About
Strategic Asset Management serves individual investors across taxable, IRA, Roth IRA, 401(k) and education accounts, providing discretionary portfolio management and investment advice. The firm manages roughly $4.7 million for a small client base and administers accounts using custodial relationships chosen for client needs.
Investment decisions begin with fundamental screening of securities and sectors (balance sheet, cash flow, earnings, valuation) followed by a technical-analysis overlay to identify buy and sell points; positions are typically held for months to years unless market conditions warrant shorter holding periods. The firm uses individual stocks, mutual funds and ETFs in client portfolios and, after manager due diligence, may recommend private limited partnerships to accredited or sophisticated investors.
Notable features relative to peers include the firm’s willingness to include private limited partnerships for accredited clients and an option to hold “parked” non‑advised funds in short‑term U.S. Treasury bills without advisory fees. The brochure also describes operational practices intended to promote fairness—block trading to align execution prices and rotating order-entry among multiple custodians—and discloses that the sole principal holds a CFA charter and securities licenses while maintaining a separate real‑estate management interest.

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
