Strategic Property Assessment
Unlock Your Property and Maximise Retirement.
Many New Zealanders have built significant wealth through property. As retirement approaches, the challenge often shifts from building wealth to understanding how and when to access it.
Our Property Decumulation Planning programme helps you understand:
when you may need to access equity
which properties are adding the most value
which properties may be costing you more than they’re contributing
how property fits alongside KiwiSaver, investments and retirement income
how to create a plan for accessing cash without compromising long-term goals

We use a structured six-factor assessment framework to evaluate each property in your portfolio and identify potential risks, opportunities and priorities.
We Assess:
Gross yield
Cash flow impact
Capital growth outlook
Maintenance and future costs
Geographic concentration
Banking and lending complexity
What You’ll Receive
A detailed review of your current property portfolio
Recommendations on which property to address first
Guidance on timing and retirement cash flow needs

What to Expect in
Your Consultation
We all start our financial journey at different stages. We have different tendencies, wealth levels, timeframes, and ambitions. No matter where you’re starting out and where you want to end up, enable.me can help.
Your initial consultation with an enable.me financial adviser is designed to get a better understanding of where you are now and what your financial goals are to see how we can support you on this journey. It’s split into four parts.
Part 1: Diagnose Your Situation
We’ll dive into your money mindset, habits, and financial position. We’ll assess what you own, owe, earn, and spend, plus review your mortgage repayment progress and any existing investments.
Part 2: Analyse the Opportunities
We’ll benchmark your current performance against your goals, highlight inefficiencies (like fritter spending), and show you where smarter strategies can speed up your progress and help identify areas for improvement.
Part 3: Strategic Recommendations
We’ll discuss a high-level game plan tailored to you, what to focus on, when to act, and how your decisions impact your long-term financial future. Depending on your situation, this may include a projected mortgage-free target date, savings goals, or investment strategies.
Part 4: Your 12-Month Plan
You’ll get a clear outline of what the first 12 months with enable.me could look like, from a quick tune-up to an intensive programme designed to unlock your financial potential.
What Our
Clients Say
Real stories from real people we’ve helped.
“Where do I start! We have just finished our first year with enable.me and can’t thank our Coach Kristin enough for all her mahi, sound advice and guidance. We definitely wouldn’t be where we are today financially if we had continued plodding along on our own. I can’t sing Kristin’s and enable.me’s praises enough. Our only regret is not jumping on board a lot earlier. All the knowledge we have gained is being passed down to our children, who are young adults, giving them the tools to be a lot more financially savvy as they begin their working lives.”
Kristin Sutherland’s Client
“Ashleigh is a delight and so understanding. She helped us adapt to our changing circumstances and put us at ease.”
Ashleigh Waterman’s Client
“Lisa has a pleasant, welcoming manner that put my husband and me at ease immediately. She asked us numerous questions, which gave her a good understanding of our present financial position and of our goals, so I felt her advice was very relevant. She is good with numbers, and her use of the software created a financial review and a graphical forecast with valuable information. We discussed a plan to reach our goals sooner, and this has brought my ideas into agreement with my husband’s, which has made us feel more at peace about our finances. Thank you for all this, Lisa!”

“Corrie-Ann is amazing. She is so supportive and knowledgeable. She takes the stress out of everything and goes above and beyond to help and guide me. She is always one step ahead in following up on everything. I would not be able to do this without her.”
Corrie-Ann Jone’s Client
“It really transformed my financial management, and I think also just having those frank discussions about what’s negotiable and what’s not negotiable at the moment…It was just absolutely brilliant. It’s actually having somebody to structure it for you and go through it with you. That’s the thing that made the biggest difference.”
Shaila Contractor’s Client
“Clear communication, shared understanding of our goals and excellent strategies to support our success. It is really exciting and motivating to see the graphs projected.”

“Maylyn is so approachable, and she always takes time to clarify points and any uncertainties. She’s encouraging and positive while also keeping us on track and goal-focused. We feel very safe working with her, and we recommend enable.me to everyone we know.”
Maylyn Chai’s Client
“Working with a financial coach makes me feel a lot more in control of my goals and my destiny. It means you don’t have ‘money worries.’ Money worries are the pits, and I feel like I’ve had that until now…. I’m now feeling in control, hitting my financial goals, know my targets and goals. It’s more peaceful as I know I have my will in place, they cover everything, so I feel safe.”
