About
EMK Investment Advisors, LLC provides discretionary, personalized portfolio management to individuals, pension and profit-sharing plans, charitable organizations, and business entities, and the firm requires a minimum account size of $1 million. As of January 31, 2018 the firm reported approximately $4.09 million in discretionary assets under management and operates with a small advisory team.
The firm applies fundamental analysis, favors long-term purchases, and may employ options strategies as part of its investment approach, with a primary focus on master limited partnerships (MLPs), real estate investment trusts (REITs), and high-dividend equities; portfolios are monitored and rebalanced as client circumstances or market conditions change. The brochure notes that tax efficiency is not a primary consideration unless specifically agreed, and clients are encouraged to consult tax professionals about tax implications.
Noteworthy features include disclosed affiliations: the firm’s principal maintains an affiliated law practice that provides estate planning services and an affiliated bookkeeping/accounting consulting firm; these relationships are disclosed and clients are not required to use those services. The firm is small in scale, does not take custody of client assets (custody is maintained with third‑party custodians), and does not vote client proxies on their behalf, which are operational characteristics clients may consider relative to larger 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.
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
