About
Serene Financial Solutions advises individuals, families, and small-business owners, including entrepreneurs, and provides portfolio management, comprehensive financial planning, financial consulting, educational seminars and workshops, and tax preparation services. The firm offers both discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management alongside stand‑alone and integrated tax compliance and preparation services delivered by enrolled agents.
The firm’s investment approach blends passive and active management within a Modern Portfolio Theory framework, using a core‑satellite structure, global diversification, monthly account reviews, and rebalancing on a three‑ to twelve‑month cadence. Serene requires a written financial plan prior to providing portfolio management and manages clients’ taxable and retirement accounts on an aggregate basis to address tax efficiency.
Compared with many independent advisers, Serene is notable for operating a tax preparation practice staffed by enrolled agents and for regularly delivering educational seminars and workshops, services that are uncommon among peers. The firm also routinely serves small‑business clients with business accounting, payroll, and succession planning support and generally does not rely on percentage‑of‑assets‑under‑management billing, instead using fixed, monthly, hourly, and stand‑alone fee arrangements.

Forms ADV
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
