About

Lutz Financial serves individuals (including high-net-worth clients), retirement plans, charitable organizations, and business entities, providing discretionary and non-discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, retirement plan consulting, and digital asset-management through an Automated Investment Program. The firm manages approximately $3.19 billion in client assets across 14 advisors and supports both standalone financial planning engagements and implementation recommendations to outside professionals.

Investment strategies emphasize diversified use of mutual funds, ETFs, and individual bonds, with ongoing monitoring and rebalancing tailored to client objectives; the firm specifically uses Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA) funds and offers a digital program held at Altruist for clients seeking an automated solution. Lutz Financial also provides ERISA-related retirement plan services, including discretionary 3(38) investment management for pooled qualified plans and 3(21) advisory services for other plans, and uses reporting and technology tools (including Orion and approved AI workflows) as part of its service delivery.

Distinctive features include an ownership and referral relationship with a regional certified public accounting firm (via a majority owner structure), which creates an integrated accounting-advisory affiliation and potential referral flow, and the firm’s relative rarity among peers in offering fiduciary portfolio management for pooled retirement vehicles — services that fewer multi-team firms provide. The firm’s use of DFA funds (which require advisor approval for continued access) and its combination of traditional advisor-led and automated offerings are additional operational characteristics that may affect implementation and portability for 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.

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
