Our goal is to offer our clients comprehensive and customized financial plans. We charge fees so that we can offer unbiased recommendations without any obligations on your part.
The financial planning fees depend on the complexity of your situation.
Should you choose to move your investment to us, industry-standard investment management fees will apply depending on the investments selected. We receive standard industry trailer fees regardless of the investment we recommend. Our fees are based on the size of your investment which means we are incentivized to grow your wealth creating a win-win relationship.
Should you choose to act on our insurance recommendation, there is no charge other than the insurance premium paid to be directed to the insurance company. We receive commission directly from the insurance company based on the insurance solution selected.
As an independent broker working with major insurance and investment institutions, we offer unbiased investment and insurance recommendations.
Bank advisors tend to move around putting your long-term relationship with your advisor at risk when you may need it the most. However, with an independent advisor, you are choosing your life-team member.
