About

Castle Coast Wealth, LLC (CCW) is an SEC‑registered advisory firm that manages approximately $423.7 million (as of December 31, 2025) and provides discretionary asset management, ongoing financial planning, and retirement plan (ERISA) services to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, and plan sponsors. The firm serves both individual households and institutional plan sponsors, and the ADV discloses household minimums for new asset management clients and the firm’s ability to recommend private fund investments when appropriate.

CCW describes an investment process that uses both quantitative and qualitative analysis and implements portfolios on a discretionary basis, with its brochure explicitly discussing the use of margin transactions, leverage, and other borrowing‑related techniques as part of its trading and risk framework. The firm offers both limited‑scope (ERISA 3(21)) advisory services and full discretionary (ERISA 3(38)) investment management for retirement plans, conducts ongoing account reviews, and directs clients to Schwab Advisor Services for custody and trade execution.

Compared with many peers, CCW’s disclosures and marketing approach note the use of client testimonials and the promotion of third‑party ratings in its advertising, and its ADV explicitly addresses borrowing and margin‑related risks for managed accounts—features that are statistically uncommon among similar team firms. The brochure also highlights due diligence on private and alternative investments and discloses potential conflicts from advisors’ external insurance compensation, information that may be relevant to prospective clients assessing product selection and governance.

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
