About

Collaborative Wealth provides financial planning and portfolio management to individuals (including high‑net‑worth and multi‑generational households) as well as institutional clients such as pension plans, foundations, and business entities. Its services range from limited and comprehensive planning to discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management, referrals to third‑party asset managers, and operation of a private real estate fund.

The firm’s investment process uses both fundamental and technical analysis to build long‑term asset allocation strategies implemented with mutual funds, ETFs, equities and fixed‑income, with periodic rebalancing and customized planning based on clients’ tax and risk profiles. For its private real estate business, Collaborative Wealth combines a data‑driven, AI‑assisted underwriting workflow with human oversight (UnderwriteAI), provides quarterly treasury and performance reporting, issues annual PCAOB‑audited financials, and employs blockchain‑anchored reporting for additional transparency.

Compared with many peers, the firm’s dual role as Sponsor/General Partner and Fund Advisor to a private multifamily/mixed‑use real estate fund—along with affiliated economic interests in the fund—is a distinctive feature; the brochure discloses related conflicts and mitigation steps such as formal offering documents, qualified custodial controls, and independent audits. The adviser also has dually registered associated persons who offer brokerage and insurance products through LPL Financial and receive transition assistance and other third‑party compensation, arrangements the firm discloses and monitors as potential conflicts.

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.
