About

RED Seven provides comprehensive financial planning and discretionary portfolio management to individuals, high-net-worth clients, pension and profit-sharing plans, and charitable organizations. Its services include retirement, tax and insurance planning, construction of model portfolios, ongoing portfolio monitoring, and advisory work for multi-employer retirement plans and wrap-fee platforms.

The firm tailors portfolios to individual goals, risk tolerance and time horizon, employing a mix of fundamental and technical analysis and both long- and short-term trading strategies, with at least quarterly account reviews. RED Seven generally manages accounts on a discretionary basis, uses third-party custodians (primarily recommending Goldman Sachs), and may place clients on third‑party manager platforms while using model portfolios and regular rebalancing.

Distinctive among peers, RED Seven discloses an affiliation with a pension consultant and relationships with accounting and tax-preparation professionals, including enrolled agents who provide tax services through an associated accounting group and devote substantial monthly hours to that activity. The firm also discloses a solicitor/referral agreement with a third‑party investment platform that provides ongoing referral compensation and notes its transition to SEC registration in 2026, all of which clients should consider when evaluating recommendations.

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
