What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
I needed advice about funding long term residential care fees for my husband.
How has Davy Hudson helped you?
Davy gave sound advice with clear explanations. He is both professional and friendly. Due to various changes in our circumstances and needs the whole process was lengthy but Davy guided me through the whole process with patience and understanding. At no time did I feel rushed into making any decisions and he encouraged me to involve other family members in our discussions. I received balanced and easy to follow advice with clear options.
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
Yes. My husband now has an Immediate Needs Annuity which funds his care fees and I can now plan my future finances .
What could they have done better?
Nothing significant as it was a successful outcome. Ideally a face to face meeting would have been good but we were governed by pandemic/lockdown restrictions so our conversations were successfully conducted by email, telephone and zoom.
Davy:
Thank you very much for comments Delia. The process did indeed take a long time for a variety of reasons but we worked together to get the very best outcome in the end! I would be delighted should you decide to refer me to your friends and family in the future and look forward to our next review meeting to ensure the plan remains on track to deliver your financial goals.Review
