Firm History

LFA has been in business for over forty years, founded by Lou Oberman in 1980. Our firm was created with the purpose of providing comprehensive financial planning and wealth management services to clients. LFA recognized the importance of providing ongoing and in-depth financial advice when financial planning was merely a seedling concept in the world of finance. 

In 1987 Steve Van Houten, a young CFP® professional working for a San Diego real estate firm, called on Lou and the two developed a professional relationship.  Steve, like Lou, shared the same passion for helping clients pursue financial independence. In 1993 they decided that Lou’s experience and Steve’s technical knowledge and boundless energy would form the perfect partnership. They chose the name Lifetime Financial Advisors to reflect their goals of helping clients and their families for a “lifetime”.
