About
Cortez Wealth Management works primarily with individual clients, including high-net-worth households, and provides ongoing portfolio management, pension consulting for employer-sponsored plans, and both one-time and ongoing financial planning. The firm also offers estate-planning facilitation through a third‑party platform and access to third‑party managed account programs.
The firm documents client objectives and risk tolerances in written investment policy statements and generally manages accounts on a discretionary basis, using model allocations tailored to each client. Its investment methods include fundamental and technical analysis and modern portfolio theory, and strategies may include a broad set of instruments — mutual funds, ETFs, fixed income, annuities, private placements — as well as margin, options, and short-sale strategies when appropriate.
Distinctive features include operating as a solo‑advisor firm and an advisor who maintains active insurance licensure and participates on an insurance platform, arrangements the brochure discloses as potential conflicts of interest and describes mitigation procedures for. The firm also integrates multiple technology and platform relationships (Orion, AssetMark, Schwab/Altruist, and Matrix Trust for certain retirement plans) and coordinates estate-document preparation with an independent attorney through Wealth.com.

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 referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
