The mission of our wealth management firm is to offer comprehensive, holistic financial advice to affluent families. We are a leading wealth manager in the San Francisco Bay Area, offering personalized advice and thoughtful financial planning governed by our ethical and fiduciary obligations to our clients.
What Is Comprehensive Wealth Management?
Wealth management offers clients comprehensive services that can include:
- Investment management
- Financial advice
- Tax guidance
- Estate planning
- Family legacy planning
- Retirement planning
- Charitable giving planning
A wealth manager must coordinate a team of experienced experts to deliver the full range of services required to meet the needs of affluent individuals. As needed, a wealth manager works with attorneys, accountants, and other professionals on your behalf.
A wealth manager should employ strategies that reflect each client’s financial goals and risk tolerance. Any financial plan that a wealth manager formulates should incorporate all the relevant parts of a client’s life. First and foremost, a wealth manager must act in the client’s best interests when offering personalized financial advice.
At Fairview Capital our mission statement speaks to our ethical commitment to act as fiduciaries for our clients, free of any hidden agendas.

Who Do We Serve? Here are some illustrative “clients” and what they were seeking when they came to us. If you identify with any of them or their needs, we’d love to talk with you.
Many of our clients are single women, widows or divorcees, who were initially overwhelmed making decisions about the assets in their portfolios after a life changing event. They came to us looking for guidance on whether or not to sell their home, how to manage current financial assets and how to set up a retirement plan. Often a close family member was supporting them, usually an adult child, and they wanted them to be part of the process from the start.
Another set of clients came to us in their 60’s, approaching retirement. After many years working in professional careers, they didn’t want to outlive their retirement savings, wanted to transfer assets to their children without tax consequences and were looking for guidance on current investments. They needed advice about their long term goals. They wanted to work with an advisor willing to collaborate with their CPA and attorney as well as bring their adult children into the relationship with Fairview as they aged.
We also serve many younger high net worth professionals (doctors, lawyers, business owners) who were looking for near term help managing their cash flow, maintaining their lifestyle and financing their children’s education before they came to Fairview. They wanted to manage the sizable income they were currently earning and the higher tax implications from their increased wealth. Lastly, they wanted to retire early to enjoy the benefits of many years of hard work, so retirement planning was an essential component.
Other clients include young families approaching substantial wealth who are seeking financial advice as they grow their assets. Before working with Fairview, they had never worked with a financial advisor, but were so busy with their jobs and young children that they didn’t have time nor interest in following the market. Establishing a trusted relationship with a firm with a proven track record in long term financial planning that offered a transparent fee structure were key to their decision to select Fairview.
