About
Chaim Investment Advisors LLC provides ongoing portfolio management and financial planning to individuals, high‑net‑worth individuals, and pension plans, and does not custody client funds. The firm’s service set includes written investment policy statements, model portfolios, and pension consulting for retirement plans such as 401(k)s, and it utilizes Investment Only Variable Annuities through Nationwide as a tax‑deferral tool when appropriate.
CIA tailors portfolios to each client’s goals, time horizon, and documented risk tolerance, applying fundamental and cyclical analysis alongside modern portfolio theory and using both long‑term and short‑term trading (with limited use of options such as puts). The adviser typically recommends mutual funds—primarily U.S.-focused—for most clients, provides discretionary management with regular monitoring, and offers financial plans at no additional cost to portfolio management clients.
A noteworthy aspect of the firm is its pension consulting practice, which includes identifying plan objectives and restrictions, recommending and monitoring money managers and service providers, and preparing a written pension consulting plan—services that fewer independent advisers offer. The firm operates on a fee‑only basis and employs commission‑free IOVA solutions in its holistic planning approach, managing roughly $19.3 million for about 114 clients.

Forms ADV
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
