EXCELLENT Based on 19 reviews Posted on Google Mary AndonianTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I attended one of Joe Donti’s (SOLUTIONS FIRST) seminars last Spring. When you move to Arizona, somehow you end up on a mailing for free steak dinners. It’s usually in exchange for a 90-minute financial presentation (or estate planning, etc.). We are within striking distance of retirement so we made the rounds. (By the way, the folks in the industry have a name for the guests who go to these events just for the meal…they’re called PLATE LICKERS…don’t be one of those! Actually go to learn! LOL.) We probably went to five of these events before we landed on Joe Donti’s group. How refreshing! Joe went through the basics, but also touched on ways we could protect our money that we had never considered. After his presentation, our group was left to enjoy our meal. They were the only company that completely cleared the restaurant afterward: no glad-handing, no answering questions, simply GONE. My husband thought it was odd, but I was intrigued. Clearly they were not desperate for clients and only wanted the ones who were truly interested in what they had to offer. We learned this in our follow up meeting with Joe. Not only were we selective in who we were choosing to trust our life savings with, but HE was selective as well. (And it didn’t come down to the size of one’s portfolio. It was a mutual interview process that also took into account personalities and communication styles, etc.) I liked Joe from the start: the guy was a walking financial encyclopedia, yet communicated his approach in laymen’s terms that we could easily understand. Financial consulting is clearly this guy’s life calling. But before we made any big decisions, we went back to our money advisor (at a large financial institution) and asked her about some of his recommended methodologies. She was aware of these tools, but couldn’t use them because she was limited to what her company had to offer. But she validated their legitimacy. We decided to pull the trigger and move over to Solutions First. They have been exceptional in their execution so far. I am extremely happy with their diversification strategy and will provide an update if my feelings change. This is a crazy, volatile market, and the last thing you want to do is be stressed about your life savings. If you want to find ways to reduce your risk, yet expand your reach into high earning vehicles, I recommend you consider Joe Donti’s team at Solutions First.Posted on Google Gg DragonflyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been associated with Joe and Patti for more than a decade. Their expertise in all aspects of investments is beyond compare. Prior to meeting with them, I had retirement funds that were scattered in different products. Frankly, it kept me up at night wondering if I’d be able to have a successful retirement. Since placing my retirement in their capable hands, I have been able to rest assured that I made the right decision. I’m more than pleased with the outcome of my investments. If you are searching for investment solutions, you owe it to yourself to contact Solutions First Financial Group. Joe, Patti and their team of professionals have the integrity, knowledge and character to put you on the right path.Posted on Google Lori goldblattTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joe and Patty and the rest of this staff are amazing people! They are so kind, helpful and full of knowledge and experience in what they do. Every time I talk with Joe or Patty they always ask how I am doing and how my family is. They genuinely care. Joe always has my best interest at heart. I am so thankful I met Joe and Patty and the rest of the Solutions First Financial Group! I am genuinely happy with my investments.Posted on Google Joyce Marcarelli (Marca-Relli Prod.)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Both my husband and I have known Joe for 8 years. He is our financial advisor for several investments. Joe and his staff are very helpful and detailed. We highly recommend using his services!Posted on Google Steve RenonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been associated with Solutions First Financial Group and Joe Donti for five years. In that time, Joe, Patty, and the staff have demonstrated competency and integrity. All professions have their share of egomaniacs, incompetents and b.s. artists; especially the investment/financial field. Joe Donti represents the best in his profession. He is knowledgeable and takes personal involvement in each client's individual goals. Further, he makes the extra effort to ensure that each situation is resolved in the client's best interest. While his ability to make the complicated understandable, makes life easier. I would endorse this man's character and expertise to anyone. S.

Look no further for the most professional and accurate financial advice. Joe is the most knowledgeable advisor I've ever spoken to, he has a great variety of products that are will meet needs of people of various income and financial goals. My mother has been with Joe for over decade, and he is the only one she trusts with her money. Highly recommend!Posted on Google MARGIE SAVAGETrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Everyone in the office is friendly + down to earth. Joe Donti was very informative + brought to my attention some information that I had heard years ago + forgotten but was very beneficial to me now.Posted on Google Ken BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My meeting with Joe, was a great experience. I appreciated his time and non pressure and educational approach. He took the time to explain various items to consider when planning for retirement. From which products to use to meet those goals. Also, shared other investment products to help avoid taxes and different types of account registration which might help with legacy planning. He discussed the importance of looking at how one’s taxable income would impact federal and state taxes and also Medicare benefits. I would recommend meeting with Joe to see if he might be able to share is knowledge to help meet your investment goals.Posted on Google TCTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Changing financial advisors is not an easy decision to make. Once we selected Joe and SFFG we immediately felt good about our decision to switch. He is engaged in all aspects of our finances and takes time to educate us continuously with facts and data so that we can make informed decisions. We are glad we switched and strongly recommend others consider Joe and SFFG!Posted on Google John StangaroneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I attended a seminar with Joe Donti in 2009 after uncertainty due to a lay off and needed a home for my 401K work investment. I realized that Joe presented numerous options that I wasn't presented with other financial planners. After setting up a personal meeting regarding my situation Joe presented me with a perfect solution to investing my nest egg in a safe, no risk investment. Thank you Joe and your staff. They are always there for me with my questions and market concerns. Needless to say my investments have done well under Solutions First Financial Groups watchful eye. I highly recommend their services and solutions.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
