About

Paragon Investing provides investment advisory and financial planning services to individuals, high net worth individuals, businesses, and other investment advisers. The firm offers both discretionary and non‑discretionary managed accounts, portfolio management, and standalone or bundled financial planning and consulting services, with account minimums disclosed for access‑only and full‑service programs.

The firm’s investment process is tailored to client objectives, time horizon, and risk tolerance and can incorporate asset allocation, dollar‑cost averaging, technical and fundamental analysis, and use of mutual funds, ETFs and interval funds. Paragon states a primary goal of preserving purchasing power over the long term and discloses operational controls around third‑party technology, including due diligence on service providers that employ artificial intelligence or machine learning.

Paragon’s brochure notes a client base that explicitly includes other registered investment advisers, a relatively uncommon client type for firms of this size, and it discloses the use of performance materials, including hypothetical performance, in its marketing materials. The firm reports a mix of discretionary and non‑discretionary assets under management and details practices for restricted‑access and interval fund allocations and redemption timing in its client agreement and fee/termination policies.

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
