About

Three Oaks Partners Investment Counsel is a small, state-registered investment adviser that provides discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management, financial consulting, and a standalone retirement-focused financial planning program (TRIP). The firm serves individuals (including retirees), charitable organizations, and corporate clients and reports managing a modest base of client assets spread across a small number of accounts.

The firm tailors portfolios to client objectives and risk tolerance, offering model-based allocations alongside customized holdings and ongoing monitoring and rebalancing. Its stated investment toolkit is broad — ranging from traditional equities and fixed income to ETFs (including leveraged and digital-asset ETFs), options, futures, private placements, REITs and structured products — and its TRIP planning work explicitly addresses Social Security claiming, tax and IRMAA considerations.

What is notable about this adviser is its very small scale and principal-led structure combined with involvement in private investment vehicles and related businesses: the adviser is owned through a holding company that also controls an equipment‑leasing business and the principal is a general partner in a private fund that invests in commercial real estate and other opportunities. The brochure discloses that the firm sponsors or is affiliated with private investment entities (while stating it will not solicit advisory clients to invest) and includes an uncommon client-facing feature in its TRIP program — a refund option if the plan does not identify a specified level of projected value.

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
