About

Paragon Retirement Planning serves individual and high-net-worth clients, providing comprehensive and single-issue financial planning and consulting. The firm also arranges investment management by recommending or engaging unaffiliated sub-advisors and third‑party advisers rather than directly executing or managing client portfolios.

Paragon’s approach centers on tailored asset-allocation strategies implemented through model portfolios provided by its sub-advisors; the firm allocates among those strategies, monitors client objectives and conducts periodic reviews. Clients receive written financial plans when engaged, and Paragon maintains the ongoing client relationship while relying on sub-advisors to implement trades and manage day-to-day portfolio activity.

Noteworthy distinctions include that the firm’s owner is also an independent insurance agent who sells insurance products, including fixed annuities, for separate commissions — a relationship the brochure discloses and that the firm says it manages through stated conflict‑mitigation policies. It is also atypical for a team-sized adviser managing this level of assets to avoid direct portfolio execution, instead separating client-facing planning and oversight from third‑party portfolio management.

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.
