Company details

Written by the company

The Estate Kit publishes one thing, and publishes it properly: The Aussie Estate Kit — a guided, fill-in folder that puts everything your executor will need in one place. Most families have a will. Almost nobody leaves the rest: which bank holds what, the super fund and who's actually nominated on it, the life policy, the subscriptions, the online accounts, where the title deeds are. Our customers call it an eye opener. A will says who gets what. It doesn't say where anything is — and your super usually doesn't pass through the will at all. The kit follows the real timeline after a death in Australia — the first 48 hours, the first 28 days, the first 6 months — with step-by-step guidance, ready-to-send notification letters, and registers you fill in yourself. It's written for how things actually work here: the binding death benefit nomination on your super, Centrelink and Services Australia, the Australian Death Notification Service, Medicare and the ATO, and a grant of probate through your own State or Territory. It's a digital product. It arrives by email within minutes of ordering. Fill it in on a computer, tablet or phone, or print it and write by hand, and update it whenever something changes. What it is not: a will, legal advice, or a probate service. It's an organising tool, and we say so plainly on every page. Every order is covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee, on top of your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. Support emails are answered by a real person, usually the same day.

So comprehensive!

I've only just downloaded the Family Kit and the Executor Guide and read through all the info, but I can already see that it is so comprehensive. I had already written copious notes for my stepdaughter (executor), but there are so many things I hadn’t thought of. I love the timeline, which helps calm the executor in a very stressful time. Now to start filling it in!

Ripped off

The impression given by the advertising is of a physical kit that can be prepared and ready for the family. This is only available if you pay many extra dollars, but you aren't told that until after you have paid the initial fee.
It is deceptive advertising.

Hi Christine,

“Ripped off” is a tough one to read! 😅

We do our best to make it clear throughout our website and advertising that The Estate Kit is a digital product. There’s absolutely no intention to mislead anyone about what they’re purchasing.

More importantly, every purchase is covered by our 30-day money-back guarantee. I believe your order may already have been refunded, but if that’s not the case, please email me directly at raphael@theestatekit.com and I’ll make sure your refund is treated as a priority.

We’d much rather give you your money back than have you feel disappointed with what you received.

We all need to have a plan- this could help you make yours. Not just for oldies!!!

I found this online and as always a bit sceptical BUT I am glad I purchased it has helped me de-stress about getting my life in order as I age. The scariest item is sorting my digital footprint and the docs have helped to start thinking about this and putting a plan in action. I have recommended it to several friends now. It takes a bit of time but it will be well worth it once it's completed. Follow up from the author has been great too- just checking in to see how I am going. It is written for the Australian context whereas many others related to the US. This is not just for older people- life can take a turn at anytime- don't leave your loved ones scrabbling around when they are grieving.

Thank you so much, Heather, for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review.

We’re really glad the kit has helped you feel more organised and less stressed, especially around something as important — and often overlooked — as your digital footprint.

You’re absolutely right that planning ahead isn’t only for older people. Life can change unexpectedly, and having everything clearly documented can make an enormous difference for loved ones later on.

Thank you as well for recommending us to your friends. It genuinely means a lot to us, and we’re very pleased to hear that our follow-up support has been helpful too.

Warm regards,
The Estate Kit Team

Thanks Willem! A will is important, but there’s so much more that can be organised to make things easier for those left behind. Glad you found the instructions clear and useful.

Fast and helpful followup advice

Fast and very helpful response to a query I had about document location on my computer.
Still working my way through the kit but it seems comprehensive enough and easy to follow.
I didn't expect a foreign exchange fee from my bank (the order was processed in France) but that's not the Kit's fault.

Great product and well worth getting

Very fast and an easy process to purchase. We are really impressed with the product. Lots of things we'd not even thought of before that should be done or noted down.

That’s wonderful to hear, Carol! It’s often the little things we don’t think to write down that can make a big difference later. Glad the whole process was easy from the start, and thank you for the lovely feedback.

So pleased to hear this, Susan. Having everything in one place and ready when it’s needed is exactly the peace of mind we want the Kit to bring. Thank you for choosing us!

Absolutely brilliant!

Absolutely brilliant! The Aussie Estate Kit is so comprehensive and clear. I pity the average Joe executor who doesn’t have this knowledge because this business of death is a total minefield otherwise. Information, while available, is scattered across each and every organisation and business. With The Aussie Estate Kit, it’s all there, with advice about pitfalls, time management, and so on.
I’ve done the bulk of my file and will soon have it completed. Then I’ll start on my husband’s. The kit has brought up some important issues I need to consider. Without the kit I wouldn’t have given a thought to these matters.

Additionally, Raphael has been proactive in checking that I have been happy and confident with The Aussie Estate Kit, emailing me on a couple of occasions and assuring me that help is at hand should I need it. I am extremely pleased that I purchased The Aussie Estate Kit and have already recommended it to family and friends, and I have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone else who is considering purchasing it. Nobody wants to leave a muddle for their loved ones to try to work through. Without the kit, there will be a massive mess unless you happen to be one of those people who does this sort of thing for a living and knows exactly what is what in these situations. Not too many people are in that boat - most are on the Titanic, lacking the relevant knowledge and heading straight for an iceberg.

What a fantastic review, Alison — and we may have to borrow the Titanic analogy! We’re delighted the Kit has helped you bring everything together and, just as importantly, highlighted a few things that might otherwise have been missed. Thank you as well for recommending us to your family and friends. It genuinely means a great deal to us.

The documentation was very concise... I thought I had a good idea of what is required to leave for family to make it easier for them in so far as documentation etc is required but there were things in the Kit that I hadn't even though of. .. and I run a business so more things to think of.

Thank you, Carol. It means a lot to hear that even with your business and finance background, the Kit still brought a few important things to your attention. That’s exactly why we wanted it to be thorough without making the process feel overwhelming. Really appreciate you sharing your experience.

Prompt download and very useful information

I was able to download almost instantly, which is very refreshing compared to most other purchases that I have made in recent times.
There seems to be a lot of very useful information and I look forward to getting everything together for my family follow in the future

Peace of Mind…

The kit and guide seem to be very comprehensive. Just gathering the information for myself has shown me how difficult it would be for family to find all the information. Really like all the detailed information about what needs to be done after a death to settle an estate. Gives me peace of mind that my children will have a guide and also will be helpful for me if and when I need to deal with the passing of a relative . Receved quick reply to a question I had.

Thank you, Lynn. It’s amazing how much information there is to keep track of once you start gathering it all together. We’re really glad the kit has given you that peace of mind and a clear guide for your family when they need it.
