About

Covenant Wealth Advisors provides personal financial planning and investment management to individuals, families, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and business entities. The firm offers comprehensive or modular planning, portfolio management, and coordination of outside subject-matter experts (e.g., CPAs, estate attorneys), and generally operates with a $1,000,000 family account minimum that it may waive in certain cases.

The firm’s investment approach is grounded in Modern Portfolio Theory and long‑term asset allocation, emphasizing the use of passively managed mutual funds and ETFs from providers such as DFA, Vanguard, and Avantis with periodic rebalancing. For many clients, Covenant implements customized model portfolios and outsources operational portfolio monitoring, trading, and re‑optimization to a third‑party manager and platform (Focus Partners Advisor Solutions).

Noteworthy operational features include client-facing advertising activity — the firm receives advertising revenue from CWA‑branded social media channels and discloses the use of testimonials in its advertising — and formal third‑party arrangements with Focus, which provides SA Funds and shares in certain tool and event costs. Covenant also documents an explicit client refund policy allowing clients to request a full refund of advisory or financial planning fees within 180 days, a service guarantee that is not universally offered by peers.

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.

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
