About

Christman Financial Advisors LLC is a small, independent, fee-only registered investment adviser that provides financial planning and investment management primarily to individual clients and families. The firm delivers services that include retirement and estate planning, tax planning, cash-flow analysis, insurance review, education funding, and investment supervisory services, and managed about $35.8 million for roughly 84 clients as of 12/31/2025.

The firm uses a core, strategic asset-allocation approach built around passively managed index funds and ETFs and provides discretionary portfolio management with the option for clients to impose investment restrictions. Relationship management is documented in a client relationship system or planning software, and services range from ongoing wealth management and tax-loss harvesting to limited-scope hourly or project engagements.

Distinctive features include its strictly fee-only model (no commissions or finder’s fees), multiple billing options (AUM-based and fixed-fee comprehensive arrangements, plus hourly work), and a subscription-style Financial Fundamentals program aimed at clients earlier in their wealth-building journey that can include optional investment management under the firm’s Schwab master account. The firm also participates in the Dave Ramsey SmartVestor Pro marketing program, does not accept referral fees from other professionals, and does not vote client proxies.

Christman Financial Advisors LLC

At Christman Financial Advisors LLC my mission is to help clients "ACHIEVE UNCOMMON FREEDOM". The purpose is to help build, manage, preserve and protect your wealth for generations no matter what stage your in or at. Clients of Christman Financial Advisors understand that by coordinating and managing today’s financial decisions they can achieve their goals for tomorrow while still enjoying the fruits of their labor today. Clients usually have no desire to manage their financial affairs on a daily basis, want to simplify their lives, and are willing to delegate that responsibility as well as enter into a long-term relationship. They know they can sleep at night knowing that I am looking out for their well being. They want to work with a professional advisor, not a sales representative. At Christman Financial Advisors, I believe people should seek to partner in their financial lives with a professional financial planner who is their guide, not their guru, who delivers discipline over promises of great investment returns, and who is an advocate for them and coordinates that advocacy with the other professionals in their lives. There are several areas that I help families and individuals when it comes to Financial Planning and Wealth Management. 1. Solid investment performance. While I cannot control the actual return you achieve on your investments my philosophy is to invest in vehicles that I know and understand and that will allow you to sleep comfortably at night. I look to diversify your investments and stress capital preservation and maintaining quality of life, not performance. 2. Control and Simplicity. My goal is to simplify your investments and personal finances and take over the burden of the daily management of those investments so that you have more control over that aspect of life. 3. Appropriate products and strategies. I help you choose the right investments and strategies (along with your other Advisors) that match your volatility (risk) tolerance and your unique situation. As a fee only Advisor I do not receive any commission from the sale of any individual product. I recommend what is in YOUR best interests. 4. Help in planning or maintaining a secure retirement and getting their financial house in order. 5. Helping you avoid mistakes. Many investors lose money because they invest at the peak and pull their money out in the troughs. I will act as your guide. A professional that you can call and talk to before making a decision.
