About
Templeton Financial Services is a registered investment advisor that provides discretionary, fee-only portfolio management to individuals, institutional entities, trusts, estates and similar clients. The brochure identifies the firm’s core offering as conservative, income-focused management, with portfolios primarily comprised of tax-exempt and taxable municipal securities and selective use of closed-end funds and higher-yield bonds.
The firm describes an investment approach that tailors portfolio weighting and duration to each client’s objectives and risk tolerance, employing both long- and short-term purchases while managing primarily small lot fixed-income positions. Templeton documents specific allocation and trading policies—state-preference, duration and maturity priorities, pro-rata allocation, and occasional cross-trades—and states it provides ongoing account reviews and periodic reports that can include performance summaries.
Compared with many peers, Templeton emphasizes a concentrated municipal-bond focus and a client base aligned with higher account minimums (the brochure cites a $2,000,000 minimum for direct clients), which narrows its typical client profile toward wealthier investors. The brochure also points readers to third‑party disclosure (the SEC adviserinfo site) and notes reporting practices around account performance and a trade-error policy under which the firm reimburses client losses but does not credit accounts for trade gains, details that are atypical among similar advisers.

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
