About
Austin Wealth Management, LLC provides comprehensive financial planning and discretionary and non-discretionary investment management for individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, and estates, and also offers qualified retirement plan advisory services for small business plan sponsors and human resources teams. The firm delivers both one‑time financial planning engagements and ongoing wealth management that combine plan implementation, portfolio management, and periodic reviews.
For its in‑house portfolios AWM follows a systematic, research‑informed approach that emphasizes diversified, asset‑class‑based allocations while incorporating fundamental analysis, modern portfolio theory, technical analysis, and cyclical considerations as appropriate. The firm constructs model portfolios, may delegate implementation to sub‑advisors for specialized strategies, and acts as a fiduciary for retirement accounts under applicable law.
What distinguishes AWM among similar team firms is its institutional focus in addition to retail work: it accepts ERISA fiduciary roles (including discretionary plan management) for employer plans and provides ongoing sub‑advisory services to other investment advisers. The firm’s advisors hold industry licenses and professional qualifications, and AWM documents investment policy statements, coordinates with clients’ other professionals, and discloses conflicts arising from broker‑dealer and insurance activities.

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.
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
