About

Acumen Wealth Advisors, LLC provides asset management, investment consulting, financial planning, and retirement plan consulting to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations, profit‑sharing plans, and private investment funds. The firm manages approximately $638 million in regulatory assets and offers both discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management alongside standalone planning and employer plan services.

Investment work begins with a defined investment objective and long‑term asset allocation implemented through model portfolios overseen by an investment committee, with tactical deviations of up to 10% permitted and quarterly research reviews. Portfolios may include public equities, fixed income, ETFs, mutual funds, alternative investments and private securities, and the firm uses sub‑advisers, a third‑party portfolio platform, and household‑level tax optimization when constructing and rebalancing accounts.

Acumen is notable among multi‑team peers for sponsoring and advising private pooled vehicles — including an affiliated private real estate fund (Cumberland Laurel Fund I LLC) managed through an affiliated general partner — and for providing portfolio management for pooled investment vehicles, arrangements the brochure describes as closed to new investors. The firm discloses the conflicts that arise from affiliated fund management (including management and performance‑based compensation and principals investing alongside clients) and describes mitigation measures such as different fee treatment for fund assets and the disclosure of affiliated and unaffiliated private fund options.

Not sure where to start?

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.

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
