About
Center Peak Financial Services is a state‑registered investment adviser that offers discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, consulting, legacy position management, and retirement plan advisory services. The firm reports $65.45 million in assets under management, one advisor, and roughly 114 clients, and its fee model is an asset‑based (percentage‑of‑AUM) schedule billed monthly.
The firm describes a primarily equity‑ and fixed‑income oriented approach using strategic and tactical asset allocation, value investing, and long‑term holdings, and it may include alternative investments where suitable. It also provides written financial plans and consulting engagements that explicitly cover externally held products—such as variable life policies, annuities, employer‑sponsored retirement plans, and 529 plans—and retains discretion to manage or exclude legacy positions from billing.
Compared with many supported firms, Center Peak’s reported client mix and size are notable: its public filing lists a broad set of client types yet indicates it does not report serving non‑high‑net‑worth or high‑net‑worth individual clients, an uncommon composition for peers in this category. The firm also highlights retirement plan fiduciary work, a Certified Exit Planning Advisor credential, and a formal consulting service for externally held insurance and plan assets, which together suggest a stronger emphasis on business‑owner, plan‑sponsor, and externally‑advised account work than on typical retail individual relationships.

Not sure where to start?
We'll help you think it through – whether you ultimately need an advisor or not.
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.
