Brooke & Schafer, LLC offers experience you can trust. We have been advising individuals and small business owners since 1978. We create retirement plans, offer customized financial advice, and manage portfolios for a relatively small, but highly valued, list of clients. Our fee-based business model is designed with the best interests of our clients in mind. While we will never be a Wall Street giant, our business has access to financial industry leaders that allow our clients to benefit from the full spectrum of financial products found in today’s complex marketplace. In fact, it is the size of our firm which enables Brooke & Schafer to offer unbiased customized financial solutions while maintaining the personal face-to-face service our clients deserve.
Our mission is to enhance our clients’ financial situations as an independent, team-oriented financial advisory firm specializing in custom, client-based solutions.
