About

HBKS Wealth Advisors serves individuals (including non‑HNW and high‑net‑worth clients), retirement plans and other institutional and corporate clients. The firm offers personalized investment management, financial planning, pension consulting and a dedicated high‑net‑worth service branded as Level 3.

HBKS develops tailored portfolios after gathering client information through interviews, questionnaires and document reviews, and typically manages accounts on a discretionary basis using proprietary model portfolios, sub‑advisors and multiple platform arrangements (including Adhesion, Envestnet, Schwab and Raymond James). The firm deploys a broad set of strategies — fixed‑income, alternatives, UMA/tax‑overlay services and cryptocurrency exposure are among the options disclosed — while stating it does not specialize in any single investment area.

Noteworthy differences from many peers include the firm’s periodic client newsletters (educational materials provided free of charge), a cluster of affiliated businesses (an accounting affiliate where some investment adviser representatives are CPAs, an affiliated limited‑use broker‑dealer and an insurance affiliate), and a material affiliation with Park Shore Partners LLC that manages affiliated private Opportunity Funds and a MAS Fund; the brochure discloses overlapping personnel, dual registrations and related conflicts in those arrangements. HBKS also provides back‑office and sub‑advisory services to third‑party advisers, including affiliated advisers, which the firm highlights as a distinct business line and potential source of conflicts.

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
