About
Smart Money Financial Advisors, LLC provides portfolio management, selection of other advisers, and financial planning primarily for individual and high‑net‑worth clients. The firm documents client goals and risk tolerance in a written Investment Policy Statement and offers asset allocation, asset selection, and ongoing portfolio monitoring as part of its services.
The firm’s stated investment approach draws on Modern Portfolio Theory and favors long‑term investing, with discretionary management and at least annual account reviews; clients receive quarterly custody statements from the chosen custodian. The brochure also discloses operational practices that affect implementation — for example, clients are required to use a specified custodian (Charles Schwab Advisor Services) and the firm may receive research or other soft‑dollar benefits.
The brochure highlights a few features that distinguish the firm from many peers: a principal is a licensed insurance agent who may offer commissionable insurance and annuity products and personnel operate a retirement‑education business; the firm also discloses fee‑sharing arrangements with third‑party managers (including a recommendation of Valor Capital Management) rather than only earning direct advisory fees. The firm further discloses the use of hypothetical performance in its materials and describes these outside activities and compensation arrangements as potential conflicts of interest that it seeks to manage.

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.
By using our service, you agree to Warmer's Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement and Privacy Policy. Logos provided by Logo.dev
