About

America First Investment Advisors (AFIA) provides discretionary portfolio management and financial planning to individuals (including high-net-worth clients), employee benefit plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and other entities. The firm manages accounts using individual stocks, fixed‑income securities and money‑market funds and generally requires a minimum level of investable assets to begin a relationship.

AFIA’s equity approach emphasizes fundamental analysis—seeking well‑managed businesses available at prices below intrinsic value—and typically builds concentrated equity portfolios of roughly 15–25 positions, sometimes holding cash while deploying capital. For fixed income the firm often uses ETFs for diversification and cost efficiency, while larger accounts may hold individual Treasuries, agencies or corporate bonds; portfolio managers operate under discretionary authority and staff meet Series 65 and experience/education standards (with CFA and CFP designations among personnel).

The firm’s disclosures highlight several practices that distinguish it from many peers: AFIA uses third‑party lead generation and referral arrangements (it compensates SmartAsset and has legacy referral relationships with Schwab and TD Ameritrade) and participates in Schwab’s institutional advisor program, all of which are disclosed as potential conflicts of interest. AFIA also discloses a restricted set of clients who hold ownership interests in the holding company that owns the adviser (with amended policies permitting certain principal transactions only with prior disclosure and consent), handles standing letters of authorization that create imputed custody, and engages Chicago Clearing Corporation to process class‑action claims.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

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. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
