Vista Process Planning Steps

Basecamp - Establishing Your Foundation
We begin with discovery. We clarify your goals, values, resources, and concerns. This is where we take inventory of where you are and what matters most.

Trail Map — Designing Your Strategy
We build your personalized retirement income, tax reduction, investment, and estate strategies. This becomes your financial roadmap — built to align with your goals and protect against future detours.

Compass Check — Ongoing Planning Reviews
Through quarterly check-ins and as-needed adjustments, we review your progress and keep your plan aligned with your values and life changes. This ensures you always know where you stand.

Legacy Lookout — Securing Your Impact
Together we help solidify your legacy. We coordinate trust funding, long-term care strategies, and family planning to ensure your impact lasts beyond the trail.
