Northumberland County

Financial Advisor in Northumberland County

One independent planning team for the whole county — from Port Hope to Brighton, Cobourg to Campbellford. Investments, insurance, tax, wills and incorporated-business strategy, all coordinated.

Thompson & Pollock Wealth Inc. serves clients across Northumberland County from our office in Oshawa and through in-person meetings throughout the region. Whether you're in Cobourg, Port Hope, Brighton, Warkworth, Campbellford, Colborne, Grafton or out in Hamilton or Cramahe Township, we work the way you'd want a planner to work — one team, one plan, one quarterback for everything money-related in your life.

Our Northumberland client base skews toward retirees, real estate investors, professionals commuting to the GTA, and incorporated trades and contracting businesses. We translate complexity into something you can actually act on. On the trades side, we specifically advise incorporated plumbing businesses, HVAC and refrigeration companies, electrical contracting firms, residential framing outfits and full-scope renovation builders across the County.

  • Investment management through the Optimize Private Client Program
  • Life, critical illness, disability and long-term care insurance — full Canadian market

Why Northumberland County families choose us

Most county residents don't want a downtown Toronto advisor and don't want to be sold a product by their bank. They want an independent, plain-spoken planner who'll pick up the phone and integrate everything — the corp, the RRSP, the spousal RRIF, the rental properties, the kids' RESPs, the wills. That's exactly the practice we've built.

Because we shop the full Canadian market and aren't captive to any one bank or insurer, the recommendation you get is the one that actually fits your goals — not the one paying the highest commission this quarter.

EXAMPLE CLIENT SCENARIOS

How we help clients in Northumberland County

Incorporated contractor, no plan for the corporation

Business owner, 45, incorporated renovation company

Retained earnings were building in the corporation with no strategy for salary, dividends or investing.

What we did

  • Reviewed salary vs. dividend mix with his accountant
  • Set up corporate investing and corporate-owned insurance
  • Added a buy/sell plan with his business partner

One coordinated plan across the business and household, reviewed every year.

Young family starting out

Couple, early 30s, two young children

New mortgage, no wills, and an RESP they'd opened but never contributed to.

What we did

  • Set up RESP contributions to capture the government grant
  • Sized life and disability coverage to the mortgage and income
  • Arranged first wills and powers of attorney

The basics covered in a few meetings, with a budget they could keep.

Retiree consolidating accounts

Recently retired, 66, accounts at three institutions

RRSPs, a TFSA and a small pension spread across banks, with no view of total fees or income.

What we did

  • Consolidated statements into one picture of fees and holdings
  • Built a tax-aware withdrawal order for RRIF, TFSA and pension

One clear monthly income plan and fully disclosed fees.

These are illustrative examples of common situations, not specific clients. Every plan depends on your own circumstances; results are not guaranteed.

Before you book

What happens next?

We reply with the next 2–3 available meeting slots. Once you pick one, you’ll get a calendar invite and a short prep note so we can make the most of the time.

How long does it take?

Most first meetings are 20–30 minutes. We’ll ask a few questions, share what we see, and only move forward if it makes sense for you.

What should I bring?

Nothing is required. If you have a recent tax return, group benefits summary, or investment statement handy, it helps — but only if you want to share it.
