What are Solari Investment Advisory Services' fees?

Our compensation is not transaction-related —meaning, fees are not determined by by how many transactions you do.  Advisory fees are based on the investor's profile.  Fees also differ based on whether a one-time consultation is requested or an ongoing relationship via retainer.

One-time Consultation: This two-hour consultation is designed for investors who are experienced, well served by their current advisors, or have a specific issue and need a limited amount of time to understand how to apply our approach. Consultations are provided to individuals for a flat fee of $1,500, payable in advance. Consultation clients receive complimentary access to The Investors Collection of Solari Audio Seminars in MP3 format and to the streaming version of Catherine's "Investment Strategies for Changing Times".

Retainer Relationship: This is a traditional client relationship that is renewed for 25-week periods by mutual agreement. Send your questions to, or inquire about our fees at inquiries@solariadvisors.com. Retainer clients receive complimentary subscription to The Solari Report.

What are the differences between a one-time consultation and an ongoing relationship via retainer?

A one-time consultation is well-suited to clients who are knowledgeable but who have traditionally not had our financial "map." These clients typically require two hours of question-and-answer and may proceed with transactions via their own broker or financial service. Because a limited amount of time is involved, fees are lower. See additional benefits to Consultation clients listed above.

An ongoing relationship via retainer offers the traditional advisor / client approach with the valuable added benefit of a Solari Report subscription.
