About
DeStefano Wealth Management is a state-registered independent advisory firm that provides personalized investment management and ongoing comprehensive financial planning to individual and high‑net‑worth clients. The firm manages roughly $38 million across a small number of client relationships and offers tailored services that cover retirement planning, estate planning, cash‑flow and business planning, and investment analysis.
The firm’s investment process is grounded in modern portfolio theory and largely implemented through passive building blocks such as index mutual funds and ETFs, while fundamental analysis is used to assess holdings and inform allocation decisions. Portfolios are supervised on an ongoing basis with regular reviews tied to the broader financial planning relationship; clients receive written or electronic financial plans and annual plan updates as part of that engagement.
Notable features include a practice model that bundles investment management with an ongoing comprehensive planning engagement and a willingness to provide planning as part of the managed‑asset relationship in many cases. The firm typically recommends a major custodial platform that provides institutional brokerage services and research support, does not engage in aggregated block trading for multiple accounts, and generally limits custody to fee‑withdrawal arrangements.

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.
By using our service, you agree to Warmer's Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement and Privacy Policy. Logos provided by Logo.dev
