About
Financial Consulting Associates is a small, state-registered, fee‑only advisory run by a single principal and serves individual investors (including IRAs and some small-business retirement accounts). As of December 31, 2025 the firm managed about $33.1 million in discretionary client assets across 28 accounts and also offers tax preparation and planning services on a limited basis.
The firm’s investment management is discretionary and centered on tailored portfolios built from a relatively concentrated menu of open‑end, no‑load mutual funds; the adviser uses proprietary software to monitor a broad universe of funds but typically deploys around two dozen funds per client and actively trades mutual funds rather than following a strict buy‑and‑hold approach. Portfolios are adjusted according to client suitability and the adviser’s economic outlook, with ongoing monitoring and quarterly reporting to clients.
Notable differences from many peers include the principal’s professional credentials (CFP®, EA, ARA), a practice that has been essentially closed to new clients in recent years, and a planned retirement from asset management and tax services in 2026 with arrangements being made for continuation for clients who wish to remain served. The firm also declines to vote proxies on clients’ behalf, conducts no outward marketing (new clients are generally considered only by referral), and maintains grandfathered client arrangements and longevity discounts for long‑standing accounts.

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.
