About
Compass Private Wealth Group LLC advises individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, families, trusts, estates, businesses, and retirement plans, managing roughly $113 million for about 80 clients across three advisors. Services described in the firm’s Form ADV include discretionary wealth and investment management, financial planning, retirement plan advisory, and a standalone educational book.
The firm’s investment approach is primarily long‑term, employing both fundamental and technical analysis to construct diversified portfolios of ETFs, stocks, mutual funds, and occasionally bonds, with a stated preference for institutional share classes when feasible. CPW tailors portfolios to each client’s goals and risk tolerance, may recommend and oversee unaffiliated independent managers, and implements rebalancing, tax harvesting, or cash positions as appropriate.
The brochure discloses a couple of practices that are uncommon among peers: the firm uses endorsements in its advertising and may permit short‑term margin or borrowing strategies in client accounts (with explicit risk disclosures about margin calls), including in separately managed account arrangements. The disclosure also notes an institutional relationship with Charles Schwab that provides platform benefits and participation in an online investor‑matching referral program—conflicts the firm discloses and says it manages through policies and oversight.

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
