From 1994 until now, Ray has been operating as a financial planner and having completed a Diploma of Financial Planning is now a certified financial planner and the Managing Director of his own Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL) number 280201.
His AFSL is neither owned by nor owes allegiance to any Life Office or Fund Manager. In short his concern is the client and achieving the best possible results he can on their behalf.
The property fund management business I have built has afforded hundreds of investors the chance to become an
“armchair property developer”.
