About
Hood Financial provides investment management and comprehensive financial planning to individual and high‑net‑worth clients, delivering portfolio oversight alongside a tiered "Complete Sherpa Experience" planning program. Like many small advisory firms, it typically charges asset‑based fees and develops tailored plans based on each client’s objectives, time horizon, and risk tolerance.
The firm favors passive investment strategies built with index mutual funds and exchange‑traded funds and uses a sub‑adviser (Simplicity Wealth, LLC) to perform discretionary portfolio management and trading. Account supervision is directed by client objectives and may include client‑imposed restrictions, with custody arranged through a qualified custodian.
A noteworthy and uncommon feature is that the firm is also a licensed insurance agency and its representatives are licensed insurance agents; insurance product sales generate commissions and the principal devotes roughly half of his time to insurance activities, which presents potential conflicts of interest. The adviser’s multiple estate‑ and senior‑focused professional designations, combined with a relatively small client base and modest assets under management, indicate a practice oriented toward estate and retirement‑income planning for older and high‑net‑worth individuals.

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
