Products and Services

We are able to provide the following products and services:

INVESTMENT SOLUTIONS*

Regular Brokerage- For those not needing regular and periodic portfolio changes a simple brokerage account may be the least costly solution. We can offer a wide choice of custodians  from which to choose. A transaction fee applies only when something is bought or sold in the account.          

Advisory Accounts- Generally these are our most popular offerings which offers regular account monitoring and periodic portfolio modifications and rebalancing to reflect changes in the markets. A competitive monthly or quarterly advisory fee based on the assets under management will apply, regardless of the number or frequency of changes made to the account. A number of custodians are available for our clients.

401K and Defined Benefit Plans- Whether for "solo" solutions up to larger businesses with many employees, we can offer retirement plan solutions that help business principals and their employees save for retirement and contribute to employee retention and loyalty.

Variable Annuities- We can offer variable annuities (along with non-variable fixed types as well) for those clients wanting a long term retirement solution that provides a guarantee provided  by the offering company. We will explain all aspects of these often complicated strategies for the client before they invest.

Note: Guarantees are subject to the claims-paying ability of the insurance company. Withdrawals of earnings are subject to ordinary income tax and prior to age 59½ may be subject to a 10% federal tax penalty.

Variable Life Insurance- We offer variable life insurance (along with non-variable fixed types as well) for those clients who need life insurance and also want an instrument through which  their contributions may receive market-based returns. We will explain the pros and cons of this type of insurance versus other, lower risk options to ensure the client has a thorough understanding of the strategy that best fits their needs.

College Funding- We offer college funding options and can establish 529 Plan accounts for those clients interested in helping children and grand-children being able to afford the ever  increasingly high cost for college.
