Renaissance Financial Group - Ann Arbor (MI)

Yolanda Ludington Ive been a client of Zhang Financial for many years. I have received better than benchmark returns with the lowest fee structure while staying in line with my overall financial needs. Long before I ever knew Charles and Lynn Zhang, I had dealt with financial firms and banks in the metro Detroit area to handle my irrevocable trust and revocable trust. None have ever provided the level of all-round exceptional service that Im receiving with Zhang Financial. My portfolio is routinely reviewed and refreshed. Any life changes, tax issues or legal trust issues that concern me are addressed. They house a talented team that proficiently handles all my account requirements. My needs are always the first priority. Zhang is a Fee-Only firm, meaning that the only fees taken are a percentage of your assets. Thats what you should look for in a financial firm. Fee-Only firms are not the same as Fee-Based firms. Fee-Based firms can take a percentage of your money and are also allowed to get kickbacks from funds they put you in. A major conflict of interest. Ive always been a stickler on fees, whether upfront fees or internal fund fees. Zhang provided me the lowest fees in both areas while best addressing my financial goals. One of the things that first impressed me when speaking to Charles was his ability to meticulously choose funds that run the lowest internal fees with the highest performance on returns. Throughout the years they have earned my respect and admiration. I have complete trust in them. Zhang Financial is the epitome of what a financial firm should be. Barrons and other reputable sources have made no mistake in putting Zhang Financial at the top of their list!

Shannon B I am planning for my teen’s college years and wanted to find a company who can provide advice and financial knowledge. Working with both Angelina and Paul has been a positive experience. Angelina’s quick responses to my questions, help with the FAFSA forms, and also breaking down the college financial page from each college has been a tremendous help. The meetings with Paul have been eye-opening and helpful and planning for the college future. I would definitely recommend Bridgewise to other families with questions about college finances.

Christina Fuhrmann I have had mixed experiences so far. I had to call both the dealership and them a few times just to be able to start payments on my car. Good thing I did, because the payment was due in a matter of days by the time I figured out how to get into my account. Had I waited for them to contact me, I would have been late on my payment. However, the person I spoke with was extremely polite and pleasant and the website is working great now. Very easy to use.

Laura Ozuna My experience with MainStreet Financial has been completely positive. Joe, Nancy, and the rest of the staff have taken a lot of time to explain options to me as I have begun my retirement. They have done well to navigate the difficult financial situations we currently face and remind me when I need to take action on my accounts. Highly recommended.

Kathryn Westcott Great people to work with. They have made our retirement so easy. They take the time to explain things so we see our plan
