Our Services

Our main focus is to manage investment portfolios for individual clients, high net worth families, retirement plans, foundations and endowments. This service is for the client who wants someone to continuously manage their account(s). Briefly here is how it works. Together with you we determine the best approach for your unique investment needs. Then we design a customized investment plan for you based on your unique investment objectives. Once the plan is in place we monitor it for you. Monitoring includes reviewing performance and controlling adherence to your objectives. We will then make any changes necessary to keep you on track.

Events that could trigger changes in your account(s) include changes in market or economic conditions, changes in your situation, changes in your selected investments or better investments that may become available. We then meet with you as often as you wish to go over your account. Clients may impose restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities.

We charge a yearly flat retainer fee or a percentage of assets fee for this service. The fee depends on the size of the account and the amount of service required. The fee includes recommending, purchasing securities and monitoring your investment account. We receive no commissions or fees from anyone else. We do receive brokerage services from Charles Schwab. The fee you pay us is the only money we receive. This leaves us free to put you into the best lowest cost investments available and allows us to give you truly unbiased advice.
