About

Apex Wealth Advisors LLC provides comprehensive financial planning and discretionary portfolio management to individuals, high-net-worth clients, charities, and business entities, managing roughly $122 million in client assets through a four-advisor team. Services include written financial plans, targeted financial consulting, and ongoing investment management delivered via model portfolios.

The firm’s investment approach centers on asset allocation implemented through model portfolios that may include ETFs and fractional shares, and it commonly delegates day‑to‑day trading and execution to sub‑advisers or co‑advisers while retaining oversight. Accounts are monitored and rebalanced as needed, with annual client reviews and regular reporting from custodians and the sub‑advisers.

Apex discloses operational ties that are uncommon among peers: some associates are registered representatives of broker‑dealer Alexander Capital, L.P. and an owner operates a separate CPA practice providing tax preparation and accounting services; the ADV describes these affiliations, related estate‑planning referrals, and insurance activities as potential conflicts of interest and outlines policies intended to mitigate them. These arrangements mean clients may receive recommendations that can be implemented through affiliated brokerage, accounting, or estate‑planning channels or through unaffiliated providers.

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
