Our Fee-Only Approach

It’s not about a product.
It’s about a solution.

Your dream retirement is far too complex to be solved by a product.

^{Advisor Costs}
It’s All in the Details

There are three alternative methods of compensation that most financial advisors can fall under.

Fee Only

Fee only advisors are compensated directly by clients for the advice they give. They receive no compensation, commissions, or referral fees from their recommendations. No matter what they recommend, the compensation received is the same, eliminating many potential conflicts of interest.

Commissioned

Commissioned advisors earn commissions, or some form of kickback, based on the investment transactions they make for clients. Different investments pay the advisors different commission rates, leading to potential conflicts of interest. Is the recommendation made because it is thought to be the best option, or because it will pay the advisor the highest commission?

Fee-Based

Fee-based advisors earn fees for advice they give but can also earn commissions on investment and insurance products they sell, which can result in potential conflicts of interest.

Why we chose Fee-only

We proudly choose to operate as fee-only advisors because we believe the fee-only method is the most transparent, objective and fair method available to our clients. The recommendations we make are what we believe are in the best interest of our clients instead of the best interest of the advisors.
