From our first meeting, at a time when we were looking towards a transition to retirement and were unsure what to do, you were able to provide us with lots of information and financial advice, in what to do, moving forward into the future.

This is something we hadn’t received from our previous financial adviser and your approach and attention to detail was absolutely fantastic.

Thanks to you and CommonCents Wealth for allowing us to have financial peace of mind and the knowledge that our investments can grow into the future.

Once again , we would personally like to thank you, Nick. You are very good at what you do.

I started working with Richard only about a year ago but even in such a short period of time he has made a massive difference in my life.

Before meeting Richard I was really stressed about some very important financial decisions I was confronting. This was having a real impact on my health which has not been good for some years now, and was also having an impact on my relationships with my family.

Richard approached these issues with empathy and understanding. I really felt from the start that Richard had listened closely to my needs, and he built a plan to achieve these. We met about 5 times in the first few months with Richard taking time to explain not only “what” we were going to do but also “why”. For me understanding the “why” was the most important part? As a result I feel so much more comfortable with my finances and I also feel very relaxed about the important decisions I have made along the way.

I would recommend Richard to anyone who has life changing financial decisions to make.

Your friendly manner, professional conversation and sense of humour made you very easy to talk to and provided us with a lot of really solid, useful information. We will definitely recommend you to our friends and family!
