Jeff Barnett is a brilliant, analytical thinker with much to offer in addition to his great expertise in investing and financial planning. We rely on Jeff as a trusted advisor regarding our financial future including various recommendations or thoughts about important decisions somewhat beyond investing and financial planning. One meeting with Jeff and you will recognize all of the above coupled with his absolute integrity and humility. I cannot more highly recommend Jeff Barnett and Fintegrity.Posted on Google Christian PetersenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jeff has been our financial advisor for over three years. He is a highly responsive, reliable, and trustworthy financial partner. He consistently demonstrates market expertise and the utmost professionalism. We have benefited from his sound advice and investment decisions to date and feel confident in his skills and, equally importantly, his integrity to steward our investments for our future.Posted on Google William OndoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jeffrey Barnrtt has made me happy Iwas his first client he is very trustworthy I highly recommend him.Posted on Google Jessica EmusTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was looking for a financial advisor who could advise me on an appropriate asset allocation based on my risk profile, age and retirement goals. Jeff was recommended to me by a friend and when we met, Jeff ticked all the boxes for me. He is responsive to all of my questions and his fee structure is reasonable and transparent. I rest easy knowing that my financial planning is in the hands of a trustworthy and talented professional.Posted on Google Carl KirschnerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have always known Jeff to be outstanding as a financial advisor. He knows the relevant information and what is important vs what is popular. He takes the time to listen to my goals and concerns while always keeping me informed. He is a wise, trustworthy and caring professional who stands above the rest. I appreciate his values of caring and involvement in his community.Posted on Google Josh & Margaret WeissTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jeff and I worked together a number of years ago when we were both at TIAA Asset Management. After we left, I heard that he had started Fintegrity. My wife and I wanted to hire a financial advisor, and once we met with Jeff we both knew he was the right choice. Since signing on with Fintegrity, we have found Jeff to be incredibly responsive, even to my sometimes middle-of-the-night inquiries. He's smart and knowledgeable. But most importantly, he has been a calming voice during this current market volatility, which is really the reason we wanted to hire him. Where I might have (probably would have) panicked and sold, Jeff has a steady hand and a calm approach. We have recommended Jeff to two of our close friends, and we will continue to refer friends and acquaintances to him.Posted on Google Jean BerkwittTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Given our age we have had several financial advisors through the years and none have helped us as much as Jeff. His ability to carefully listen to our needs and quickly respond with appropriate concrete financial strategies is impressive. His clarity of thought and ability to verbalize his thinking in ways that make sense to us is unusual. His extraordinary patience, low key demeanor and confident interaction style all combine to make him a serious and trustworthy partner in the management of our investments and the health of our financial future.Posted on Google Susan DrozdowskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

FAQ
What’s the difference between a fiduciary and a non-fiduciary financial advisor?
A fiduciary financial advisor is legally required to act in your best interest at all times, while a non-fiduciary advisor must only recommend products that are suitable for your situation—which may not necessarily be the best option for you.
How much does it cost to manage my portfolio?
Fintegrity’s Investment management fees are calculated based on the daily value of your assets under management and are billed quarterly in arrears using a tiered fee structure:
- 1.00% annually on the first $1 million
- 0.75% annually on the next $4 million
- 0.50% annually on the next $5 million
- 0.25% annually on amounts over $10 million
- For example, a $12 million portfolio would have an effective annual fee of 0.58%.
Should I use a fee-only financial advisor or one who charges commissions?
A fee-only financial advisor is typically the better choice for investors with significant assets because this structure eliminates conflicts of interest and aligns the advisor’s compensation directly with your financial success.
What is tax-loss harvesting and how much can it save me?
Tax-loss harvesting is a strategy that involves selling investments that have declined in value to realize losses, which can then offset taxable capital gains and up to $3,000 of ordinary income annually, reducing your tax bill.
When should I hire a financial advisor instead of using a robo-advisor?
You should hire a human financial advisor when your financial situation becomes complex enough that you need personalized strategic guidance, comprehensive planning across multiple financial domains, behavioral coaching during market volatility, or coordination
Why Third-Party Custody Matters
Unlike advisors who custody assets themselves, Fintegrity never takes possession of your assets. Your investments are held at Interactive Brokers—a publicly traded, SEC-regulated custodian—in accounts bearing your name. This means:
