Demland Wealth is a flat-fee, fee-only fiduciary firm helping Christians retire well and give generously. We serve Christian households who are retired or within five years of retirement — typically with $1 million or more in investable assets — combining retirement income planning, proactive year-round tax strategy, charitable giving, and Biblically Responsible Investing into one comprehensive plan. Our team holds the CFP®, Certified Kingdom Advisor® (CKA®), and Enrolled Agent (EA) credentials, so tax planning is a core competency, not an afterthought. Clients pay one transparent flat annual fee that doesn't increase as their portfolio grows — no commissions, no product sales, no conflicts of interest. Based in Defiance, Ohio, we work virtually with families across the country. A lot of advisors try to be all things to all people — we don't. Our expertise is helping Christian families make the most of what God has entrusted to them, before and during retirement.
