Our Process

Become & Remain Financially Independent

“First and foremost  – clients hire us to protect and prudently grow their portfolios. But they’re thrilled with the quality of advice, actionable financial plans and support we offer to take control of their financial lives.” — Sandor Kiss, Wealth Advisor

Our Proven Process

We strive to simplify your financial world by delegating your portfolio management; and receiving customized advice and prompt service. Our process integrates many specialized disciplines.

Once we have a portfolio manager in place to manage your investments, we begin an ongoing planning and collaboration process to support clients with advice and specialists as their financial needs evolve during their lifetime.

Importance of a comprehensive wealth plan

A comprehensive wealth plan provides clients with clarity and confidence in their financial future, resulting in peace of mind. 

The saying “If you don’t know where you’re going, then any road will do” highlights the importance of a comprehensive wealth plan. Without one, you will be uncertain about important financial factors, making it impossible to make good decisions to achieve and maintain financial independence.  What are some of the big questions on your mind?
