Foothills Financial Planning Adds Scottsdale Office

Sept. 13, 2010 - PRLog -- Foothills Financial Planning (FFP), an Ahwatukee-based fee-only financial planning firm, is now meeting clients in its new Scottsdale location.  The Scottsdale office is centrally located within the Valley at 3337 N. Miller Road on the southeast corner of Miller Road and Osborn Road.

Foothills Financial Planning is a fee-only advisor and a fiduciary.  Unlike most financial advisors, a fiduciary has a legal responsibility to act in the customer’s best interest, and does not receive compensation from anyone except the customer. Advice is provided on an “as needed” basis, and can range from a couple of hours working on a specific issue to a full financial plan or ongoing investment management.  Customers of FFP receive independent, objective financial advice from an advisor whose interests are aligned with theirs.  

FFP added the Scottsdale location to make the financial planning process more convenient for customers.  “We’ve found that about half of our Arizona-based customers are closer to the Scottsdale location than our primary office in Ahwatukee, and we simply wanted to make it easier for them to get objective financial planning help.” said Kevin O’Reilly, principal of FFP.  The company offers a free get-acquainted meeting to explore customers’ needs and map out a plan for a solid financial future. Call (480) 445-9072  or visit www.foothillsplanning.com to find out more.

Foothills Financial Planning is a member of the Garrett Planning Network, a national network of fee-only advisors.  Garrett has been profiled in BusinessWeek, The Wall Street Journal, SmartMoney, The New York Times, Money, Financial Planning magazine, and numerous other consumer publications as "the new choice for smart consumers."
