About
Castle Wealth Planning provides investment advisory and planning services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations and retirement plan sponsors. Services disclosed in the brochure include comprehensive portfolio management, standalone financial planning and consulting, retirement plan consulting, and portfolio monitoring, with planning work that can cover estate, tax, charitable, real estate and lines‑of‑credit evaluations.
The firm describes an individualized portfolio process that combines fundamental analysis, long‑ and short‑term security selection, and continuous monitoring and rebalancing. Portfolios may include ETFs, mutual funds, individual equities and bonds, options (including covered and uncovered writing), private equity and cryptocurrency trusts, and the firm discloses that some option strategies can require margin or additional funding and that it may request margin payments when needed.
Noteworthy aspects of the firm include reported assets under management of roughly $236 million, a level that produces materially higher AUM per advisor compared with most supported peers. The brochure also discloses a prior SEC administrative action related to Form CRS filing and delivery requirements (resulting in censure and a $25,000 penalty) and notes that the firm no longer accepts proxy voting authority for client accounts.

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 referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
