CLIENT INTERESTS FIRST
Why Flat Fee?
We are passionate about offering a flat-fee only pricing structure to deliver ethical, high-quality services that are fair, transparent, predictable, and accessible.
Working with a flat-fee financial advisor reduces conflicts of interest and allows more of your money to compound for you, not against you. We believe it’s unfair to pay more simply because you’re worth more. Our fixed-dollar fees reflect our work, not your net worth.

AUM AND COMMISSION-BASED FEE STRUCTURES
How Most Firms Charge
The two most common approaches to charging clients for financial advice are the commission-based model and assets under management (AUM) approach. These two fee structures present different challenges for prospective clients.
For example, advisors that earn commissions are not fiduciary and are not legally bound to place client interests first so a client might be sold financial products they don’t need.
Under the AUM model, a fee is determined based on the asset balances your advisor manages, typically ranging from 0.8% – 1.5% per year. The median average is about 1%. So, if you need help managing $2 million in assets, you might expect to pay 1% in fees per year ($20,000). If a firm manages $5 million of your assets, you would likely pay $30,000 – $50,000 in annual fees. And as your assets grow, you will pay even more in annual fees.
Though the AUM model is common among wealthier clients, and widely adopted in the wealth management industry, this fee structure is no longer delivering the greatest value to clients.
The result is that many pre-retirees and retirees are sold products they don’t need and/or pay high fees for financial planning and investment management. Unfortunately, some people don’t seek out expertise guidance because of their fear of being sold unnecessary financial products or worry about high annual AUM fees. Strict account minimums often associated with AUM firms also prohibit retirees from obtaining wealth management services.
