Since taking over my accounts, I have tried contacting Conner a multitude of times to have him via phone and email, and communication has been minimal. The two times I have heard from him were a result of me contacting the previous financial advisor who left the firm to get a hold of him for me. Unfortunately, I have heard from several other clients who are in a similar boat who have had little to no luck getting a hold of Conner for assistance with their accounts. If you are thinking about opening up an account with Harbor Hills, I would not recommend it.

Working within the framework of Edward Jones accounts, she finds ways to make money, save expenses, and provide income. We went to her for in-retirement guidance, and she has handled our IRA and 401(k) transfers with great care and precision. She also has an excellent combination of personal qualities: friendliness, flexibility, and the ability to work collaboratively. My wife and I interviewed several other financial advisors before we met her, and we liked her a lot more than the others immediately. We typically leave our meetings with her saying, "Wow! That was great." She is and has been a delight, AND she has been readily accessible and responsive.

Looking for a local company to do my taxes I chose Anita Peca at Walpole. She was apparently busy…read morein March so filed for an extension with the IRS for me. It's now June and I hadn't even heard from her, so I went this morning and picked up my paper work and will find another tax person. She gave me a bill for $375. Filing an extension is free, and I had 3 short conversations with her on the phone, yielding no useful information other then her emphasizing the base fee was $1200. and advising me to call the IRS with my questions - which I did. She was useless. I"ve never been late with taxes until connecting with this firm. I guess I'm 'small potatoes" and their bigger clients come first.

I'd like to give my review in support of Anita Peca and the Walpole Company in Santa Barbara…read more My husband and I started our association with them in 1983, upon the recommendation of my father. Marvin Walpole was his tax advisor and was recommended to us. We were with him, then a few other associates, until we were lucky enough to meet Anita and she took over our tax preparation. We've been helped by Anita Peca for at least 20 years, and we wouldn't want anyone else to do our taxes. She is so knowledgeable about all tax requirements and keeps up with the ever changing rules and regulations! She helped us set up a LLC with my sister and she does those taxes for us too. She and the business associates in Walpole work together on those taxes and have been since 2015. We moved to Nevada 6 years ago, and guess what? We refused to change to a tax company up here, when we have Anita and the whole Walpole company to take care of our taxes!! We are not "big cheeses", just ordinary folks, but we've been taken care of very competently by Anita and the rest of Walpole & Company. It is no surprise that Anita and the rest are so busy at tax time-they are the best and no one wants to use anyone else!! Sincerely, Bonnie R

My bank advisor and I both spoke to Will on the phone, and we both agreed Will was knowledgeable, professional and very patient with our questions.
