In the movie "The Blind Side," Sandra Bullock's character, Leigh Anne Tuohy's opening narration…read moresays "Every housewife knows, the first check you write is for the mortgage, but the second is for the insurance." As a home-owner, I can say that this is true. Houses burn down, blow up, have cars launched into the living rooms from the street. You think of the catastrophe, and it's probably happening to someone's residence somewhere in the United States right now. The same can be said of your car, motorcycle, and personal being. And unless you're keeping yourself in a hermetically sealed bubble that is under the direct care and protection of God (with a written guarantee), there is a very real possibility that a catastrophe may befall you. This is why there is insurance in all its various forms. Insurance can be described in a single sentence: plan for the worst, hope for the best. You don't want your house to burn down or be flooded out, but these things can and do happen. So, unless you're either obscenely wealthy, it's best to get some insurance. As much as they are loath to admit it, Insurance Brokers are salespeople that in most cases are no different than, say, a car dealer. Their job is to get you to buy the maximum amount for the highest price. This is their job, and why they are hired by their respective agencies. But let me make this clear, not all insurance brokers are like this. Many want to help you get the exact coverage you need at an affordable price that won't evaporate in a fine-print, non-coverage clause that ends up paying out a laugh and a fart for all the money you put in. Mark Neilebeck, I'm happy to say, is one such agent. When we bought our first house a year ago, we realized that we would need insurance. After shopping around, we talked to Mark. Rather than do the song-and-dance that the others had done, Mark sat down with us, and worked with us, step-by-step, in first determining what type of insurance we would need, why it was needed (surprisingly dissuading some options that turned out were completely unnecessary), and within our budget. Sure, many people will say (especially those in the insurance racket), "That's what I/my person does!" That may be so. But honestly, how many people would invite their insurance broker to a birthday party, out to dinner, or to an intimate family event such as a Christening? I imagine that the number of agents takes a steep dive after that. Mark, though, is that kind of guy. He's the kind of agent that goes above and beyond just being a mere insurance broker and into the realm of being a friend who does give a rat's ass about your well-being. But most importantly, Mr. Mark Neilebeck is the kind of agent that you can and will recommend to friends and family without hesitation.

We can't express how pleased and happy we were to find TVFP. Jonathan Belnap and Dillan Egbert provide services, above and beyond your normal financial institution such as, free initial consultations, breakdown of their fees upfront on their website, detail oriented review after each meeting, and guiding us along every step of the way with great transparency. You don't feel like "just another client" or "number" they get to know you and you get to know them adding that trusted relationship you don't get with most banks/advisors. In fact, they didn't start with the idea that they would "tell" us how to invest our money, but rather had the conversation of what do we want to see, discussed how they would make our money work for us in more detail, and they even put into action an investment of our request. We can't say enough how well they have managed our money creating yearly buckets, helping us reach our retirement goals and fun goals! We can call or reach out to them anytime with questions and we are comforted that they understand our goals and market timing to keep us stress free financially.

Michael brings a "partnership mindset" to these conversations: giving me the "bottom line" information I need, but also patiently helping to educate me on the broader State and Federal tax codes and ramifications. Beyond his expertise and knowledge, what I appreciate most about Michael is his integrity, attention to detail, and his availability.
