About

CORE Financial Advisors provides investment advisory services to individuals, high-net-worth individuals, trusts, estates, pension plans, and charitable organizations, offering comprehensive portfolio management, financial consulting, pension consulting, portfolio monitoring, and access to an institutional automated portfolio program. The firm manages both discretionary and non-discretionary assets and delivers ongoing asset management as well as one-time or hourly financial and pension consulting engagements.

The firm’s investment process uses fundamental and cyclical analysis and employs ETFs, mutual funds, individual stocks and bonds with both long- and short-term strategies, individualized account restrictions where feasible, and periodic rebalancing and reviews. CORE also offers portfolios through Schwab’s Institutional Intelligent Portfolios platform — retaining advisory responsibility while using the platform’s automated tools (including automatic rebalancing and tax-loss harvesting) and allowing clients to exclude up to three ETFs.

A distinctive feature of the firm is that some supervised persons are registered representatives of a broker-dealer (Purshe Kaplan Sterling Investments, Inc.) and are licensed insurance agents; they may offer commissionable securities and insurance products and, in certain cases, execute trades through the broker-dealer for Schwab-custodied assets. The firm discloses these dual roles and related conflicts of interest and also offers ancillary services such as tax preparation billed separately, combining automated institutional platform access with traditional portfolio and pension consulting.

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.
