About
The firm works with individual and high‑net‑worth clients, offering written financial planning and recommendations to third‑party investment advisers rather than providing in‑house portfolio management. It does not directly manage client assets; recommended third‑party advisers handle trading, custody, and reporting while the firm provides the written plan and ongoing advisory support.
The firm’s investment approach centers on asset allocation implemented through selected third‑party managers; it reviews candidates on factors such as fees, reputation, performance, and reporting capabilities before making referrals. Once a manager is engaged, the firm monitors performance, meets with clients at least annually, and coordinates plan updates and reviews.
Distinctive aspects include an affiliation with insurance activities — the firm’s principal acts as an independent insurance agent and may receive commissions for insurance sales, a disclosed conflict the firm seeks to mitigate through disclosure and fiduciary duty. The brochure also discloses a 2021 matter in which a recommended cryptocurrency fund proved fraudulent, resulting in client losses, complaints and related civil litigation, and notes the principal was also a victim of the scheme.

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
