About

The firm serves individual investors, families, and their trusts and estates, offering hourly, fee-only financial planning and investment consultation alongside discretionary investment management and retirement-plan rollover advice. It manages roughly $91 million for about 177 client relationships and provides both scheduled reviews and a “real‑time” same‑day planning option for focused issues.

The investment approach is grounded in Modern Portfolio Theory with a long‑term, buy‑and‑hold framework, periodic rebalancing, and asset allocation set by an investment policy statement tailored to client objectives and risk tolerance. The firm uses fundamental analysis and emphasizes ETF/index exposures, tax‑efficiency considerations (including qualified dividend income), and implements portfolios via a combination of its own supervisory accounts and a third‑party subadviser that provides ETF portfolio management and rebalancing.

Distinctive features include operating as a solo, fee‑only adviser while maintaining multiple offices and combining an on‑demand hourly planning model with discretionary AUM services implemented partly through a robo‑style subadviser — a hybrid that is less common among independent single‑advisor firms. The principal also holds insurance licenses and may offer insurance products, a relationship the firm discloses and says it will address up front to manage potential conflicts of interest.

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.
