About Kefauver Financial Planning & Wealth Management
Kefauver Financial Planning & Wealth Management works with families and professionals needing serious financial planning and investment assistance for lifes important milestones, such as the approach to, and time in, retirement.

From more than two decades of financial planning and service, we are convinced of three simple things:

Everyone has BIG IDEAS to fund. You have meaningful, life-long aspirations. Whether retirement or something else, these need consistent action and a financial plan. We can help with both.

Funding starts by AVOIDING MISTAKES. Our most important work is to help you avoid the Big Mistake: over-reaction to life stress or market conditions during moments that risk derailment of long-term plans.

SMART PLANNING can help you get there. Flexible, comprehensive financial planning and thoughtful advice can provide reassurance as you endeavor to enjoy more of life's simple pleasures. Let's start today.
