We are Cedar.

One team being financially creative for you.

We are a fee-based independent investment advisory firm, which means that we do not provide any proprietary products. We recommend investment products to our clients based on the needs of the client and not based on potential commissions to be generated. In our capacity as a fiduciary, we always have your best interest at heart. We will work with you to identify your goals, and then we will create the best financial plan to achieve those goals.

Why Us?

Independent, Fee-Based

Our firm is independent of large banks or brokerage firms allowing for independent advice built on education, experience, and knowledge. Our fee is based on your growth and disclosed up front both clear and transparent.

Comprehensive

In helping clients grow, preserve and transfer wealth, we tend to the details without ever losing sight of the big picture. Our consultative approach creates blueprints that our clients can use to rally all their professional advisors to pursue comprehensive, agreed-upon goals.

Fiduciary

We are compensated only by our clients never products. As a fiduciary, we are held to the highest legal standard (duty of care) in financial services which requires our advice and recommendations to always be in your best interest.

Client-First Philosophy

Our firm was built for and around our clients. We believe an open and transparent, client-centered relationship is the key to long-term success. Our thorough wealth planning process is driven by listening first, formulating a strategy, and following through with advice and world-class service.

Our Process

Our proven process helps us get to know you - your passions, goals, needs and wants. 

  • Introduction

    From the moment you schedule a consultation, we go to work for you – connecting you with an advisor suited to handle your unique needs. 

  • Are We a Fit?

    It’s important for you and a financial advisor to get to know one another before working together. Whether you’re determining your vision for retirement, looking to finalize your estate plan or planning to retire soon, we will help you discover where your life and financial goals intersect.
  • Data Gathering

    We take a holistic approach to wealth planning by understanding your life goals and risk tolerance. In order to build a wealth plan that’ll set you on the path toward your goals, we take a comprehensive look at your life and finances.
  • Proposal

    After understanding every financial and non-financial asset in your life, we create a personalized wealth plan – a plan that’ll serve as the road map toward your goals.
  • Implementation

    We aren’t a “set it and forget it” firm. We set your wealth plan in action, then consistently monitor your plan and keep in touch with you. We’ll make any needed updates to reflect any major life changes or market factors.

FAQ

What is an independent financial advisor?
Independent Registered Investment Advisers are professional independent advisory firms that provide personalized financial advice to their clients, many of whom have complex financial needs. Because these advisors are independent, they are not tied to any particular family of funds or investment products. As fiduciaries, they are held to the highest standard of care—and are required to act in the best interests of their clients at all times. They are registered with either the Securities and Exchange Commission or state securities regulators.
What does being a Fiduciary mean?
A fiduciary is a professional entrusted to manage assets or wealth while putting the client’s best interests first at all times. Financial advisors who follow a fiduciary standard must disclose any conflict, or potential conflict, to their clients prior to and throughout the advisory engagement. Fiduciaries will also adopt a code of ethics and will fully disclose how they are compensated.
What separates us from other financial advisors?

A combination of independence, comprehensive service, and client focus sets us apart. As an independent Registered Investment Advisor, we provide advice for each client’s specific situation and needs without concerning ourselves with the agenda of a parent company. Our services range from financial planning to investment management to estate planning—we can meet a wide range of needs under one roof. Finally, we are oriented toward providing each client the attention and service they deserve. We treat our clients as individuals and not numbers.

Where is my money kept?
In our advisory role, we never take custody of client assets. We utilize Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. as the custodian of client accounts and as our primary broker. Our relationship with Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. is an arm’s length transaction with no exchange of funds between Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. and us. When your account is established with Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., you provide us with limited trading authorization on your account. This authority allows us to process trades directly in client accounts.
