About

Spencer Financial Strategies serves individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business entities and reports approximately $17,040,000 in discretionary assets under management with a two-advisor team. The firm offers discretionary investment supervisory services as well as non-discretionary project consulting and ongoing monitoring.

The firm develops an Investment Policy Statement for each client and applies a mix of fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis to construct diversified portfolios that may include exchange-listed securities, mutual funds, certificates of deposit, option strategies and margin where appropriate. Accounts are reviewed on a monthly basis, and clients receive written reporting and regular communications including a monthly newsletter and quarterly contacts.

Compared with typical peers, the firm discloses multiple non-advisory affiliations: the principal is licensed as a real estate broker through an affiliated entity and both advisory professionals are licensed to sell insurance products, with brochure disclosures about separate commission arrangements. The firm also offers no-cost educational seminars and notes it does not focus on high‑net‑worth clients, while one team member operates a separate travel‑planning business outside the advisory practice.

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.
