Dream Catcher Financial Services, LLC

Dream Catcher Financial Services advises primarily individual investors who seek diversification through alternative investments and proprietary money‑management models; the firm operates on a fee‑only, percentage‑of‑assets basis and manages a small number of client accounts with financial planning offered on a case‑by‑case basis and alternatives limited to accredited investors. Portfolios are constructed to reflect each client’s stated risk tolerance.

The firm’s investment program relies on proprietary models and a suite of strategies — the brochure notes 17 defined strategies with 14 currently in use — and employs mutual funds, leveraged mutual funds, and alternative investments, typically managed on a discretionary basis within an agreed strategy. It uses third‑party due diligence for alternative sponsors and provides combined quarterly written reports to clients in addition to custodian statements.

A disclosed disciplinary matter with a Colorado regulator in 2017 led to a change in how the firm bills for alternative investments (switching a prior one‑time charge to an annual wrap fee), a disclosure that is uncommon among independent peers. The combination of a small advisory practice, an emphasis on alternative and leveraged strategies, and formalized due‑diligence and reporting practices distinguishes the firm from many similar independent advisors.
