Most brokerage firms offer "house brands" of investment products. Which are very important to the company, because they receive commissions, management fees and underwriting fees -three types of income- everytime they make a sale. Unfortunately, when your broker is partial to a particular product, you may not be getting objective counsel.

And this lack of objectivity should make you eager to make a change. At our office, we pick top performing products for your consideration based on your needs, not ours. We don't have house brands because we know that no one investment can possibly be the right solution for everyone. Please call us. We'll give you a free hour consultation that will show you how to preserve your freedom of choice.
