About

T. Anton Investment House, Inc. provides financial planning and discretionary portfolio management to individuals (including high-net-worth clients) and to a range of institutional clients such as corporations, pension and profit-sharing plans, charitable organizations, estates and trusts, managing approximately $366,642,843 across about 328 client relationships. Services explicitly include financial planning, portfolio management for individuals and businesses, and retirement plan rollover recommendations.

The firm bases its investment process on fundamental (bottom-up) analysis and a long-term holding strategy, assigning clients to proprietary model portfolios that range from “High Growth 100%” (100% equities) through various growth and balanced mixes to “Conservative Balanced 50/50,” with model selection driven by objectives, risk tolerance, tax sensitivities and distribution needs. It implements strategies on a discretionary basis, routinely uses mutual funds to achieve allocations while also managing individual stocks and bonds, and provides periodic reporting and annual reviews.

Noteworthy distinctions include a relatively large asset base managed by a small advisory team and the use of in-house proprietary models rather than recommending outside managers, along with a typical account minimum of $800,000 (with smaller accounts considered case-by-case). The firm also uses direct billing to custodians for advisory fees (a recognized form of custody), discloses a fiduciary process for retirement rollover advice, does not participate in wrap-fee programs or receive soft-dollar benefits or 12b-1 fees, and does not accept proxy-voting authority for client securities.

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.
