I have been with Rebel nearly 20 years. They have proven to be extremely helpful and strategic with a professors income. I do not know where I'd be financially without their guidance and assurance in their process. It is fueled by a passion to excel and grow. I am in awe of their innovation and tech support. During these crazy times especially. I'm very pleased with the entire team. Deeplt grateful 🙏

We moved to rebel Financial when Phil began his firm from my husband’s previous university contact with him. Rebel has taken us through to our retirements with planning that makes a good rest of life possible for us. Phil and his team have supported us through problems, issues, successes and triumphs to make our way of life a comfort. We can turn to them whenever something out of the ordinary arises and they will help us navigate through the maze of financial questions out to a solution that works for us and our quality of life. I look at our financial planning as a great help as we move forward in our lives. The advice, careful analysis and helpful suggestions are always on point. We are more than lucky to have this incredible team behind us!

I have been a client of Phil and his team's since the start of this company! I am very pleased with the service and consideration rebel provides. Every interaction is personable, polite and professional. We sit down together annually and review all investments, goals, strategies, and ideas. They provide personalized and individualized attention to our needs. The team members break down the information into terms that are easily understood. The office atmosphere is extremely comfortable, they even have accommodations for our kids if we need to bring them! All questions are answered and explained. It can be scary trusting others to manage your retirement investments - I have never worried with rebel Financial! We consider ourselves very fortunate to have the relationship with this team of people!

Each encounter that we have with the Rebel Financial staff has been very professional and well done. We get all our questions and concerns answered. The full service that we get is extremely helpful in that your tax returns and estate planning all ties into your budget, savings, and investments. We never had a full service Advisor team before and wish we did. For over ten years I was the one doing all the financial investments and budgeting. We were so diversified among so many investment companies aka Vanguard, TD Ameritrade, Strong, T.Rowe Price, Strong Fund, etc that the paperwork was driving us nuts! We searched for a financial advisor who help us reduce the number of places we were invested with. Within 3 to 5 years we moved onto another Financial Advisor with another company. We were clients for about 10 to 12 years with our 2nd & 3rd Advisors before discovering Rebel Financial. The services from and integration of all our financial accounts with Rebel Financial has been tremendous in helping us keep track of all our investments, spending and savings. The monthly/quarterly paperwork is consolidated into a more manageable number of companies. New services are continually being researched by and offered by Rebel Financial to better meet the needs of their clients. By no means does this mean that I no longer manage our money. It must be a partnership with your Financial Advisor to successful. Today, I can say with confidence that Rebel Financial is the best financial partner we ever had.
Description of Work
We transferred our accounts from a prior financial advisor in late 2017. In 2019 we redid our Trust and Estate planning since we moved from Ohio to TN with Rebel Financial. Our income tax returns are done by Rebel Financial as well as a review of prior year done by another tax specialist. In 2020, we used Rebel Financial advise in establishing Long-Term health policy with another company. We receive 2 to 3 financial reviews each year.

I had been looking for a fee-based financial advisor for years when I met Phil Ratcliffe. He had a track record working with Ohio University faculty, and when he started his own business he was the only advisor I spoke to who was interested in helping me with what I had then. With other advisors, I heard "Give me a call when you have X amount of money to invest." Since then I have gained more wealth and have retired, and Phil and his staff have helped me every step of the way. I have gone from a person who was worried about retirement to a financially secure and happily retired person in a few years. I inherited some investments from a relative and a couple of days ago I had to call a representative of those investments to try to get them transferred to an account that Rebel had set me up with. One of Phil's staff, Acie Middleton, stayed on the phone with me the whole time and looked after my interests. At some point in the call, Acie got Phil on the phone, who asked some hard questions. By the end of the call, I knew exactly what to do, and the guy from the other company had increased his attentiveness to my needs. I'm also happy about the ways the business is always growing, expanding its services, so that I can get estate planning, tax accounting, budgeting, and investing in one stop. Rebel Financial is concerned with the whole context of financial security. On top of getting excellent advice whenever I need it, I want to express how much I trust this company. Phil and the staff are ethical, and it shows in the decisions they make and in the priorities they have. They have an ethics of service. And there's a dog in the office!

We have had Rebel managing our retirement accounts for two years now. I looked at a half dozen managers and settled on Rebel because of the rare combination of great analysts doggedly determined to follow a management philosophy that I trust, frequent risk assessments and account reviews to determine we are on track, and an entire staff of professionals with solid ethical standards, which can be difficult to find in financial management. We are very happy with the decision we made to go with Rebel!

Rebel Financial was great in helping my wife and I prepare for retirement. They pulled together our resource, liability, and spending data, along with our future goals, to develop a clear financial plan. Then, when we actually did retire, they were extremely efficient in establishing the accounts and making the necessary transfers to begin implementation of the plan. We feel the Rebel team really knows us and is genuinely interested in our financial future!

I could not be more pleased with rebel Financial. Any time I have a question about a financial decision, an advisor promptly contacts me to go over different scenarios. They offer a range of service levels and fee pricing to meet different individuals needs. Transferring our portfolios from other managers to rebel was a smooth process. I feel that the staff has made an effort to get to know us personally and do not treat use as inferiors. They offer several recreational outings throughout the year where clients can get to know each other while doing fun activities.

So far so good! Advice is good. They are very knowledgeable. Whenever outside expertise is needed, they set it up. Website that contains our important information is good and easy to use. You can manage your budget and see transactions by linking your accounts. Returns are solid. Risk management is taken seriously and they check with you regularly. They are socially conscience and will invest you savings in socially responsible funds if you prefer, which is important to us.

The staff at Rebel Financial are top notch. Their enthusiasm for what they do in providing a service to their clients is incomparable. Every time I have interaction with anyone on the staff, I come away feeling confident they have my best interest in mind. I can seriously say my finances and being ready to retire, as a concern, no longer exists. I trust them with one of the most important areas of my life. They walked me through the process of rolling over my 401k and provided guidance with my mortgage, remaining debt, spending, weaknesses in my plan and offered assistance shoring those up, They pretty much held my hand walking through the process. They continue to build relationships with other firms and are able to offer other services to their clients. I am proud to say, I am a Rebel.

Phil has a hands-on attention to detail coupled with a big-picture approach. He's mastered a broad range of investment tools and techniques—all of which he makes completely understandable and accessible to his clients at their respective comfort levels. His sheer enthusiasm for what he does is infectious. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by the complexities and vagaries of investing, we come away from our client meetings feeling informed and inspired. We trust Phil Ratcliff and rebel Financial implicitly, feeling that he truly has a clients-first attitude.
Description of Work
Phil Ratcliff and rebel Financial was recommended to us by one of my husband's co-workers. We've been working with rebel Financial for about 18 months. We have a modest investment profile, and we're basically hands-off. Already in the short time we've been working with rebel, our investments have improved significantly, even during recent periods of market volatility.

I have worked with Phil on my retirement accounts since I started at OSU in 2007. He has been great to work with and I followed him to Rebel shortly after he transitioned. Phil is great, easy to work with, and does his best to keep you interest number one. I am confident my retirement account is in good hands.

Things are going very well and the philosophy of Phil's approach is unique and puts him on the same side as the investor. He succeeds only by helping me succeed so the motivation is more in line with my goals unlike an advisor working on commission.
