Change is coming for AdviceFirst.

It feels like yesterday that enable.me and AdviceFirst took the leap to join forces, with a shared goal of delivering better financial outcomes for Kiwis across New Zealand. Since then, we’ve grown into a stronger team - helping clients improve their financial fitness, protect their financial future, and build lasting wealth.

This year, we’re taking the next step in that journey as we come together as one. We look forward to sharing more with you soon. Stay tuned.

There’s never going to be a better time to make progress on your financial future than right now.

Property is often seen as the cornerstone of wealth building in New Zealand.

But is buying any property and holding it for as long as possible really the best approach?

enable.me Head Strategic Coach, Katie Wesney, shares her thoughts.

Holding onto a property can sometimes be motivated by an abject fear of failure rather than sound financial decision-making.

When is the best time to start saving for retirement?

The years move quickly, and retirement tends to appear sooner than expected. The best time to start planning was yesterday. The second-best time is today.

This time of year draws us closer to our loved ones - through Christmas planning, end-of-year celebrations, and those all-important negotiations with the kids over their wish lists. But amid the festive busyness, it’s easy to overlook the importance of open communication with your partner. In particular, long-held financial secrets can undermine years of trust in a matter of seconds.

Katie Wesney shares insights from real client experiences on the impact of hidden finances - and offers practical tips for fostering honest, open conversations about money.

Not all infidelity is romantic in nature. Money can also leave partners betrayed, writes Katie Wesney.

When we talk about financial freedom, we’re not talking about a pipe dream only reserved for the wealthy. Financial freedom means something different to everyone, whether it’s retiring early, crushing the mortgage, or better sleep with the right protection plan in place.

Financial freedom is achievable for anyone who has a clear vision for their financial future and a willingness to take action.

We help thousands of New Zealanders stay on track with quality advice throughout life.

We know that everyone wants the best for their families and themselves now and into the future. We want to prosper and protect everything that we value; to take care of ourselves, the people who are most close to us and our property. We want to be able to enjoy our working lives and enjoy a comfortable retirement where we are well positioned to spend important and happy times with those that we love.

With so much to achieve it’s rare we get to where we want to on our own. There is so much we need to know that’s outside of our own learning. That’s why calling on the experts at important stages of our life can make a truly vital difference between us achieving our lifetime goals or not. AdviceFirst is made up of experts and we are here to help you do just that.
