What Do We Charge?
Annual Financial Planning Fee Structure
Portfolio size refers to all accounts over which Capital Area Planning Group, LLC has discretion. These typically include brokerage accounts, trusts, IRAs, small company 401(k)s, and 529s.
Our services are best suited for those with investible assets of at least $1,000,000.
Fee tiers are applied proactively. For example, a household that starts at $800,000 and grows to $1,000,000 will receive and lock in the lower fee once the threshold is crossed.

Example: $100,000 x 0.50% = $500
A financial planning client who wishes to also have us manage their $100,000 IRA would see an asset management fee of $125 billed to their account quarterly.
