We’re different than other financial advisors

We are an independent, fiduciary retirement planning firm. We have policies and procedures that put your interests first. Compass Financial is a locally owned business, so our loyalty is to you and not to a national brand or franchise.
Why a local, independent financial advisor is better for you
We’re different from most larger financial planning firms because we’re totally independent.
I started out at one of the big financial firms, where I was required to sell mutual funds and other retirement products from a very limited selection of options that earned that company the best profits. It was a cookie-cutter operation that didn’t meet the unique needs of individuals.
I left that firm and founded Compass Financial, so I could develop financial planning strategies tailored to each client’s specific needs. All decisions are made locally, in person, between you and me.


We provide financial services as unique as you are
At Compass Financial, you get unbias advice. As an independent agency, we’re not affiliated with a single brand of mutual funds, stocks, or insurance policies. When we help you plan your retirement, we are free to choose from any type and source of retirement planning products. We can shop around to find solutions that fit your unique needs and help you reach your unique goals. As a result, you get access to almost every investment product out there.
Our services are completely individualized. We invest a lot of time into planning your investments. Our clients like that. They see the unique care given to each person.
A “fee-based” retirement planning service is simple & affordable
We only charge a simple “management of assets” fee.
Our fees are fully transparent. When you get your monthly statement, there will be a simple line item for the management fee. There is nothing hidden or confusing.
Are you ready to take the first step?
Our clients come from all walks of life.

Schedule a free financial planning consultation
The first meeting is just to ensure we are compatible. You have to make sure that you trust us, and that you are a good fit for a client.
Then we assess what assets you currently have. We might make recommendations for changes to your retirement plan.
If you choose to become a client, you sign some simple paperwork. Then we submit all the necessary paperwork on your behalf, and we facilitate the transfer of the assets. We try to make it as easy as possible. You won’t have to call your old advisors and “break up” with them. We will handle the entire process for you.
