About

Wealth Alliance serves individuals, families, trusts, estates, retirement-plan participants and small businesses, with particular focus on business owners and executives transitioning to retirement and emerging-wealth professionals. The two-advisor firm manages roughly $64.5 million for about 266 clients and provides discretionary investment management alongside personal financial analysis and consulting, including the option to consider private placements and alternative investments where appropriate.

The firm implements a suite of 22 proprietary model portfolios spanning conservative to aggressive allocations, using ETFs, mutual funds, individual bonds, REITs, commodities, options and CDs, with alternative “satellite” holdings used for diversification. Investment selection combines quantitative ranking models with fundamental and valuation analysis, and portfolios are monitored continuously with periodic rebalancing on a discretionary basis.

Wealth Alliance is distinctive among peers for its accounting and tax-related capabilities: the firm’s principal holds an inactive CPA license and CFP credential, and an advisor provides enrolled-agent tax-preparation services through an affiliated tax practice, a relationship the brochure identifies as an affiliation with accounting/tax services. Advisors also maintain broker‑dealer registrations and insurance licenses that permit offering certain private placements, annuities and insurance products (which may generate commissions), and the firm discloses these dual roles and related conflicts while stating its fiduciary obligations.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

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. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
