About

The firm is a single-advisor independent registered investment adviser that provides discretionary wealth management and portfolio management to individuals and high-net-worth individuals, supporting about 106 client relationships and offering financial planning and retirement-plan rollover advice. It acts as a fiduciary to clients and delivers continuous personal contact alongside implementation of investment strategies and occasional referrals to accountants or attorneys.

The firm’s investment approach is primarily long-term and portfolio-level, constructing diversified allocations with low-cost mutual funds and ETFs and supplementing those with individual stocks, bonds, options and unit investment trusts as appropriate; it employs a mix of fundamental, technical, cyclical, behavioral and charting analysis and will trade shorter-term when rebalancing, tax considerations, or market conditions warrant. Accounts are managed on a discretionary basis and monitored regularly, with clients able to place reasonable investment restrictions and receive periodic reporting from custodians.

Noteworthy for a solo independent adviser, the firm sponsors a wrap fee program that bundles transaction, custody and administrative costs into the advisory fee — a structure that is uncommon among peers and can affect the total cost sensitivity to trading activity. The firm also operates on an institutional platform relationship that provides software, trading and operational support, and the principal maintains a separate, limited insurance practice (approximately 5% of time), which the firm discloses as a potential conflict 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.
