Two Bird Wealth Strategies - Ann Arbor (MI)

5 /5 Claire Stewart: When I used to think of financial planning, I pictured someone in a suit telling me where to put my stocks. But meeting with Matt Bowden at 2 Bird Wealth Management completely changed that perception. Matt is not only incredibly knowledgeable and professional—he’s also a fellow parent who genuinely cares about helping families build real financial freedom. In our first meeting, he spent nearly three hours with us, taking the time to understand our short-, mid-, and long-term goals. He helped us see that financial planning is so much more than just retirement—its about creating a plan that supports the life we want to live now and in the future. Matt is kind, patient, and never once made us feel rushed or overwhelmed. We left that first meeting feeling empowered, informed, and excited to start this journey. We’re so grateful to have found him and are really looking forward to working together!

5 /5 Nikki Calloway: So grateful for the advice and guidance from Two Bird Wealth Strategies and Matt Bowden. After years of searching for a financial planner that was interested in listening to our goals and needs, my husband and I finally found what we were looking for in Matt. He is bright, caring, and a great listener. He is incredibly knowledgeable and willing to research any financial questions we have. Not only were we blessed to find a great experience working with Matt and the Two Bird team, years later, I found a unique career opportunity helping Two Bird Wealth with their leadership and organizational needs. After seeing firsthand Two Bird’s vision of caring for and servicing its clients, it’s easy to see how Matt along with the founder and staff have built nurturing relationships with their clients. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Adam Finch, Matt Bowden, and Phil Hollander to walk others through the process.

5 /5 Adam Diehl: Our adviser is very knowledgable and responsive to queries. His analysis of our financial situation and retirement savings was very thorough, and he developed a plan that makes sense for our specific situation. Communications are great and I appreciate the weekly newsletters that cover current conditions and issues in the financial world. They provide both current information and historical trends to place them in context and help interpret their likely meanings in practical terms. This has helped increase my comfort in their management of my retirement portfolio, as well as improving my confidence as an investor.

5 /5 The Art Jar: I’ve done personal business with most of the Two Bird staff and have known Matt Bowden 17 years. Besides enjoying their company personally and professionally, I trust and highly recommend them with your financial futures. #RoRecs

5 /5 Travis Otto: I switched over from a previous financial planner because I wanted a more personalized approach to my investing. I didn’t think I was unhappy where I was at, I just wanted a more attentive approach to my retirement plan. It was a hard choice to make because I had grown to like my previous financial planner. Since moving over and hearing the ideas that Matt had for our investment plan, and hearing his thoughts on mitigating taxes upon retirement and our deaths, we realized how much better it can be than what we previously had. Our investments have been doing fantastic. My wife retired this year and I plan to follow next year. We are retiring way ahead of all of our friends and peers, partially due to our diligent saving and a lot to do with the plan that our advisor came up with for us. We couldn’t be happier and truly appreciate everything they have done. I recommend them to everyone who asks because I truly believe that they think outside the box and are fantastic at what they do.
