About Karstens Financial

 

Karstens Financial was established by Jake Karstens in 2009. Jake commenced his professional carrier in 1998 as an intern and in 2002 as a Regional Sales Representative for Deutsche Bank. At Deutsche Bank he grew professionally obtaining licenses and learning about products including mutual funds, managed accounts, annuities, and retirement plans.

 

In 2006, Jake joined the team at Managers Investment Group, where he initially functioned as a Regional Sales Representative. Jake’s performance led to several promotions including Regional Sales Directors covering the central regional of the country.  After the market crash of 2008, Jake decided to focus his talent on individual and business clients by starting his own practice and from this Karstens Financial was born.

  

Jake Karstens joined Interactive Financial Advisors in 2012 to offer financial planning and money management to his clients. Jake offers business consulting & financial planning as a complimentary service to his clients. He wants to help clients understand their insurance policies, financial plans, and most importantly, their options. 

 

 

Meeting with Jake simply means sitting down and reviewing your current situation – family, business, finances, property, and long-term plans. He will then use this information to identify a process to achieve your goals.

Building Relationships

What does this means to you? Karstens Financial works with a number of difference insurance companies not just one! Why get one quote when you are searching for coverage, when we can provide multiple! For instance, we work directly with over 20 different auto and home insurance carriers to find the best coverage and cost to meet your needs.

This is a meeting where you and one of our team members reviews your current situation – family, business, finances, property, and long-term plans and goals. We use this information to identify risks you may not have considered and we look for any discount opportunities. We identify your goals and evaluate your current plans.
