About

Vance Financial Planning is a fee-only registered investment adviser that provides wealth management, portfolio management, and financial planning to individuals and high‑net‑worth clients, and also offers project‑based and hourly consulting engagements. The firm manages roughly $23.1 million in client assets across a very small client base, delivering ongoing investment oversight and written financial plans where requested.

The investment process centers on establishing a personalized investment policy and asset allocation informed by modern portfolio theory, combining passive and active funds, individual securities, and, when appropriate, third‑party Outside Managers for portions of portfolios. Clients may receive discretionary or non‑discretionary management, periodic (quarterly) account reviews, and project‑based planning delivered over a defined engagement period with supporting follow‑up during that term.

Noteworthy distinctions include an operational affiliation with an owner‑operated public accounting and tax‑preparation practice, with disclosed cross‑referrals between the advisory and tax businesses while clients remain free to decline those services. The firm also departs from the common percentage‑of‑AUM billing model used by most peers, instead using flat annual wealth‑management agreements alongside project‑based and hourly planning options, a fee approach that is uncommon among independent advisers.

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
