CFP®-certified, retirement plans for business owners (SEP, solo 401k) financial advisors in Gardnerville Ranchos, NV
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 want to set up a retirement plan like a SEP or solo 401(k), you need an advisor who understands how these plans fit into your overall financial picture. A common mistake is treating these plans as isolated benefits rather than part of a broader tax and retirement strategy. CFP® certification means these advisors have formal training in financial planning, including retirement and tax considerations.
- Plan design nuances. Ask how they tailor SEP or solo 401(k) options to your business size and cash flow, not just the basic plan features.
- Federal tax focus. Since Nevada has no state income tax, confirm how they optimize your retirement plan for federal taxes and other local taxes like sales and property.
- Business growth alignment. Check how they adjust your retirement contributions as your business income changes over time.
- Coordination with personal finances. Ensure they consider your retirement plan alongside your personal savings and investment goals.
Here are top matches to get you started. Review each profile to compare experience, credentials, and approach.

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
