Caleb Stapp Launches Deep Creek Financial Planning

Wealth Advisor Caleb Stapp has launched Deep Creek Financial Planning, a new financial planning firm in Deer Park, Washington. With a focus on serving active retirees and successful business owners, Stapp aims to provide personalized financial and tax planning services using advanced tools and technology. The inspiration for the firm’s name comes from the Stapp family’s adventures at Deep Creek Canyon.

In a recent development for the Deer Park community, local Wealth Advisor Caleb Stapp has announced the launch of his new financial planning firm, Deep Creek Financial Planning. With years of experience at a large firm under his belt, Stapp is eager to bring his expertise and passion for helping others to his own business venture.

Stapp’s decision to launch Deep Creek Financial Planning stems from a desire to serve his clients more deeply and effectively. “My wife and I homeschool our kids and all year we’ve been teaching them how to run their own businesses – but I wasn’t a business owner myself,” says Stapp. By utilizing advanced financial and tax planning tools, he aims to provide personalized solutions tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals.

Deep Creek Financial Planning will primarily focus on serving two key demographics: active retirees and successful business owners. “My core clients are retirees and those within five years of retirement, who want to be wise stewards of their nest egg, not run out of money, and leave a meaningful legacy. I connect deeply with diligent savers who care about their future and their community,” Stapp shared.

For successful business owners, Stapp aims to provide guidance on tax-saving strategies while helping them prepare for a bright future. “and with successful business owners who want to save money on taxes while preparing for a bright future.”

The inspiration behind the firm’s name, “Deep Creek,” holds special meaning for Stapp and his family. The many adventures they’ve shared at the junction of Deep Creek Canyon and the Spokane River have taught valuable lessons about planning, adaptation, and communication – skills Stapp believes are essential in financial planning. “Our five kids have loved learning to canoe in the safe waters of Deep Creek, which is surprisingly shallow, and then taking their new skills out into the broader river. Canoeing requires a mixture of planning and adaption, helps develop communication skills, and while usually safe, can have its thrilling moments as well. Financial planning has many similarities. I’ve learned that individuals and couples often benefit from working with a guide through the sometimes scary waters of investments and retirement planning,” states Stapp.

Caleb Stapp brings a wealth of experience to his new venture, having lived in Eastern Washington since 2005 and served in various roles, including pastoral ministry, the Deer Park City Council, and as a financial advisor. With Deep Creek Financial Planning, he looks forward to meeting with clients in person from Spokane to Chewelah and remotely from coast to coast.
