common questions

A Few Things People Usually Want to Know

What does it cost to work with you?

There is only a cost should you decide to implement your custom plan. This gives you plenty of time to get to know us, ask any questions, and understand your plan fully before you ever pay a dime. We wish we could tell you how much it will cost to implement your plan. However, until we go through the process, we don’t even know what your plan will entail. So, providing you with a quote is not possible.

Why does it matter that you're actually part of the Dunwoody community?

Financial planning is personal, and it's easier to trust someone who isn't a stranger passing through. Mike has lived and worked in this community for years. Through the Rotary Club of Dunwoody, his kids’ schools, tennis teams, and Sunday school classes, Mike has built a life for himself and his family that he truly values.  There can be comfort in knowing that your family’s planning is in the hands of someone who has deep ties to the community.

Don't Just Save for college. Make college cost less.

Every year, Dunwoody students pay thousands of dollars in unnecessary tuition because they are unaware of the organizational steps that could decrease their tuition costs. Through simple planning and organization, these same parents could make college significantly less expensive. It takes planning ahead because colleges look back two years.  So, your son’s freshman year tuition will be based on your taxes from his sophomore year of high school. A small amount of planning ahead could save you tens of thousands of dollars in unnecessary tuition.
