About
Fortress Financial Management provides discretionary investment management and project-based financial planning to individuals, small business owners, and small-business retirement plans. The firm advises on publicly traded equities, corporate and government bonds, ETFs, mutual funds and options while excluding highly speculative instruments and day-trading strategies.
FFM applies a proprietary fundamental-analysis methodology and a tax-aware, long-term buy-and-hold approach, typically exercising full discretionary authority and performing formal portfolio reviews quarterly. Financial planning is delivered as a written, hourly-engagement product (billed at $350 per hour) and the firm may waive planning fees if the client subsequently engages AUM services.
The brochure discloses that the firm’s principals are also 50% owners of an affiliated accounting practice and devote the majority of their professional time to that business, an affiliation and time-allocation that is uncommon for investment managers. At the time of the filing the firm was newly formed with no assets under management, does not take custody or performance-based fees, and emphasizes operational arrangements (e.g., selecting a broker-dealer and block trading) that reflect a small, practice-focused business model rather than a traditional institutional manager.

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.
