Firm profile
FINTRXOverview
Elser Financial Planning, Inc. is an independent, SEC-registered RIA organized as a corporation and owned by an individual. Registered in 2015, the firm serves both individual and family clients as well as institutional relationships, focusing on financial planning and portfolio management for individuals and small businesses. Its fee arrangements include a percentage of assets under management, hourly billing and fixed fees rather than commission-based compensation. The firm does not identify as an active ESG investor and is not registered as a multi-state adviser. Elser does not act as a capital allocator running its own third‑party funds; instead it uses outside managers and traditional investment vehicles. The firm has been recognized in the trade press, appearing on FA Magazine’s Top RIA Firms list in 2020 and on Citywire’s 50 Growers Across America list in 2023.
