial planner will guide you every step of the way.


10. Where can I find reliable financial advisors near me?

You can start by asking for recommendations from friends or family, or searching online for financial advisors or planners near me. Look for Brisbane financial advisors with strong reviews, relevant qualifications, and experience in financial planning or investment advice tailored to your goals.
