Brooke explains the difference between a Power of Attorney and an Enduring Guardian.

A Power of Attorney deals with financial and legal matters, while an Enduring Guardian can make health and lifestyle decisions if you are unable to make them yourself.

Going guarantor for your children can feel like a straightforward way to help them into the property market. But the decision can have implications well beyond their home loan.

Before agreeing to go guarantor, it is important to speak with a solicitor who understands both property & conveyancing law and wills & estates law, so you can understand what the decision could mean for your own property, finances and estate planning.

If your bid is successful at auction, you’re bound by the contract without a cooling-off period. That’s why it’s so important to have the contract thoroughly reviewed by your solicitor before you bid, so you understand exactly what you’re agreeing to.

A conversation I had this week stayed with me.

A client said, “I just wish we had sorted this out earlier.”

It’s something we hear more often than people might expect.

Not because anyone has done the wrong thing..
but because life gets busy, and these conversations get pushed aside.

Until something happens.

And by then, the options can be more limited, more stressful, and more costly.

It’s a reminder of how important it is to get advice early..
not when something has already gone wrong.

That’s a big part of what we try to do every day.
