About
Lighthouse serves individuals, high‑net‑worth clients (and affiliated trusts and estates) as well as charitable organizations, providing comprehensive wealth management, financial planning, retirement plan consulting in an ERISA Section 3(21) capacity, and tax preparation. Its Wealth Management engagements include scheduled meetings and implementation support, and the firm also offers limited single‑session financial reviews.
The firm tailors investment strategies to each client and typically allocates among mutual funds and ETFs, with smaller positions in individual equities, bonds, and cash. Uncommonly for a team adviser, Lighthouse manages the majority of its $1.113 billion in client assets on a non‑discretionary basis (about $809 million non‑discretionary versus $305 million discretionary) and generally uses a negotiated fixed annual retainer approach rather than a standard percentage‑of‑AUM fee, which means clients commonly must approve trades and accounts can experience extended periods of trading inactivity while advisory fees continue.
Distinctive operational features include a compact advisory team managing over $1.1 billion in assets and a mix of services that extend beyond portfolio management to retirement plan consulting and tax preparation, as well as documented procedures around margin/pledged‑asset loans. The firm typically recommends a single institutional custodian and receives institutional support services, and its compliance leadership includes a licensed attorney who does not provide legal services to clients.

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
