About

Northwest Financial Advisors LLC provides investment advisory and financial planning services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), trusts, estates, retirement plans, charitable organizations and business entities. The firm delivers customized portfolio management and broader planning advice, and coordinates or refers clients to accountants, attorneys, trust companies and other specialists as needed.

NWFA follows a long‑term, asset‑allocation‑driven approach, assigning clients to an investment adviser representative who tailors allocations based on time horizon, risk tolerance and objectives. The firm implements strategies primarily through LPL Financial custodial programs (SWM, MWP, OMP, MAS, GWP) and recently adopted LPL’s Outsourced Chief Investment Officer (OCIO) program to support portfolio oversight, manager due diligence and model optimization while retaining adviser discretion.

The brochure discloses that NWFA is a separately capitalized company indirectly owned by Northwest Federal Credit Union and that affiliated entities — including a broker‑dealer and an insurance agency — may provide banking, brokerage, tax and estate‑planning related services, a structure that differs from many peers. It also notes that a number of supervised persons are dually registered with LPL and that relationships with LPL (including transition assistance and other payments) and affiliated entities can create potential conflicts of interest clients should consider.

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
