How are your fees structured?
As a fee-only firm, we do not earn commissions from the investments we recommend, nor do we sell life insurance or annuity products. Our compensation is derived from providing financial advice rather than selling mutual funds. Fees within the financial planning profession vary among firms, and we adhere to a transparent and straightforward fee structure.
We calculate an annual fee based on a percentage of your assets under management. This fee can be paid on a monthly basis, starting at $325 per month, or quarterly directly from your investment accounts.
