Financial Planning & Consulting:
Our firm charges on an hourly or flat fee basis for financial planning and consulting services. The
maximum hourly fee to be charged will not exceed $300. Flat fees range from $1,000 to $10,000. Our
firm requires a retainer of 50% of the ultimate financial planning or consulting fee at the time of
signing. The total estimated fee, as well as the ultimate fee charged, is based on the scope and
complexity of our engagement with the client. $1,000 would be for a simple case with one or two
services. $10,000 would be for a complex case with multiple services. The price range is based on
the complexity of the client’s situation and the number of services to be provided. The more complex
the case (typically higher net worth clients) and more services provided, the higher the fee. The
remainder of the fee will be directly billed to the client and due within 30 days of a financial plan
being delivered or consultation rendered. The client’s invoice will include the fee charged, the
formula used to calculate the fee(s) and the time period covered by the fee(s). Our firm will not
require a retainer exceeding $1,200 when services cannot be rendered within 6 months.
Other Types of Fees & Expenses
Clients will incur transaction charges for trades executed in their accounts. These transaction fees
are separate from our firm’s advisory fees and will be disclosed by the chosen custodian. Charles
Schwab & Co., Inc., (“Charles Schwab”), does not charge transaction fees for U.S. listed equities and
exchange traded funds.
Clients may also pay charges imposed directly by a mutual fund, index fund, or exchange traded fund,
which shall be disclosed in the fund’s prospectus (i.e., fund management fees, initial or deferred sales
charges, mutual fund sales loads, 12b-1 fees, surrender charges, variable annuity fees, IRA and
ADV Part 2A – Firm Brochure Page 7 The Fauser Group, LLC
qualified retirement plan fees, and other fund expenses). Our firm does not receive a portion of these
fees.
