About
Capital Area Planning Group provides discretionary investment management, ongoing financial planning, and employee benefit plan advising to individuals, high-net-worth clients, and pension/profit-sharing plans. The firm also offers tax preparation and planning services and makes insurance and other financial products available to clients through affiliated entities.
The firm constructs customized, actively managed portfolios using principles of modern portfolio theory and fundamental analysis, and tailors allocations based on client suitability, tax considerations, and written client restrictions. CAPG implements ongoing supervision and periodic rebalancing across common asset types including equities, fixed income, mutual funds, and ETFs, and reports performance and portfolio summaries at least annually.
What distinguishes CAPG from many peers is its integration of other financial services under common ownership: the adviser’s principal is an IRS Enrolled Agent and the firm is affiliated with tax preparation, mortgage brokerage, and insurance businesses, with tax preparation included as an option within its financial planning engagements. These affiliations and the availability of insurance and mortgage services present potential conflicts of interest that the firm addresses through disclosure, documented suitability determinations, and by allowing clients to decline affiliated services.

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
