Fees
Our rate is $260/hour for the Project-based Financial Planning Service.
Your hourly fee total will depend upon the scope of work, which will consider your specific needs. We will have a complimentary conversation to better understand your needs and inform the estimated cost range we provide.
We require an advance payment of a portion of the fee with the remainder due upon completion of the advisory engagement. The advance payment is $1,300. However, if the estimated total fee for the engagement likely will be less than $1,300, then the advance payment is 50% of the estimated total fee.
