Why Retirement Planning Matters

Your retirement years should be a time to enjoy life, not stress about money. Without proper planning, your super balance and savings may not provide the regular income you need to maintain your desired living standards. We help you estimate how much income you'll need, explore investment options, and develop a strategy to make the most of your super fund, ensuring your finances are well managed.

Many people underestimate how long their retirement years will last. With increasing life expectancy, your savings may need to support you for 20 to 30 years or more. Planning for retirement ensures that your super balance, investments, and other income streams can sustain you comfortably.

Why choose Better Financial Tomorrow

Curious about why Better Financial Tomorrow should be your choice?

Maximising Superannuation

Superannuation funds are a key source of retirement income. We help you understand concessional contributions caps, voluntary contributions, and additional super contributions to grow your super balance before you retire. Our financial advisers ensure your super account is structured to provide the biggest boost to your savings while keeping your finances up to date with the latest regulations.

Managing Living Costs & Aged Care Planning

Retirement planning isn't just about savings—it’s about ensuring you can cover your living costs, healthcare, and potential aged care expenses. We provide financial advice on aged care funding, insurance options, and long-term financial security so you can enjoy peace of mind in your later years.

Understanding the Age Pension

Many retirees rely on a combination of super and age pension payments. We assess your eligibility for the government age pension, explain how your assets and relationship status affect your payments, and explore account-based pensions to create a steady income stream. Our goal is to ensure you receive the maximum amount you're entitled to while managing tax-free income options.

Accessing Your Superannuation

Deciding when and how to access your super is crucial. Whether you're considering a lump sum withdrawal, regular income payments, or a transition to retirement strategy, we provide professional advice to help you manage your funds effectively. We also guide you through your preservation age and transfer balance cap to ensure compliance with superannuation regulations.

Bonnie

Clyde is fantastic at what he does. He handled my late father’s investments for a long time and when my father passed unexpectedly, Clyde was the first person I asked what to do with my inheritance. In just a couple of months he has helped me get finance for my first home, and made sure I understood everything clearly. I wasn’t afraid to ask any questions, and always had fast responses from him.
Clyde is very honest, kind and understanding. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for any financial matters.

nathan galea

As someone who easily gets frustrated and confused with paper work code made the whole process much easier than previous experiences.Clyde is a wealth of knowledge and and legitimately wants to see you succeed and he knows how to get you there. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

GAYNA

Clyde has been so helpful, from the moment we first met him. My husband and I are so appreciative of Clyde's willingness to assist - he has seen us outside of office hours multiple times, to ensure we can get his expert input and support.

Having never bought a property before, we had no idea what was involved with the process, and Clyde has always made himself available to answer our questions.

I have recommended him to my friends, and will continue to do so!

Nicholas

I came to Clyde wanting to buy a property and he pointed me in the right direction. 6 months later and I have bought my first investment property, Couldn't be happier. Great service, great person and always wears his smile

EMMa

Clyde has been so helpful throughout my entire buying process! Throughout the past 3 months Clyde had communicated with me and made sure this process was as stress free as possible, he helped me get a home loan with the best borrowing capacity, affordability and interest rates. I am so thankful for his help and knowledge of the industry!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What do mortgage brokers actually do?

Mortgage brokers (like me) act on your behalf working with lenders to help you find a loan
that is well suited to your situation. This means I do all the legwork for you! We’re also legally
required to work in your best interests (whereas banks and lenders aren’t!). Get in touch and
we’d be happy to answer any questions.

In almost all scenarios you are not required to pay a fee for our services. Instead, we’re paid a
commission by the lender you choose. If you have any questions give us a call and we’d be
happy to help.

We have access to over 60 banks and lenders, giving you access to competitive rates, choice
and power when embarking on your mortgage process.

Whatever is preferred by you! We can do it over zoom, the phone, face to face, whatever
you’re most comfortable with.

As a broker, I have access to over 60 lenders so I can offer you choice and a well informed
recommendation. Unlike the banks, I’m also legally required to work in your best interests
and in almost all scenarios you are not required to pay a fee for our services. Instead, we’re
paid a commission by the lender you choose. Get in touch for more information about how
we can help you.

Get a broker on your side early to help navigate you through the process. We’ll start by
understanding your current situation and your future goals. We’ll then research and refine
your options. Once you’re ready we’ll lodge the application for you!

Each lender has slightly different criteria, so the amount you can borrow will differ. To kick
things off I’ll need you to provide some information about your current situation. Then it’s
over to me to do the research and compare your options from over 60 lenders. Get in touch
so I can help you understand how much you can borrow, or go to our calculators page to get
an estimate! https://betterfinancialtomorrow.com.au/how-much-can-i-borrow/

We sure do. Whether you are buying a car, need to fund a holiday, to buy some furniture, pay
for a uni course or even get married, we can help get you sorted.

Stamp duty is a state government tax on your property and how much you have to pay
depends on which state you live in and the price of your property. Use our stamp duty
calculator https://betterfinancialtomorrow.com.au/stamp-duty-calculator/ to get an
estimate and get in touch if you have any questions.

Typically lenders ask for 20% of the total house price before they’ll consider giving you a loan
but there are a number of ways around this, like government grants and guarantors, which
means you could buy with as little as a 5% deposit. Get in touch and we can work out what
your options are and a plan to get you on the property ladder.

Unfortunately, the answer to this one is ‘Depends’! It differs from lender to lender and can
vary quite a bit (depending on their criteria, income, the type of property etc), so it’s really
worth shopping around. How much you can borrow also depends on the size of your deposit
and can change if you have an existing equity in a property. Get in touch and we can start
working it out for you!
