Fee Structure

Minimum Investment:None
Investment management only (planning not offered)

Packerland offers several investment management programs with fees structured as a percentage of your portfolio, billed in advance on a quarterly basis. Because the firm works with various third-party platforms and money managers, specific fee schedules are negotiated directly between you and your investment advisor representative. Depending on the program selected—such as individual portfolio management, co-advisory programs, or unified managed accounts—fees may be bundled to cover advisory, custodial, and trading services, or charged separately. There are no account minimums required by Packerland itself to open an advisory account, though specific third-party programs or model portfolios may have their own minimum investment requirements.
