We require a minimum of $100,000 in investable assets you would like to only invest with us. The fee for our values integrated portfolios starts at 1.25% for up to $500,000 assets and declines thereafter according to published fee schedule. With your investment, you will receive quarterly reports on your investments along with reporting from your custodian, typically Charles Schwab. At least once a year, you will receive values reports when you meet with your adviser. As you may expect, clients with higher investable amounts may receive additional services such as tax loss harvesting. As we have several options, your specific service delivery will be discussed with you prior to entering into your agreement.
We appreciate that giving your financial details to a stranger can be scary. Our client and prospect confidentiality is very important to us, which is why we can’t offer client contact information to provide references.

During or shortly after a Visualize meeting Envision will determine your price and the number of meetings your plan is expected to take. Our pricing is based on complexity. Elements can include, marital status, number of incomes, age, dependent children, Citizenship, etc. Pricing often is $2400 to $12,000 for the initial plan. We convert that into a per meeting price by dividing the fee by the number of meetings. For example, $2400 divided by 3 meetings is $800 per meeting. A $12,000 fee and 6 meetings would be $2000 per meeting. If additional meetings are required, there will be an additional fee, most often at the calculated per meeting fee.Once the agreement is signed, we move forward to the Analyze meeting, During this meeting then look to see if you are on track to your financial goals based on your current actions. As you may assume, most of our clients do not find themselves on track and require some change either in the amount they're saving, returns they're achieving or time frame for when they want to hit their individual goals. Our initial plan is delivered during an Analyze meeting. We typically show a number of options that could deliver your desired outcome. After determining what trade-offs are right for you, we then see if we can Optimize things further through tax planning or maximizing pensions and Social Security. Once the initial plan is determined, we then move on to the Modernize Phase or what could be referred to as subscription-based financial planning.
Simply put, a subscription allows us to discern between investing and financial planning. Many traditional firms require a certain amount of investable assets if they are going to provide any kind of financial planning. The majority of people don't have household assets of $1 million to $5 million plus. Our subscription allows us to provide ongoing financial planning to help our clients pursue having those types of assets. If you're like many you also find yourself entangled with student loan debt. This has nothing to do with investable assets. We want to help people remove these types of encumbrances from the pursuit of their financial happiness
Once the initial financial planning is completed, we then move into the subscription portion of planning. While most clients pay $200.00 a month, this may vary based upon individual circumstances. All of this is discussed with our clients prior. Additionally, you are not locked into a long-term contract. You can cancel at anytime.
While our office is based in Chicago, we have clients all over the United States. If you are a resident in one of the 50 states or the US territories, we can provide investing and/or financial planning services.
