About

Motiv8 Investments LLC provides portfolio management and financial planning services to a mix of individual clients (including high-net-worth individuals), pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and corporate entities. The firm offers both discretionary and non-discretionary portfolio management, broad-based written financial plans, targeted consulting (for example, retirement or 401(k) platform due diligence), and periodic educational seminars and workshops.

Investment advice is customized to each client’s goals and risk tolerance and can include allocations to equities, ETFs, mutual funds, U.S. government and corporate debt, municipal securities and, in limited cases, private partnerships in real assets. Motiv8 monitors accounts continuously and rebalances as needed, applies a mix of fundamental, technical, cyclical and charting analysis, and uses third-party platforms to manage held-away retirement participant accounts without taking custody.

The firm’s structure and operations include several features that distinguish it from many peers: it operates across multiple offices, discloses affiliations with related entities that provide insurance wholesaling and agency services as well as owned real-estate entities, and notes that associated persons are licensed to sell insurance and may receive commissions, a disclosed conflict of interest. Motiv8 also participates in an institutional custodial program that yields research and practice-management benefits and discloses the use of third‑party promoters for client referrals and standing transfer authorizations, operational practices that are less common among similar team firms.
