James E Houghton
CLU®, ChFC®, CASL®, RICP®
Life Insurance Specialist
Jim and the team design individualized financial plans with the flexibility and the opportunity to take action. Their planning approach resonates with business owners and executives who have little time for fodder. It's about what clients need to hear, not what they want to hear. Five Cities Financial empowers clients with the understanding that it's up to them to move forward financially.
