Our Leadership

The team at Karasick & Associates have been incredible in assisting us in the next chapter of our lives! We sold our business, our home, our recreational property and then retired. Their knowledge of tax implications in doing all of this was amazing. They even brought in an expert to review our financials that in turn will save us SO much money, both now and in the future. We are very thankful to have met this team of professionals. They are a knowledgeable, kind, attentive group and are truly there to help you with your financial planning, every step of the way!

Leanne, Osoyoos
