About

Mestmaker & Petrey Wealth Advisors provides asset management, pension consulting, and 401(k) participant services to individuals (including high net worth clients), trusts, corporations, and employer retirement plans. The firm also offers an optional subscription newsletter and client-accessible blog, and delivers educational seminars and participant education for plan sponsors.

For discretionary asset-management clients the firm conducts at least quarterly reviews and tailors portfolios using a mix of charting, fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis, employing long- and short-term holdings as well as trading, margin and option-writing strategies where appropriate. Pension consulting engagements and 401(k) participant reviews are delivered on a case-by-case basis and may include assistance with plan structure, investment option reviews and ongoing participant education or workshops.

The brochure highlights several features that are uncommon among similar supported firms: a paid subscription newsletter described as having a “somewhat aggressive bias,” regular educational seminars for retirement plan fiduciaries at no additional cost, and sponsorships or third‑party‑sponsored client events and speakers (disclosed as potential conflicts). It also discloses an operational relationship with Raymond James that provides research, technology and marketing support, plus one‑time onboarding assistance and transfer‑fee reimbursement arrangements.

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
