When we first met with Scott, he gave us an easy to understand overview of all the different options that were available to us. What I liked most is that Scott took the time to understand my families needs, and consequently didn't try to push the hi-cost policies I didn't need or want (Refreshing, since every other company I talked to tried to). Rather, he gave his recommendation on reasonable policies that fit our plan, took the time to explain every detail, and he found the right company to buy them through. We will definitely be using Scott for all of our future needs.

Fantastic service!…read more We'd been searching for a financial professional for a while now and was very surprised when we could book a one-on-one free consultation with Ms. Teh the very next day. We detailed our plans to her, she gave us her professional opinion and gave us homework to do. She was pleasant, communicative and obviously knew her profession. We'll be using her in future for sure!

I have met with Christine Teh three times now. As a math teacher and professional, I have always…read morefelt a bit of shame and embarrassment about not being able to get a handle on taxes and finances. Christine was so encouraging. She took the mystery out of all the mess and gave me the confidence to take ownership of my finances. I always felt safe to ask any question, and she always answered in a way I could understand. This coaching experience has been life-changing! I cannot speak highly enough of Christine Teh and the invaluable financial guidance she has provided.

Janet and her team at Sierra Pacific Financial Advisors have been our trusted financial advisors…read morefor over 4 years now. We really appreciate having them in our corner.   Financial planning: our journey started with a few thorough and honest financial planning sessions with Glenn. He helped us put everything in perspective based on our financial goals and outlined a range of options forward for us.  Investments: Janet then turned our financial goals into investment advice. She's approachable, patient, and experienced. We definitely threw a few curve balls her way but she's able to handle everything while instilling trust in us and collaboration with us. She sets up regular meetings with us to review our investment status so we are always on the same page. When the market started to turn, she proactively reached out to review our options. Janet is also quick at answering our one-off questions over email.    Customer service: we felt appreciated by the Sierra Pacific team. During the pandemic, we were able to meet with Janet over Zoom, but when needed, we were also able to meet her in person to sign some papers with social distancing protocols in place. They also hosted a few virtual customer events to add some holiday cheer to our lives.  We are very happy that we found Janet and her team at Sierra Pacific Financial Advisors. We are going through a turbulent time right now and it is good to know that someone we trust is thinking about our financial well-being and strategizing to help us build our future.

I have been retired for almost 10 years. A year prior to retirement, financial planning wasn't a…read morepriority. Someone referred me to Insight to Wealth for a review. Overwhelming skepticism! I was thinking I could setup my own retirement plan. The more research I did, the more worried I became. I began to imagine the tremendous effort, patience and expertise required. I asked for a plan. Enter Brian S. Brian emphasized that a hedge against inflation is key in a solid retirement plan. I didn't think of that. So, he setup a diversified plan consolidating all my IRAs and 401ks using various investments vehicles. The variety provided protection against inflation, he said. 10 years later, I am living a lot more comfortably than during my working years, thanks to Brian and his team of experts!

I wholehearted recommend Palbir to anyone looking for a financial advisor to help them meet their…read morefinancial goals. My wife and I couldn't be happier with our decision to work with Palbir. We recently worked with him to get a wholistic view of our family's finances. What we enjoyed most about working with Palbir is how personable he is and how easy it is to work with him. He's also a great listener which helps him truly understand his client's situation along with their dreams and aspirations. Conversations with Palbir felt natural. He's extremely responsive to emails. It makes getting clarification on follow up questions easy. Each time we speak with Palbir, we would walk away with realistic solutions to improve our chances of reaching our financial goals. Palbir was detailed oriented and left no stone unturned when he analyzed our situation. If we were off target in certain areas, he was quick to pin down root cause and offer practical solutions to help us improve our chances for success. As a result of the adjustments we have made per Palbir's recommendations, we are already a little closer towards achieving our goals. I would give him 10 stars if I could.

I originally hired Palbir of Smart Path Wealth management to help me evaluate whether or not I…read morecould afford to buy a house in the next few years (I'm 30). After multiple discussions, he also helped me determine what I needed to do if I want to switch careers eventually and what the options are for investing with my values in mind. I am a software engineer with little extra mental energy after I leave work, so Palbir's willingness to explain every piece of his suggestions to me as well as answer all my questions was so incredibly helpful. I would recommend Palbir to anyone who wants sound financial advice, regardless of how much background they have in finances and investments. He's a good investment.
