About

Croft Financial Planning provides fee‑only financial planning to individuals, families, businesses, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and, occasionally, banking or thrift institution clients. Its services include comprehensive and project-based financial plans, on‑demand consultations, retirement and estate planning, business planning, cash flow and debt management, investment analysis, and educational seminars.

Advice is delivered on an hourly or fixed‑project basis and typically culminates in a written plan or report; clients are responsible for implementing recommendations because the firm does not manage client assets or accept custody. When making securities recommendations within planning engagements, the firm draws on fundamental analysis and modern portfolio theory and may recommend passive, active, or blended fund strategies.

Relative to many independent advisers, the firm is uncommon in not offering portfolio management or charging percentage‑of‑AUM fees, and it supplements client work with public and organizational seminars and speaking engagements. The firm’s principal holds multiple professional designations (CFP®, CFA®, CTFA) and the practice occasionally provides consulting to other financial professionals, reflecting a planning‑focused and educator‑oriented practice.

Croft Financial Planning

Brett is an enthusiastic ADVICE-ONLY financial planner who believes that how a client pays for advice matters. The hourly advice-only approach is the most conflict free model available to clients because it is free from product sales, endless A.U.M. fees, and other hidden fees and agendas. Brett founded Croft Financial Planning, LLC to create a firm aligned with his client's best interests. He has over 15 years experience providing financial advice. Brett previously served as a Senior Wealth Manager at Manchester Capital Management, a boutique multi-family office providing comprehensive financial planning and investment management to ultra-high-net-worth families. Prior to that, he worked at Fidelity Investments, helping clients navigate their financial goals with personalized planning solutions. Brett enjoys being a financial planner and delving into technical subjects while always trying to keep the big picture in mind: "who are the people important to you and what are you trying to accomplish?" Earlier in his career, Brett worked as an engineer and holds both a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science in Engineering as well as an MBA. His analytical background and problem-solving expertise inform his thoughtful and precise approach to financial planning. When he’s not working, Brett enjoys exploring the outdoors with his wife of 30 years and their two grown children.

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.
