What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

Sale of house to invest

How has Daren Wallbank helped you?

Invested wit a good return

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes

Daren:

Thank you for your review. It’s great for me to hear that you felt supported in making the next step with your finances after selling your house as I know that making these decisions around investing a lump sum can feel daunting. I am glad that I was able to make you feel reassured. You mentioned achieving a good return, which is always encouraging. While investment outcomes can vary over time, having a clear strategy in place that is tailored to your goals and comfort with risk can make a real difference in building long-term financial confidence. Thanks again!

Thank you for your kind review and it has been a pleasure working with you over the years.
