Fiduciary Fee-Only Independent Advisory
Our advisory and wealth management services are rooted in the relationships we share. We do not sell products, our own or those of others. Rather, we collaborate with you to develop and execute customized and strategic investment and wealth management plans.
As a fiduciary fee-only advisory boutique, our ultimate goal is your best interests and objectives. We will always act as a fiduciary when giving you advice and have intentionally chosen this single registration model that legally requires us to act in your best interest 100% of the time. While other advisors may choose models where they act as both fiduciaries and investment brokers, benefitting from the fees, commissions and compensation they receive from certain products or third-party advice they recommend for your portfolio, Baldassari Advisory’s approach completely avoids these competing interests.

The above blended rate examples demonstrate that a client with $1,000,000 in assets under management will be charged annually 1.3% of the first $500,000 plus 0.95% of the next $500,000. Thus, the blended annual fee is 1.1%.
