Certified Financial Planner®
Robert Snell is a Housing Affordability Expert, Certified Financial Planner® and is a Founder and Business Owner of Life Values Pty Ltd.

Robert has been a passionate advocate for first home buyers for many years and has seen the challenges first hand with his client base. Parents of adult children and young adults themselves increasingly worry about how they will ever be able to afford to buy a home. He also worries how his own son might ever afford to buy a home in Sydney. In 2015 he made a submission to the Federal Taxation Review and today continues to talk about why unaffordable housing for Young Australians hurts us all, as a housing affordability expert.
Robert believes that if you work in a city, you should have a reasonable chance to buy a home in that city and that rising home prices are not a sign of success – being able to house your population is. He feels at some point, a home must just be a home and not an investment if Australia is to continue to house its growing population. He helps clients achieve home ownership through the OWN IT program.
