About
Darkhorse Advisor serves individual and high‑net‑worth clients with wealth management and comprehensive financial planning services. The firm provides discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management, tax and cash‑flow planning, and tailored financial planning work, typically for accounts at or above a stated $250,000 minimum (with exceptions considered).
The firm’s investment approach blends fundamental and technical analysis in an active, tax‑aware framework, allocating across mutual funds, ETFs and individual equity and debt securities. Portfolios are generally managed with a long‑term orientation but may include shorter‑term trades for rebalancing or tactical adjustments, and accounts are reviewed at least quarterly.
Noteworthy aspects include its small, single‑advisor structure with roughly 50 clients and about $36–39 million in assets under management, and an explicit custodial relationship with Charles Schwab that provides software and back‑office support (soft‑dollar benefits) the firm discloses as a potential conflict of interest. The firm also does not vote client proxies (clients receive proxies directly) and discloses multiple fee schedules for different strategy types, while not charging performance fees or accepting commission‑based compensation.

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.
