Flat-fee, private / alternative investments financial advisors in New York
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're investing in private or alternative assets, you likely face complex valuation and liquidity challenges that can affect your overall portfolio. Without focused expertise, advisors might overlook how these investments impact your cash flow and tax situation.
- Valuation insight. Confirm how the advisor assesses the worth of illiquid or non-public assets, not just market-traded securities.
- Liquidity planning. Ask how they help manage cash needs when your investments can't be quickly sold.
- Estate tax awareness. In New York, estate tax rules can trigger large bills just above exemption limits; see how they plan around this.
- Flat-fee clarity. These advisors charge a set fee, so understand what services are included and how that aligns with your needs.
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
