Planning for your future is an investment in your long-term financial well-being. - Helen Ngo, CFP®

Founded Oct 2013.
Capital Benchmark Partners, LLC was founded with one mission in mind: Make financial planning straight forward and accessible for clients of all income levels.
Like most situations in life, financial success is relative. In the investment world, a benchmark is set as a measuring stick to determine how well a particular investment is doing relative to it. So, when it comes to your personal finances, you have to set your own benchmark to gauge how well you’re actually doing. As your life changes, we will work together to make adjustments to your financial plan where necessary.
Our services extend well beyond recommending investments. Our goal is to make financial planning easy for you to understand, follow, and execute so that you can confidently live the lifestyle you want.

YOUR LIFE MILESTONES ARE TOO IMPORTANT NOT TO DISCUSS.
We all have those days where you can’t see past dinner time, let alone plan for 20 to 30 years down the road. Perhaps a financial plan of action is in place for the next month or year, but after that your plan is a bit hazy or your needs are more complicated.
How do you start that dialogue about future plans and simplify these needs?
We're devoted to providing the tools to help you take control of your financial path and set goals into action by designing a strategic plan around them. This doesn’t mean the plan won’t change; these strategies are about getting you to a place where you feel confident that you’re going in the right direction for the long haul.
Whether it’s preparing for marriage, starting a new business, having a baby or any major life benchmark, significant life changes require financial preparation.
Let’s start the conversation today to plan your tomorrow.
