Stuart is a Qualified Property Investment Advisor who joined Empower Wealth in January 2018. To date he has built more than 300 strategies for clients and help transform their financial futures to drive passive income and build wealth over the long term. His experience, passion and analytical skills form a solid foundation, allowing him to provide professional advice in this complicated area.

Stuart started the property journey in 2001 and now owns a multi-million property portfolio, including an unencumbered owner occupier. Property is his no 1 asset class and he also holds shares, ETFs and Crypto for diversification. Whilst his wealth position is strong, he has made mistakes along the way, and uses this knowledge to ensure his clients don’t make the same errors on their property journeys.

He understands the importance of money management, lending, defence (insurances), Superannuation and diversification, working to educate his clients on these different areas and connect them to specialists when required. In true Empower Wealth way, he ‘high fives’ clients when their actions helped achieve the desired outcome and ‘eyeballs’ them when their actions are not in their best interest.

Prior to the Property Investment industry, Stuart held leadership positions across most of his 15 year digital advertising career working for Salesforce, LinkedIn, DoubleClick / Google and other multinationals across Australia and the UK. He holds a BA (Hons) in Financial Services from the University of West of England and a Financial Planning Certificate from the Chartered Insurance Institute in the UK.

Stuart is married with 2 girls and his weekends are spent running around with them. In his spare time, he is training for the next Spartan Race.

Stu was great to deal with. He took time to understand my needs and desired outcomes and came up with ways to assess those and recommend a final strategy.

We would highly recommend working with Stuart and Empower Wealth to anyone needing clarification on planning their property and wealth journey. Prior to reaching out to Empower Wealth we had educated ourselves to create better money habits and secured jobs with higher incomes. We did this with the plan of wanting to buy more property to help us create wealth. However, we hit a stagnant position where we no longer knew how to keep moving forward and needed to get guidance and reassurance to keep momentum. Our first meeting with Stuart we instantly knew he could help us create a plan. He provided a space for us to feel comfortable to share our journey so far and express our fears and unease. We felt as though Stuart really cared and it wasn't just a job for him. Our first meeting went way over time as he really got to know us, this really showed us that Stuart had our best interests at heart. Every appointment through the Property Wealth Planning process built upon the one before. It was never overwhelming for us, it was quite the opposite actually - each appointment Stuart educated us more and more leaving us feeling inspired. We have now finished the Property Wealth Planning process and we have a clear achievable roadmap for our property and wealth future journey. We cannot thank Stuart enough for his time and dedication in helping us. It has been completely life-changing.

Hi Dilan here. I had the pleasure of working with Stuart Bartram to create my property plan. To be honest the first phone call I had with Stuart I felt like it may not be for me, for the simple fact as I realised how little I really know about money and money management. But after that phone call and the way Stuart spoken in simple terms for my understanding I knew this was what I needed and thankfully I did. Over the next few calls I feel like I’ve learnt so much and realised just how valuable it is to speak with someone with great understanding and knowledge and experience in property and money management. I cannot recommend this service enough if not for the property plan it’s self (which is fantastic and very easy to understand and beautifully executed) but for the professionalism and wealth of knowledge you receive from just a few phone calls with the team at empowered wealth. I can’t thank the team enough and can’t wait to stay in contact with them for years to come.

Stuart provided excellent service in the provision of our Plan. He was very responsive and open to questions. We felt he had a wealth of knowledge and experience. He was diligent in exploring our situation and goals, then going through the Plan in detail.

Being new to property investment, Empower Wealth has helped me build the important foundation for this long but exciting journey. I have received expert advice on many different areas and can say that every part of the experience has been invaluable to me.
