PROVIDING SOLUTIONS FOR HIGH NET WORTH FAMILIES THAT GIVE BACK THE MOST INVALUABLE LIFESTYLE COMPONENT… TIME
At Lifestyle Navigations, we build relationships and connect with both the individual and family unit to provide solutions that give back the most invaluable lifestyle component… time.
With multiple households, staff, social and philanthropic engagements, as well as intense travel schedules due to family and other commitments, high-net-worth families are consistently challenged with conflicting priorities and a lack of time with which to address these lifestyle demands.
Based on our core understanding that “Clients are relationships, not just revenue”, we listen, anticipate, connect and respond to a client’s most valued needs and choices; with property, financial, and destination planning services that help maintain invaluable lifestyle choices. Running the gamut from minutiae to essential reporting, planning and execution around key lifestyle components, we are led by a family’s business and personal needs in the following areas:
• DESTINATION & TRAVEL PLANNING
• FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT & PHILANTHROPY
• REAL ESTATE & PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
• ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES
