About

The firm serves individual and high‑net‑worth clients, as well as trusts, estates, business entities, charitable organizations and retirement plans, providing discretionary and non‑discretionary investment management alongside one‑time and ongoing financial planning and ad‑hoc consulting. In addition to advisory services, the firm offers tax preparation, bookkeeping, payroll and other tax‑related services that are provided separately from investment advice.

Investment advice is built around asset allocation informed by Modern Portfolio Theory and is tailored to each client’s goals, with portfolios typically composed of mutual funds, ETFs, stocks and bonds. The brochure discloses that the firm also employs options strategies—primarily covered calls—to manage downside risk and seek additional income in client accounts, a use of derivatives in separately managed accounts that the firm notes is uncommon among peers.

The firm operates with two advisors and manages roughly $10.9 million for a small client base, and it maintains standing letters of authorization on file for a number of client accounts, arrangements the brochure treats as limited‑custody relationships requiring specific controls. Both advisors are Enrolled Agents and licensed insurance agents and provide ancillary tax services alongside advisory work; the brochure discloses these services are separately billed and may present potential conflicts that are disclosed to clients.

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.
