About

Vantage Point Wealth Management provides discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management, financial planning, and consulting to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), corporations, and retirement plans. The firm also delivers ERISA 3(21) fiduciary services for qualified retirement plans, offers participant education and plan consulting, and sponsors a wrap fee program.

The firm implements portfolios using a mix of in‑house advice, third‑party managers, and multiple LPL Financial advisory platforms (including separately managed accounts, model portfolios, and an algorithm‑based Guided Wealth Portfolios service). Investment analysis may include both fundamental and technical approaches, and client accounts are reviewed on at least a quarterly basis with rebalancing and ongoing monitoring; VPWM also acts as a liaison to TPMs and monitors their performance for clients placed with those managers.

Distinctive features relative to many peers include the firm’s broad use of LPL’s program lineup (including an algorithmic managed service and a Small Market Solution for participant‑directed plans), its practice of receiving referral or ongoing compensation from third‑party managers, and the dual‑registration of some advisors as LPL registered representatives (with related transition assistance and third‑party economic benefits disclosed). The firm also limits proxy voting by having clients receive and vote their own proxies through the custodian.

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
