About
Southern Wealth Builders provides investment management, project-based and ongoing financial planning, and retirement plan consulting and management to individual clients and employer plan sponsors. The fee-only firm manages discretionary accounts and reported $1,267,510 in discretionary assets under management as of December 31, 2024 while serving a small client base.
The firm’s investment process is grounded in asset-allocation principles and Modern Portfolio Theory, generally using mutual funds and ETFs and incorporating third‑party model portfolios or outside managers when appropriate. Accounts are typically managed on a discretionary basis with periodic (quarterly) reviews and the ability for clients to impose written investment restrictions.
Distinctive aspects include a formal offering of educational seminars and speaking engagements for organizations and the public—delivered virtually or in person, strictly educational in nature, and offered for fees ranging from $0 to $1,500. The firm also emphasizes retirement-plan work that can include fiduciary investment‑manager arrangements under ERISA and offers tailored planning services covering business planning, cash flow, college savings, tax, and estate considerations.

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.
