About Us

When you think about wealth management, what comes to mind?  We define wealth management broadly – investment consulting, advanced planning, and relationship management.  We have helped clients make decisions about elder care, organize their assets and understand their finances, and hold family meetings to clarify financial positions and structure gifting strategies.  By incorporating corporate stock, 401k plans, and assets held with other firms, we are able to help clients develop comprehensive asset allocation and cash flow strategies as well as retirement, education, and insurance plans.  We work directly with clients and their other advisors to develop and monitor a cohesive wealth management approach.

At the Eleven Twenty Seven Group, we believe our clients are not portfolios of assets – they are people with complex lives, who would like a financial advisor to provide thorough, unbiased and carefully considered guidance on a range of topics.  Our clients are investors - not traders - and believe that protecting a portfolio during difficult markets is equally as important as growing it during strong markets.

Our mission is to help clients make some of life's most critical choices, decisions appropriate for where they are - and where they want to go.  Our message is not always popular, and never trendy.  We focus on what is prudent and logical for the specific individual or couple seeking our advice.  We work hard each day to help clients make decisions with which they can maintain their lifestyles for years to come.

Helping Our Clients Achieve Their Goals

Our mission as a team is to help clients make some of life's most critical choices, decisions appropriate for where they are- and where they want to go. We focus on what is prudent and logical for the specific individual, couple or family seeking our advice.
    Icon Image
    Setting a Confident Course
    Thorough, thoughtful planning - planning that analyzes your current situation as well as your future objective - is the most critical step in establishing a path to your goals. There is no "one size fits all" philosophy; the planning process and our recommendations are for you and your family, and no one else.
    Icon Image
    Managing the Rewards of Success
    Managing an investment portfolio should be a consultative, disciplined process that balances your attitudes and goals as an investor with careful analysis of the financial markets and the risks and opportunities they hold for you. You can rely on us for objective, strategic advice in structuring (or re-structuring) your portfolio, and for careful analysis of any investments we consider together: asset allocation, investment management, traditional investments, alternative investments, structured investments, and separately managed accounts.
    Icon Image
    Protecting Your Wealth
    Insurance can play a critical role in virtually any comprehensive financial strategy, helping you protect the value of your assets, your income and your family's financial security - even perform important functions in a business succession or estate plan. We will help you analyze your current insurance portfolio and work to update your coverage to fulfill personal and strategic goals.
    Icon Image
    Shaping Your Retirement
    Together we will work to make decisions that could help you move towards the retirement you expect. Whether you are building retirement wealth or making the transition to income generation from your assets, we will help develop and implement a strategy based on your unique vision for retirement.
    Icon Image
    Educating New Generations
    For some clients, helping to meet the education costs of children and grand-children may be one of the most attractive and personally fulfilling opportunities. We will help you consider your options: custodial accounts, 529 plans, minor's trusts and bond ladders.
    Icon Image
    Building Your Legacy
    Estate planning typically brings together the dimensions of life: personal, family, financial and charitable. We will work with you, your tax advisor, and your attorney to understand the connections between your life and legacy goals to help you develop a strategy to position your portfolio appropriately.
    Icon Image
    Giving Back through Philanthropy
    Many successful individuals seek opportunities to support cultural, educational, and nonprofit organizations and activities. Properly undertaken, charitable giving can provide planning flexibility and benefits for you and your loved ones. We will help you analyze and implement a strategy that rewards you while supporting the causes you care about.
