About

Summit Wealth Group LLC provides wealth management and financial planning to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, businesses, and retirement plans. Services described in the brochure include discretionary investment management (offered in a wrap‑fee structure), standalone financial planning, family office and wealth planning, and retirement plan advisory (including 3(21) and 3(38) services), generally billed as a percentage of assets under management.

The firm states it customizes target allocations based on each client’s financial profile, goals, liquidity needs and risk tolerance, and uses a range of analytical approaches (asset allocation, fundamental, technical, quantitative and direct indexing) with tax‑loss harvesting when appropriate. Summit frequently implements strategies through third‑party money managers and sub‑advised models (including arrangements with SEI Investments Management Corporation) and monitors accounts on an ongoing basis with at least annual reviews.

Several operational features in the brochure are atypical for peers: some advisory representatives are also registered representatives of Purshe Kaplan Sterling Investments and certain advisory persons are licensed insurance professionals who receive commissions for insurance product sales, conflicts the firm discloses and manages. The brochure also discloses the firm’s use of client testimonials in advertising, a bundled wrap‑fee program, a secured‑loan program offered through Goldman Sachs Bank, and that Summit reported over $2.3 billion in discretionary AUM soon after forming in 2025.

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
