Faqs |
Why should I choose you as my financial advisor?I believe this: some people click and some people don't. A good advisory relationship is like a friendship. You want trust advice, not a sales pitch and I believe that process begins with me being a good listener. Once we get to know each other, I like to invest slowly, over time, using a patient systematic approach that let you feel like we are in control and working collaboratively. |

How are you compensated? How will I pay for your services?work on Depending on what is in the best interest of our client (and their preference) we have a variety of ways of being compensated. As fiduciary advisors we discuss all of these compensation options with our clients before we do any work for them. We prefer to work as investment managers as advisors, but we also offer flat rates for financial and retirement planning and occasionally we are compensated as brokers. All of this is explained before we proceed. |
If you are going to manage my account, will you obtain my permission every time you buy or sell something?Yes, all of our portfolios are custom designed and we discuss how active you'd like to be in the investment process. |
Will you be the only person working with me?Yes, my clients speak directly with me and have my personal cell phone number. |
