About
Creative Financial Strategies serves individuals, small businesses, pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, and charitable organizations, providing personalized financial planning, investment management, tax preparation, and business advisory services. The firm is fee‑based and also offers annuities and other commissioned insurance products, reflecting insurance-related activities alongside its advisory services.
The adviser provides investment recommendations primarily on a non‑discretionary basis: clients make the final investment decisions and any limited power of attorney is used only to act at the client's documented direction. Portfolios are implemented through third‑party asset management platforms and guided by written investment policy statements, with periodic reviews and planning options that include hourly engagements, retainers, and comprehensive financial plans.
Noteworthy aspects include DST/1031 exchange consulting and facilitation — with a one‑time consulting arrangement upon implementation — and a broader set of business services (Independent CFO, budgeting, debt and financing consulting) uncommon for many small independent advisers. The firm operates at a small scale (reporting roughly $293,250 in advised assets across about 11 clients as of December 2025) and emphasizes client‑directed decisions rather than delegated portfolio discretion.

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
