About

Granite Wealth Management provides discretionary investment management, financial planning, and consulting to individuals, business entities, and charitable organizations. The firm offers individualized portfolio management and access to third‑party model strategies through its custodian, and it does not impose a minimum account size.

The firm says it tailors portfolios to each client’s goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance and conducts regular account reviews and monitoring; its analytical methods include fundamental, technical, bottom‑up and top‑down approaches and it employs standard strategies such as diversification and asset allocation. Engagements may combine advisor‑managed accounts and model portfolios, and Granite Wealth generally manages assets on a discretionary basis when clients grant written authority.

Compared with many peers, Granite Wealth’s brochure discloses two noteworthy items: the firm uses client testimonials in its advertising (a relatively uncommon practice) and its client base is described as primarily non‑high‑net‑worth individuals rather than emphasizing HNW households. The brochure also discloses that a firm principal is separately licensed to sell insurance (creating a commission‑related conflict disclosed to clients) and that a principal resolved a prior FINRA action and remains subject to conditional state registration and heightened supervision.

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.
