Financial Planning
We are committed to helping our clients during every stage of their financial journey. Financial planning is an ongoing, proactive process that keeps clients engaged and focused on their goals. Throughout the lives of our clients, we often communicate with their other trusted Advisors such as CPA’s, Lenders and Estate Planning attorneys.
Discovery
The initial discovery process allows our team to find out what matters most to our clients. Financial planning is as much about life, as it is accumulating, preserving and spending wealth. In our early meetings, we get to know what’s important about money to our clients. By completing a thorough analysis, we will have a clear understanding of one’s current financial picture and the outcomes they wish to achieve. Some important items that are discussed:
Cash Flow Planning
Debt Reduction
Financial commitments to family members
Current investment accounts
Current retirement accounts
Current real estate holdings
Near-term expenses
Charitable gifting
Insurance coverages
Education needs
Goals-Based Planning
Once the initial discovery process is complete, we match client interests with the appropriate goals- based investment strategy. Additionally, we assess debt levels and provide a plan to get out of debt if warranted.
Implementation
Our financial planning software is the springboard that gives clients a tangible visual of their current financial life, and where they are headed. We not only monitor the assets we are managing, but also have the ability to keep track of outside assets such as 401k plans and other investment accounts. Our goal is to have a rock solid plan in place so clients can do the things they love to do and not worry about their finances.
