Our Process


Consult With Simon

Direct Consultations, 

Customized Plans

Simon believes in working with clients directly, giving you direct access to his 20 plus years of experience. Rather than approaching clients with a one-size-fits-all mindset, Simon works collaboratively with each individual to determine your specific needs and preferences. In your introductory consultation, he will meet with you to discuss your tax situation, risk tolerance, investment preferences, and more.

SETTING UP FOR THE PROCESS

Collaboration & Idea Sharing

There is a lot to know, but we keep it simple and work at your pace. This is a collaborative process, so share your ideas and we’ll do our best to integrate them into the portfolio construction.

TAKING THE STEP FORWARD

Custom Portfolio Construction

At Upstream, we’ll help you create a unique investment plan based on your specific financial scenario. After consulting with Simon to discuss your long-term objectives and risk tolerance, he'll develop your unique portfolio with those goals in mind.

PUTTING STRATEGY INTO ACTION

Closing Coordination & Execution

After determining your investment plan, Simon will facilitate closing on all your investments. Because Simon will be personally working with you, he'll be better able to offer ongoing support throughout the duration of your investments.

MAINTAINING YOUR PLAN

Consolidated Online Reporting

After closing, you will receive access to your unique client portal, which gives you access to information on your investments in one convenient location. You'll also be able to actively monitor your investment performance as part of your comprehensive investment opportunities. 

Our Means to Simplify Your Portfolio

Ongoing Communication

After closing, you’ll receive performance updates directly from your investment Sponsor and we'll stay in close contact to answer any questions you may have. Additionally, you'll get monthly communications that feature new offerings, industry updates, invitations to events, and more.

Annual Planning Needs

Each year, we will schedule an annual review to discuss your investment performance and communicate and updates from your Sponsor(s). This meeting also lets us discuss what you may need to know for end-of-year tax planning purposes. 

Additional Resources to Support You

Upstream has a wealth of knowledge and resources about alternative investments. 

Our resource library contains a wide variety of supporting materials like blogs, webinars and ebooks, all covering topics that include 1031 Exchanges, DSTs, alternative investments, and more.
