Financial Planning and Insurance Services

Exciting news!!!

 In August of 2008, Garrett moved his office to downtown Exeter, the city in which he and his family live.  Exeter is known for being extremely quaint and one of the nations best "painted towns".  If you have not been Exeter in a while, make it a point to visit us and experience the nostalgia of small town America at its best.  The new building is located on the corner of E and Maple Streets. Garrett has put a lot of time and effort into renovating the building and is highly pleased with the outcome.

This October, we welcome our new health insurance representative, Michael Young. He focuses in both individual and group health insurance. We are excited that he is joining our team and we believe he will be a tremendous asset to our clients. Find out more...
