Experience

Makes all the difference

The Longshore Group thrives to understand our client's needs, objectives and risk tolerance in order to better prepare for the investment process. All of our relationships begin with a comprehensive and thorough evaluation of each client's financial status. Based on this evaluation, the current status of the market, and individual security analysis, we recommend what we believe to be an appropriate mix of investments. As a team, we seek to invest in a diversified portfolio of well managed companies that demonstrate the potential for profit growth over a three to five year horizon. We are determined to develop a plan that best fits your financial needs for both the present and the future.
