Fee-Only Financial Advisor
Sparrow Wealth Management operates as a fee-only financial advisor because we believe there is a significant conflict of interest if an advisor stands to gain personally from any action recommended to the client. Unlike commission and fee-based advisors, fee-only financial planners are compensated solely by client fees and do not accept commissions or compensation from any other source. Sparrow Wealth Management has been certified by NAPFA as a fee-only advisor since 2001.

The CFP® certification has become the recognized standard of excellence for personal financial planning. Attaining CFP® certification is a highly respected professional achievement for those who work within the financial services industry. Working with Sparrow Wealth Management means you are working with the best in the industry. For more information about the Certified Financial PlannerTM certification, visit www.cfp.net.
