You can scrimp and save and squirrel away all the money you can but, when it comes to retirement, everyone has the same thought: do I have enough? The closer you get to retirement, the more important this question is.
We’ve found that people in Chelmsford typically:
Knowing how much money you need for retirement is rarely a simple task. You’ve got your savings, your assets and your pension. Depending on your career and circumstances, you may have several pension plans under your name. When it comes time to put your money to good use, having someone to guide you can make a big difference.
We can connect you with a financial advisor in Chelmsford and give you a free, no-obligation consultation. You can speak freely with your advisor to discuss what you want to get out of retirement. You’re always in control - you choose whether to take their advice or not and if you want to speak with a different advisor, we’ll find one for you for free.
Did you know that your biggest asset in retirement might just be your home? Many people use retirement as an opportunity to downsize and find a new spot they can enjoy retirement in. But you don’t always have to sell your existing property to get the home of your dreams - releasing equity from your home could help pay for the home improvements you’ve always wanted.
On average, properties in Chelmsford are valued at £470,750. Releasing some of that equity as a lump sum could bolster your pension fund as you budget for retirement. Many people still have to consider regular debts like credit card bills or mortgage payments into their retirement finances - a financial advisor could help you navigate these dangerous waters to ensure your pension isn’t whittled away.

Do I need a financial advisor?
A financial advisor can offer valuable insight and expertise on a wide range of common financial concerns.
Key situations in which a financial advisor is likely to be valuable include:
Exploring your options during key life events such as retirement
Comparing quotes for pensions or insurance products
Investing large sums of money
Inheritance tax planning and intelligent saving
How much does an advisor cost?
The cost of using a financial advisor can vary depending on your needs. You may be able to resolve your issues in a single consultation, or you may benefit from a more long-term collaboration.
At Local Financial Advice we're dedicated to providing a transparent and cost-effective experience for all customers:
Free, no-obligation initial consultation - Discuss your issues in detail and make a decision about whether you’d like to proceed before making any commitment.
Total transparency - Any costs associated with purchasing any product or service from your financial advisor will be broken down in detail.
How can I speak with my advisor?
Many of the advisors we work with are flexible with how they can meet with you.
Your advisor will often try to first get in touch with you by phone to talk about the kind of advice you need.
If you decide to continue with their advice, advisors can meet you face-to-face. You can discuss any safety precautions the advisor should take if you arrange for them to visit your home.
Throughout your time speaking with your advisor, you may receive emails from them. These will often simply be to confirm your information or the details of future meetings you book with them.
Is the advice one-off or ongoing?
The type of advice you need depends on your circumstances.
We encourage everyone we connect with an advisor to discuss their financial needs in detail so they can receive the right amount of advice.
You may only need one-off advice if you need help choosing a long-term product to support your retirement, such as an annuity.
If you need flexibility with your money, you may prefer ongoing advice from your advisor with you speaking every six months or year to see how your money is performing.
Whatever help you need, your advisor will clearly lay out the costs involved. These can be one-off costs or recurring, such as a fund management fee.
