We are independent advisors and our advice and recommendations are objective. We are not required to sell proprietary products and will discuss a variety of suitable options with you. You have the freedom to choose from multiple companies and product lines that fit your specific need.
The fees or commissions you'll pay depend entirely on how you'd like to work with us.
Planning Services: If we agree that entering into a financial planning agreement makes the most sense for your situation, you'll pay a flat fee for each year we work on your plan.
Asset Management: If we actively manage your investment assets, you'll pay a percentage of the assets placed under our care.
Transactional: If you purchase an insurance product, mutual fund, or annuity, we will be paid a commission by the company whose product you have chosen to purchase.
We work with you in the capacity and mode that you prefer.
