Our Process

Relationships and knowledge are the foundations upon which we build every client portfolio. We first get to know you, your current situation and your aspirations for the future. A 25-year-old early in his or her career has different financial needs and plans than new parents in their thirties or a couple with adult children looking toward retirement. This is the first step in custom-designing a financial pathway to get you there.

When you come to us we ask you to:

  • Provide us with all your current finances – bank accounts, investments, etc. – allowing us to perform an in-depth analysis of your income and both current and projected expenses.
  • Share with us your financial goals for the future – college funding, a second home, retirement – and your timeline.
  • Tell us your tolerance for risk.
With this as the cornerstone, we strategically build your portfolio, one step at a time. Ongoing management of your account entails continual review of its performance as compared to the market and adjustments as necessary within the parameters of your tolerance for risk, regularly keeping you informed you of changes. We communicate often and are readily available.

In addition, we offer a 360 degree menu of financial products – such as investment tools, fixed income options and annuities – we use to create and manage your portfolio. We earn no commission on these products and serve simply as your guide. Our compensation is a negotiated fee based on a percentage of your account value on a quarterly basis. All accounts are custodied at Fidelity Investments.
