Flat-fee, retirement plans for business owners (SEP, solo 401k) financial advisors in Flagstaff, AZ
The right financial advisor for you depends on how you weigh location, expertise, experience, the clients they typically serve, and how they work with you.
If you own a business and are setting up a retirement plan like a SEP or solo 401(k), you need an advisor who understands how to balance contributions with your business cash flow. A common mistake is choosing a plan without considering how it affects your taxes and retirement savings over time. Flat-fee advisors charge a set price, so you know what to expect without surprises.
- Plan type guidance. Ask how they decide between SEP and solo 401(k) based on your business size and income.
- Contribution strategy. Confirm they help you optimize how much to contribute each year to maximize benefits.
- Tax impact insight. Look for advisors who explain how your plan affects both business and personal taxes.
- Compliance support. Ensure they assist with filing requirements and deadlines to keep your plan in good standing.

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.
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. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.
Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
