Our Rates
Our clients never pay a sales commission, and we never receive compensation from any other financial institution. This is what it means to be fee-only, which provides our basis for independence and objectivity.

New ongoing clients must generally have a minimum portfolio value of $750,000, or be expected to meet this minimum shortly after becoming a client. This is to ensure we can provide our comprehensive services at competitive rates. To the extent that a household has a total investment balance of less than $750,000 at any given time, an annual rate of 1.15% is assessed for that period.
