We sit with you, in plain language, until your retirement, your estate and your investments finally make sense — and stay that way.
A drawer of statements from three different providers, none of them talking to each other.
A retirement date you’re not sure you can afford to keep.
Decisions made alone, late at night, based on half-read articles.
A vague sense that you should ‘probably get advice’ — one day.
One clear plan, reviewed with you twice a year, in language you actually understand.
A retirement age you’ve stress-tested against three different scenarios.
A named consultant who answers the phone and remembers your circumstances.
Documents, beneficiaries and policies finally in order — and filed where you can find them.
Most advice fails not because it’s wrong, but because the client never understood it well enough to trust it. We walk through the reasoning first — the numbers, the trade-offs, the tax implications — so that whatever we suggest afterwards feels like your decision, not ours.
You will have a named person at Elvaris & Co who knows your file, your family and your history with money. When you call, you’re not repeating your story to whoever picks up — you’re continuing a conversation.
Our fee structure is disclosed upfront and does not depend on which product you choose. If the right answer for you is to do nothing this year, we’ll tell you that too.
You have savings, a pension or two, maybe a property — but no single picture of what it adds up to, or whether it’s enough. We build that picture with you, and stress-test it against early retirement, later retirement, and the unexpected.
A parent has passed, a business has landed in your name, or you’ve simply realised no one else is going to sort this out. We help you make the first decisions calmly, without pressure to act before you’re ready.
Income is healthy, investments are growing, and you’d rather protect that momentum with proper structure — tax-efficient, estate-ready, and built to survive a change in circumstances — than leave it to chance.
Our consulting room on Kloof Street, Gardens, where most first meetings take place.
A planning session in progress — plans are always shown on paper, never just on-screen.
Table Mountain from our second-floor window, most mornings.
One of our senior consultants reviewing a retirement projection with a long-standing client.
The reading corner where clients wait — kettle always on.
A family meeting, three generations, one shared plan.
Files closed, coffee poured — the end of a review that took the whole afternoon.
Our small team, mid-discussion, going over a client’s estate structure.
The Kloof Street facade — easy to find, hard to miss.
Bring your statements, your questions, or just your uncertainty — we’ll help you find the shape of the problem before we talk about solutions.
Tell us a little about what’s on your mind and a consultant from Elvaris & Co will be in touch to arrange a time.
