    I asked this question in another forum, and the response was really interesting, so I thought that I would check out what you guys on here think.

    Obviously I'm biased, but I'm really curious to know who out there have used a financial planner and actually found them to be of some use to them?

    We've all read some pretty horrid things (most of them being true), but being a financial planner that loves property, I'm just wondering what the general attitude is these days.

    I still keep hearing that people go to financial planners and get the same message – sell your IPs and buy this managed fund.

    Most planners I talk to still don't want to know about property, but bit by bit some of them are wising up to the fact that they're wrong!

    Hi FinSpec,

    You certainly are not alone in you tendancies towards property investment. We manage properties for a wide range of investors, many of whom have bought there IPs on the back of financial advice. We find that a lot of our owners are more comfortable with 'bricks and mortar', especially after recently seeing a stock market meltdown.
