What we do
At Common Sense Financial Planning, our approach is to help you and your family understand what is most important. When we have a conversation with you, we focus on understanding how you see your wealth contributing meaning and happiness to your life. We find that families stay better connected when they see their wealth and values aligned, and by doing so, each can simplify the process to reaching their long-term financial objectives.
Our advice process gives us an understanding of where you are today, where you wish to be and then together we make a plan to best fill the gaps along the journey.
Our services fall into three broad categories outlined below. The chances are, you will need aspects of each over time and won't fit neatly in any of them - which doesn't concern us. We're far more interested in how we can help you and your family achieve whatever is most important to you.
