History of Eastown Financial....
The concept of Eastown Financial
was developed sitting on a sandy beach somewhere
near Bitely, Michigan. It was on a family
vacation in August of 2000 that we ( Janet:
the mother-in-law and Andy: the son-in-law),
decided to start a business together. We shared
a common commitment and perspective on our
role as financial advisors: Everyone is in
need of financial planning, no matter what
their income or net worth. We started our
company on that basis and continue to work
in that vein to this day. We don’t require
that you have a certain amount of money before
we will work with you. Our focus is on educating
our clients and developing strategies that
will achieve their financial goals.
In the fall of 2000 we leased an office
in the East Building, located in the Eastown
Business District in Grand Rapids. We have
enjoyed tremendous success here due to our
many loyal clients. We consider it a privilege
to work with our clients and look forward
to doing so in the years to come.
