Our Services:
Independent Financial Service is just like any investment and insurance shop you will come across - we offers a broad range of services, products and plans to meet the diverse needs of our clients. But truth be told - products are pretty much the same no matter who you buy them thru.
Brian Schmidt and Scott Calcutt are both mutual fund and life insurance licensed - so this means we have access to a ton of products from a long list of investment companies, banks, and insurance companies. Way too many to mention them all. What makes us different?
Think of financial products and services like an old fashioned "General Store". Everything we have is up on the shelves behind the counter. There are lots of products back there - insurance products, investment products, bank accounts, planning services, tax advise, mortgages, debt products, etc.... Which is right for you?
Once we have discussed and determined what product or service is right for you - based on your Financial Planning needs - we take it off the shelf and offer it to you. If you decide this product fits your needs and you buy it from us, we will get paid a commission. But you will know that this product or service was not "sold to you". You will know that we took the time to show you how this product or service is really just the implimentation of your Financial Plan.
What's that you say? You don't have a Financial Plan - and just a collection of investments, debts, insurance plans, pensions, etc???
