About

The firm advises individual clients—including both non‑retail and high‑net‑worth households—and provides advisory services to businesses and nonprofit organizations, delivering fee‑only financial planning, investment management, and retirement-plan consulting. Services include general and goal‑specific financial plans, ongoing investment supervisory services, and organization-focused consulting such as retirement plan design.

Its workflow is planning‑driven: the advisor conducts data gathering and goal setting, identifies strengths and concerns, produces a written plan, and then implements investment supervision once a plan is accepted. Investment supervision may be provided on a discretionary or non‑discretionary basis and, for organizational clients, includes developing an investment policy statement, asset allocation studies, and a structured money‑manager search.

The firm is small by assets and staffing yet highlights a long tenured principal with prior experience forming an affiliation of independent advisors and holding a senior role at a trust company—background elements that are less common among similarly sized RIAs. The brochure also emphasizes a fee‑only model with both project/hourly planning options and active involvement in nonprofit investment committees, reflecting a combination of institutional experience and community engagement that distinguishes the practice.

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.
