Financial Advisors Serving Pittsburgh and Beaver, PA

Financial Advisors Serving Pittsburgh and Beaver, PA Who Integrate Tax and Investment Strategy for Total Clarity

We help Pittsburgh area's most successful families, professionals, and retirees reduce taxes, simplify their finances, and retire with confidence — through a personalized plan built to last.

Why We’re Different

Most firms separate tax planning from investment advice. We don’t.

At Three Cord True Wealth Management, we bring both disciplines under one roof — because the right investment strategy means very little if it ignores the tax implications.

You’ll work with a team of credentialed professionals who actually listen, plan around your life, and walk with you through every phase of it.

Real Results, Real People

I’ve had the pleasure of working with my advisor, Vasili, at Three Cord Wealth Management, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. Beyond simply managing our investments, Vasili takes the time to truly understand what matters most to me and my family. Together, we mapped out a clear and realistic plan to fund my children’s future education. He’s also guided me through various life insurance options, always diving deep into the details to ensure he has full conviction in his recommendations. That level of thoroughness and integrity really stands out. What I appreciate most is how proactive he is. From scenario planning around retirement to exploring how potential business ventures could impact my long-term financial picture, Vasili doesn’t just react—he anticipates.

I wholeheartedly recommend Three Cord.

Three Cord has been with us for 25 years — through college savings, retirement, rental property, and now widowhood. They remember everything, they never push, and they make me feel completely supported. They truly love what they do and treat you like people, not accounts.
