ADVISORS' COMBINED YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

John Davis has always shown a genuine interest in our specific investment needs and developed an outstanding financial plan to achieve our goals. We greatly appreciate the time and care John takes in thoroughly answering all of our questions with informative answers in language we can understand. He is a dedicated, astute, and trustworthy professional, and I have the utmost confidence in John’s superior ability to guide all of our financial plans and decisions.

Blair P. – Business Owner

As a business owner of a company that specialized in reviewing specific cost centers for our clients it was important for myself to “walk the talk” regarding my own personal financial situation. Through personal associates, I met with Blackburn Davis and discovered I had been missing several opportunities with respect to my current investments and planning for my future. Making a change was very easy and has also been very rewarding because of the solid advice I have received over the years. My confidence level with this group is extremely high and I would recommend them to anyone.

Blair P. – Business Owner

I’ve had a great experience dealing with Blackburn Davis Financial for over twenty years. I trust their knowledge and expertise in dealing with my investments. I greatly appreciate the time Kelley and John spend with me; whether it’s in person or on the phone; explaining my portfolio in great detail, talking about market fluctuations, and promptly answering any questions or concerns I have ever encountered.

Linsay T. – Teacher

My family have been clients of Blackburn Davis for years, from the outset John did an excellent job in assisting us craft a vision for the future and what was possible. Throughout the years we have had many interactions with the team at Blackburn Davis, they are efficient, proactive, professional and always polite. We have come to appreciate John’s commitment to education, clarity and transparency.
