About

Investor FAN provides investment management, financial consulting, and retirement plan advisory to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, employer‑sponsored retirement plans, foundations, trusts and estates. The firm manages accounts on a discretionary basis and says it tailors portfolios to each client’s goals while coordinating with other advisors such as CPAs and estate attorneys.

The firm’s investment approach emphasizes Modern Portfolio Theory and uses fundamental, technical, cyclical and macroeconomic analysis when constructing portfolios; investments may include equities, fixed income, mutual funds, ETFs, options, margin and alternative investments. Investor FAN may access unaffiliated independent managers and programs, implements both long‑ and short‑term trades, and typically reviews accounts quarterly or more frequently as needed.

The brochure discloses that some Representatives are also licensed to sell insurance and may receive commissions, and that some Representatives may receive income for providing accounting services, each of which the firm acknowledges as potential conflicts of interest. Investor FAN is under common ownership with RIA Systems, LLC—which provides software, compliance and operational support—and it discloses receipt of transition and technology payments from its primary custodian (Charles Schwab) as an economic benefit.

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
