About

Diligent Investors advises individuals, high net worth clients, trusts, retirement plans and business entities through financial planning, consulting, and comprehensive portfolio management. As of December 31, 2025 the firm reports $663,058,489 in discretionary assets under management for 761 clients overseen by three advisors.

The firm employs proprietary asset allocation models and fundamental security analysis to build individualized portfolios, offering both long- and short-term purchases and maintaining cash in money market funds, high-grade commercial paper or short-term bond funds. Comprehensive portfolio management is primarily delivered through the firm’s wrap fee program, and the firm discloses the use of derivatives and borrowing (margin) in some separately managed accounts as part of its investment implementation toolkit.

What distinguishes Diligent Investors among its peers is the scale of coverage per advisor—roughly 250+ clients and about $220M in AUM per advisor—combined with sponsorship of a wrap fee program and permissioned use of derivatives and leverage in SMAs, features that are less common among similar team firms. The brochure also notes that representatives are registered with a broker-dealer and hold insurance licenses while the firm maintains a custodial relationship and receives certain support services from its primary custodian.

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
