Cetera Welcomes Experienced Financial Advisors David Park and Tammy Hospodar
Cetera Financial Group has recently welcomed two seasoned financial advisors, David Park and Tammy Hospodar, to its team. Along with their capable support team, they oversee nearly $140 million in assets under administration (AUA). Based in Valencia, California, the Park Wealth Advisors team is joining Cetera's BAR Financial region, which is managed by Greg Brackett, ultimately enhancing the advisory services offered within Cetera's extensive network.
Reasons for Transition
Park and Hospodar made the strategic decision to leave their previous affiliation with Osaic to unite with Cetera. Their motivation stemmed from a desire for improved service capabilities, cutting-edge technology, and operational efficiencies conducive to growth. Park emphasized the importance of having a dedicated service team that understands their business nuances, allowing for smoother operations. He noted the positive experience with Cetera's service staff, who promptly address inquiries and are well-acquainted with their business needs.
Hospodar echoed these sentiments, highlighting the user-friendly nature of Cetera's systems. She commented on the decreased complexity and increased client accessibility since the team transitioned to Cetera, making their operations notably more efficient. The advantages brought forth by Cetera's marketing support from BAR Financial also position them optimally for future growth without compromising their core values.
Focus on Relationships
Both Park and Hospodar have a strong commitment to building enduring relationships with their clients, prioritizing thoughtful, jargon-free financial guidance over high-pressure tactics. They serve a diverse clientele that includes individuals and families with specialized needs such as same-sex couples, employing a personalized and goals-oriented approach to wealth management. “This business is all about relationships, not transactions,” stated Park, emphasizing their dedication to thoughtful advisory services.
Tim Stinson, President of Cetera’s Large Enterprise channel, commented on the valuable experience Park and Hospodar bring to the firm, praising their tailored approach to client services. Their experience in developing a relatable client service model aligns seamlessly with Cetera’s commitment to advisors providing personalized services.
