One-Up Financial

One-Up Financial is an independent financial advisory firm in Erie that works mainly with sales executives, small business owners and retirees. Its team holds CPA and CFP credentials, so tax planning and investment management are handled together. Services include retirement planning, investment management, tax strategies and estate planning, along with fiduciary services for 401(k) plans and endowments.

Clients can choose between two packages. WealthBuilder is a retirement planning package with quarterly meetings and a flat fee of $1,000 to $2,500 per quarter. WealthManager adds ongoing investment management and tax planning for an annual fee starting at 1% of assets under management. The firm says it is commission-free and charges no hidden fees, and individual tax returns are prepared through a CPA partner network.
