About Us

Have you ever sat across the desk from your financial consultant wondering about his or her objectivity in giving you investment advice? We've all been there; heard the pitch for mutual fund A, or Annuity B, all the time wondering whose interest is really being served. At Mavy Investment Strategies we take a different approach.

Mavy Investments is a Fee-Only firm, offering objective investment advice and skilled asset management. We are located in the Auburn California area and serve clients throughout California.

Mavy Investment Strategies was founded on the idea that investment clients are not being well served by the brokerage industry. Investors have grown tired of excessive sales charges, undisclosed commissions, and never-ending fees. The founder of Mavy Investment Strategies believes that investors are best served by objective and expert advice and competitive rates. A critical part of that equation is missing at most brokerage firms when fees are kept hidden or at best less than transparent.

Mr. Mavy invested in his first mutual fund before entering college. He had scouted the different brokers in the Auburn, California area and what he found was salesman after salesman. He tried to find a good broker because he knew very little about investing, but what he found surprised him. Brokers are not the investment professionals he assumed them to be, rather they were more simply slick salesmen.

Having that bad taste of dissappointment in his mouth, Mr. Mavy invested in a mutual fund he found on his own with no help from a broker. It was a fine investment, in fact a great investment compared to what the brokers were selling.

A somewhat entertaining portion of the experience was the coincidence that each of the brokers attempted to sell funds from the same company. Was it coincidence? A year after visiting these different brokers, the fund company that had been suggested was the subject of steep fines and disciplinary action for the kick-backs it was giving to brokers.

At Mavy Investment Strategies today, we proudly boast of the exceptional value we offer our clients. Our client-first philosophy is more than lip service. No quotas, no sales gimmicks, no commissions. Unbiased and educated advice, professional guidance you can trust, and the attention you deserve. That's what we're about.

Thank you to all of our clients who have entrusted us with their investments, retained us for our advice, and given us the wonderful votes of confidence of their referrals.

Sincerely,

Mavy Investment Strategies

Don't let RMD's catch you by surprise.
Don't get caught in the RMD trap. If you don't take your Required Minimum Distribution from your retirement account after age 70½, the IRS will take HALF of what you should have taken out.

Which Account Should I Spend First?
If I withdraw from my qualified retirement account I lose the tax-defferal on all of the growth; but if I make withdrawals from my non-qualified account, I will incur capital gains. What should I do?

Stocks or Bonds?
What is best for my situation? I don't need the money until I retire, and I want it to grow. It's my retirment, so I can't afford to lose it.
