“We received a flyer in the mail, and we were already with another company, but I didn’t feel real comfortable every time we went in for our financial meeting with our advisor. So when we got this mailer, it was like, “Let’s go try them; let’s see how we feel.” And we felt warm and comfortable right from the get-go… it wasn’t about them, it was really about us.”*

FAQ

Where Do I Begin?

Our first step is an initial inquiry. Using our “Contact Us” page, you can file any questions you might have and send them straight to our team. After we receive your requests, we’ll discuss your financial needs and how we can assist you.

Why Choose an Independent Financial Advisor?

With an SFAM Independent Financial Advisor, you’ll get all the professionalism of a typical full-service advisor without high-pressure sales tactics. This allows you to get personalized advice and services that are personalized to your needs.

Are you a Fee-Only or Fee-Based Advisor?

Fee-only financial planning means the advisor is compensated solely by the client. Other financial professionals may receive a commission if they recommend a specific investment, mutual fund, or insurance product. At Security First, we prioritize your best interests by offering both fee-based and commission-based solutions. This means we have the flexibility to recommend the approach that works best for you.
