About
Platt Investment Counsel, LLC provides discretionary portfolio management to individuals, high net worth clients, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business entities, managing $153,648,538 in discretionary assets as of 12/31/2025. Services are delivered through model-based core portfolios and include ongoing monitoring, quarterly reporting and direct fee billing from client custodial accounts.
The firm’s investment approach emphasizes tactical asset allocation across equities, fixed income and cash based on economic-cycle positioning, typically implemented with exchange-traded funds and no-load mutual funds while permitting occasional individual securities. Portfolios are managed on a discretionary basis with quarterly reviews, annual suitability checks, regular client communications (including monthly market updates), and the ability for clients to impose reasonable investment restrictions.
What distinguishes the firm from many peers is its work with charitable organizations and other institutional-type clients in addition to individual households, and its operational role that includes acting as trustee or having custodial access for certain client accounts and employer-sponsored plan portals. The firm also maintains a $500,000 minimum account guideline and does not vote client proxies, with annual surprise examinations performed when custody exists.

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
