CFP®-certified, retirement plans for business owners (SEP, solo 401k) financial advisors in Hanover, PA

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 choosing a plan without considering how it affects your taxes and cash flow over time. CFP® certification means these advisors have formal training in financial planning, including retirement and tax strategies.

  • Plan type guidance. Ask how they determine whether a SEP or solo 401(k) suits your business size and income pattern.
  • Tax impact insight. Confirm they explain how contributions affect your current and future tax situation, especially since retirement income is usually tax-exempt in Pennsylvania after a certain age.
  • Contribution limits. Check that they help you navigate annual limits and how to maximize your savings without penalties.
  • Integration with business goals. See if they consider your business growth plans when recommending retirement options.

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.

Find your advisor

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.
