Firm-wide stats for Novak & Powell Financial Services, Inc.
About
Novak & Powell Financial Services, Inc. provides investment supervisory services to individuals, families, trusts, pension and profit-sharing plans, charitable organizations, and businesses. Financial and special-needs planning are offered as part of its investment advisory services, and the firm also provides tax planning and tax preparation to both advisory clients and other non-advisory clients.
The firm follows a customized, interview-based process to determine client objectives and risk tolerance and constructs portfolios primarily with exchange-traded funds and open-end mutual funds rather than using model portfolios. NPFS emphasizes diversification and the minimization of fees as primary drivers, considers tax efficiency as a factor but not the overriding objective, and manages client accounts on a discretionary basis.
Notably, NPFS operates from five branch offices across multiple states, an organizational footprint that is less common among similarly sized team firms, and principals actively perform tax preparation services for clients while tax-preparation revenue represents under 1% of firm income. The firm also discloses that it generally does not vote client securities (custodians send proxy materials directly to clients) and reports a prior registration timing issue involving a firm principal as its only disciplinary matter.

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
