About

White Sand Wealth Management is a five-advisor registered investment adviser managing about $172.4 million for roughly 188 clients. The firm serves individuals and high-net-worth clients as well as pension and profit-sharing plans and other businesses, providing discretionary investment management, project-based financial plans, and ongoing subscription planning services, with access to third‑party managers when appropriate.

WSWM blends passive and active management and uses both fundamental and technical analysis to construct individualized portfolios aligned with clients’ objectives, tax considerations, and documented investment policy statements. The firm conducts periodic account reviews, delivers regular written reporting, and monitors outside managers’ holdings, strategies, and compliance as part of its oversight process.

Notably, WSWM reports serving state or municipal government–type clients and pension plans, a client segment that is relatively uncommon for teams of this size, and the firm’s staff includes professionals with trust and retirement credentials (CTFA, CISP) and Social Security planning expertise. The advisors’ prior bank and trust‑division experience, combined with a mix of subscription, project, and hourly planning arrangements, differentiates how the firm structures services compared with many peers.

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
