Rewealth

I'm a real estate investor and coach-at-heart with first-hand experience in landlording, property management, and adding value through late night renovations and elbow grease. It can be hard for real estate investors to find a financial advisor that's not pitching them on another insurance product or trying to persuade them to sell their properties and put the proceeds into securities the advisor can manage. I founded REWealth to be different: to bring real financial planning and conflict-free advice to those who hold or aspire to hold real estate directly. I've spent over ten years combined in finance, technology, and real estate. Before that, I was an elementary school teacher. In each role, the bar was held high to achieve excellence for clients, partners, and students. REWealth holds itself, and I hold myself, to the same high standards of execution and integrity. I'll add that while REWealth is open to servicing people from all backgrounds, my family and I are Christians and are members in good standing at our local church.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
