Retirement Income Planning


You’ve saved a nest egg for retirement, but are unsure how to set-up a sustainable income stream from the assets.

NorthStar will work with you to establish a retirement plan that blends your income sources (Social Security, pension, rental income, etc.) and investment assets into a cash-flow plan. User-friendly financial planning tools are used in writing the plan. Through on-going communication, your plan is updated and adjustments are made.






Portfolio Management



Is your portfolio the right fit? Proper balance of risk and reward? Fees too high? 


NorthStar will build a portfolio tailored according to your investments goals and level of comfort. Portfolios of stocks, bonds, and exchange traded finds (ETFs) are used to help manage costs and  taxes.


Why Us?


NorthStar acts as a fiduciary--your best interests drive the process. Not ours.


Some financial advisors recommend investment products with high commissions and internal expenses that are good for the financial advisor, but less beneficial for the client. NorthStar is a fee only Investment Advisory Firm. Your interests drive the process.

NorthStar is committed to keeping fees low and hidden fees out of the equation.
