About Centuria Financial Group
Centuria Financial Group is a financial planning and wealth management office located in Finksburg, Maryland, serving individuals, families, and business owners throughout Carroll County and surrounding communities. We help clients organize their financial lives, understand their options, and make informed decisions with greater clarity and confidence. Our approach begins with what matters most to you. We take time to understand your goals, current financial picture, priorities, concerns, and the people or causes you want your wealth to support. From there, our team develops personalized strategies designed to connect the different areas of your financial life rather than addressing each decision in isolation.

Our services include comprehensive financial planning, retirement planning, investment management, portfolio analysis, risk management, education funding, cash-flow and net-worth analysis, Social Security and pension planning, insurance planning, annuity guidance, business-owner planning, and estate and legacy planning strategies. When appropriate, we coordinate with your attorney, tax professional, and other advisors to help keep your broader plan aligned.

Clients often come to us when they are preparing for retirement, changing jobs, considering a 401(k) rollover, managing an inheritance, reviewing insurance needs, planning for a child's education, navigating a major life transition, or seeking a more organized and proactive approach to their finances. We also work with business owners on personal and business financial planning, employee benefits, insurance protection strategies, and succession considerations.

Financial planning is not a one-time event. Our process is collaborative and ongoing: we gather and organize relevant information, analyze your circumstances, present recommendations and possible scenarios, help establish an implementation timeline, and review your progress as your life and priorities evolve. Clients also have access to modern planning technology that can provide a consolidated view of accounts, spending, investments, goals, and important documents.

Our team includes professionals who hold advanced industry designations, including CFP®, WMCP®, ChFC®, CLU®, and RICP®. This breadth of knowledge supports a team-based approach to complex planning needs while keeping recommendations grounded in each client's individual circumstances, time horizon, and comfort with risk.

At Centuria Financial Group, we believe thoughtful financial guidance should be personal, understandable, and connected to real life. Our goal is to give clients a clear framework for making financial decisions today while staying focused on the people, priorities, and legacy that matter most over time.

Securities and investment advisory services are offered through LPL Enterprise (LPLE), a registered investment adviser, Member FINRA/SIPC, and an affiliate of LPL Financial. LPLE and LPL Financial are not affiliated with Centuria Financial Group.

Financial Planning for Businesses
Business decisions and personal financial goals are often closely connected. Centuria Financial Group helps business owners develop financial strategies for both the company they are building and the future they want beyond it. Planning may include business continuity, succession and exit considerations, key-person insurance protection, buy-sell funding, owner retirement strategies, employee benefits, cash reserves, and coordination between business and personal assets. We work alongside your attorney, accountant, and other professionals when specialized legal or tax guidance is needed. Business owners in Carroll County, Frederick County, and surrounding Maryland communities receive a planning process built around their company, family, priorities, and timeline. Recommendations are reviewed as the business grows, ownership changes, or new opportunities arise.
Financial Planning for Individuals
A personal financial plan brings your income, savings, investments, risk management , and future goals into one organized strategy. Centuria Financial Group begins by learning what matters most to you, then reviews your current financial position and identifies practical next steps. Individual financial planning may address cash flow, debt, retirement, investment allocation, insurance, education expenses, major purchases, and estate planning considerations. Your plan can also model alternative scenarios so you can better understand how different decisions may affect your goals. We serve individuals throughout Carroll County, Frederick County, and neighboring Maryland communities with clear, personalized guidance. Plans are reviewed and updated as your career, family, priorities, and financial circumstances evolve.
Financial Advice & Consulting
Not every financial question requires a complete overhaul of your plan. Financial advice and consulting can provide focused guidance when you are comparing options, facing a major decision, or seeking a professional second opinion. Centuria Financial Group helps clients evaluate topics such as retirement timing, investment choices, employee benefits, insurance needs, cash flow, major purchases, and competing financial goals. We organize the relevant information, explain potential advantages and tradeoffs in clear language, and offer recommendations based on your specific circumstances. Individuals, families, and business owners in Carroll County, Frederick County, and surrounding Maryland communities can use this service for targeted questions or as part of an ongoing financial planning relationship.
Portfolio Management
Centuria Financial Group provides personalized portfolio management for individuals and families in Carroll County, Frederick County, and surrounding Maryland communities. What is portfolio management? It is the ongoing process of selecting, monitoring, and adjusting investments based on your goals, time horizon, income needs, and comfort with risk. Our financial planners evaluate asset allocation, diversification, account types, expenses, and how your investments support your broader financial plan. We review portfolios regularly and may recommend rebalancing as markets, goals, and life circumstances change. Every strategy is tailored to the client. Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal, and no strategy can guarantee results.
Retirement Planning
Centuria Financial Group provides personalized retirement planning for individuals and families in Carroll County, Frederick County, and surrounding Maryland communities. What does retirement planning include? We help clients evaluate their retirement goals, projected expenses, savings, investments, pensions, Social Security benefits, and potential income needs. Our financial planners can model different retirement scenarios, review withdrawal strategies, and identify considerations that may affect the timing of retirement. Plans are reviewed over time and adjusted as your priorities, resources, and circumstances change. Retirement planning cannot guarantee a specific outcome, but it can help you make informed decisions and prepare for the years ahead.
401K Rollovers
Centuria Financial Group helps individuals in Carroll County, Frederick County, and surrounding Maryland communities understand their 401(k) rollover options after changing jobs or retiring. What can you do with an old 401(k)? Depending on your plan and circumstances, you may be able to leave the assets in the former employer's plan, transfer them to a new employer's plan, roll them into an IRA, or take a distribution. Our financial planners explain the potential benefits, limitations, fees, investment choices, services, and tax considerations associated with each option. A rollover is not appropriate for everyone, and distributions may result in taxes or penalties. We help you compare your choices so you can make an informed decision consistent with your retirement plan. Consult a qualified tax professional regarding your individual tax situation.
Insurance Planning
Insurance should support your financial plan, family responsibilities, and ability to recover from an unexpected event. Our insurance planning process starts with a review of your current coverage, employer benefits, income, debts, dependents, assets, and long-term goals. Centuria Financial Group can help evaluate needs related to life insurance, disability income protection, and long-term care planning while explaining available options, costs, limitations, and tradeoffs. We also review ownership and beneficiary information and consider how coverage fits alongside retirement, estate, and business planning. Individuals, families, and business owners across Carroll County, Frederick County, and surrounding Maryland communities receive recommendations based on their circumstances. Insurance products involve costs, exclusions, and eligibility requirements, and coverage should be reviewed periodically as needs change.
Annuities
We help clients evaluate whether an annuity may fit within their retirement income strategy by explaining available options, costs, liquidity limitations, income features, and guarantees. Guarantees are subject to the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company.
Estate Planning & Trusts
An estate plan helps clarify how your assets, responsibilities, and wishes should be handled during your lifetime and after your death. Centuria Financial Group supports the financial side of estate planning by reviewing beneficiary designations, account ownership, insurance coverage, liquidity needs, charitable goals, and how assets may coordinate with wills or trusts prepared by an attorney. We can help identify questions to discuss with your estate planning attorney and incorporate completed legal documents into your broader financial strategy. This collaborative service is available to individuals and families throughout Carroll County, Frederick County, and nearby Maryland communities. Centuria Financial Group, LPL Enterprise, and LPL Financial do not provide legal or tax advice or prepare estate documents. Clients should consult qualified legal and tax professionals regarding their circumstances.
Tax Advice and Services
Taxes can affect investment, retirement, charitable giving, and estate planning decisions. Centuria Financial Group offers tax-aware financial planning by helping clients identify financial decisions that may have tax implications and coordinating those decisions with their qualified tax professionals. Topics may include retirement account distributions, Roth conversion considerations, capital gains, charitable strategies, and the placement of investments across account types. We help clients prepare informed questions and incorporate guidance from their CPA or tax attorney into the broader financial plan. This support is available to clients in Carroll County, Frederick County, and surrounding Maryland communities. Centuria Financial Group, LPL Enterprise, and LPL Financial do not provide tax or legal advice. Clients should consult a qualified tax professional regarding their individual circumstances.
Education Funding and Planning
Education planning can help families prepare for future school or college costs without losing sight of retirement and other financial priorities. Centuria Financial Group helps parents and grandparents estimate funding needs, set savings goals, and compare options such as 529 plans, custodial accounts, and other education savings strategies. We also consider the timing of contributions and withdrawals, financial aid factors, family cash flow, and how education expenses fit within the broader financial plan. Families in Carroll County, Frederick County, and nearby Maryland communities receive guidance tailored to their timeline, resources, and goals. Because account rules and tax treatment vary, clients should consult a qualified tax professional about their individual circumstances.
Investment Advice & Management
Your investment strategy should reflect the purpose of your money, not simply the latest market trend. Centuria Financial Group provides investment advice and ongoing management based on each client's goals, time horizon, income needs, tax considerations, and willingness to accept risk. We review existing holdings, account types, diversification, asset allocation, costs, and how the portfolio fits within your retirement or financial plan. When appropriate, we recommend adjustments and monitor the strategy as markets and personal circumstances change. Our financial planners serve investors across Carroll County, Frederick County, and nearby Maryland communities with clear explanations and regular reviews. Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal, and no investment approach can guarantee results.
Wealth Management
Centuria Financial Group provides personalized wealth management for individuals, families, professionals, and business owners in Carroll County, Frederick County, and surrounding Maryland communities. What is wealth management? It is a coordinated approach to organizing investments, retirement planning, cash flow, risk management, insurance needs, education funding, and estate planning considerations. Our financial planners begin by understanding your goals, resources, priorities, and comfort with risk. We then develop recommendations, coordinate with your tax and legal professionals when appropriate, and review your plan as your life and financial circumstances change. Wealth management does not guarantee financial results, but it can provide a structured process for making informed financial decisions.
Risk Management
Financial risk management helps prepare your plan for events that could disrupt your income, savings, family, or long-term goals. Centuria Financial Group works with clients to identify potential financial risks and evaluate the resources already in place. This may include reviewing emergency reserves, life and disability insurance, long-term care considerations, investment risk, beneficiary designations, and protection needs for a family or business. We explain where potential gaps may exist and help clients consider solutions that fit their priorities and budget. For individuals, families, and business owners across Carroll County, Frederick County, and nearby Maryland communities, the focus is on building a more resilient financial plan while recognizing that no strategy can eliminate every risk.
Money Management
Good money management starts with understanding where your money is going and giving each financial decision a clear purpose. At Centuria Financial Group, we help clients organize cash flow, review spending and debt, establish emergency savings, prioritize competing goals, and connect everyday financial choices to a broader financial plan. This service can be especially helpful during career changes, marriage, growing a family, a major purchase, or preparation for retirement. Serving Carroll County, Frederick County, and nearby Maryland communities, our financial planners provide practical guidance based on your income, obligations, resources, and priorities. The goal is not a one-size-fits-all budget, but a realistic framework you can review and adjust as life changes.
