Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about AdvisorFinder?

Find answers to common questions about how AdvisorFinder works, what types of advisors you can find, and how we keep your information safe.

AdvisorFinder is an online platform used by families and individuals to find a financial advisor for their unique needs. The service aggregates profiles from hundreds of financial advisors, allowing you to learn about their backgrounds, specializations, and the types of services they offer. AdvisorFinder is not a financial advisory service nor does it employ financial advisors.

You can think of AdvisorFinder as a search engine to find a financial advisor. Filter for different advisors based on what you need help with or other criteria you're looking for. Then, you can contact any advisor you choose. For this to happen, financial advisors create their own profiles.

For consumers, there is no fee. AdvisorFinder is free to use for anyone searching for financial advisors. Financial advisors, on the other hand, pay a subscription fee or contact inquiry fee to be listed on the platform.

On our platform, you can find a range of financial advisors from hundreds of firms across the United States. Whether you're looking for an advisor from a small, boutique firm or one from a large, nationally recognized institution, AdvisorFinder has you covered. You'll find professionals specializing in retirement planning, investment management, tax strategies, estate planning, college savings, and comprehensive financial planning, among other areas. Each advisor profile provides detailed information on their background, credentials, and areas of expertise.

Every financial advisor profile on our platform displays a link to their BrokerCheck and/or IAPD. These links include each advisor's CRD number, which is a unique identifier used by regulatory agencies. This is a way to check that an advisor meets industry standards and regulatory requirements. In some cases, you can verify an advisor's licenses or credentials on FINRA's BrokerCheck or the SEC's IAPD.

Yes, your data is safe. AdvisorFinder adheres to strict data protection policies and follows best practices to secure your information. Your details are never sold to any third party, and your personal information is only shared with an advisor when you choose to make contact or schedule a consultation.

No, your information is never sent to advisors without your explicit consent. It remains secure on our platform and is only shared when you decide to reach out to an advisor or book a consultation.

Getting started with AdvisorFinder is simple. First, visit our website and take the free personal assessment to find a financial advisor. Answer five questions about your financial needs and preferences. Then, review your personalized advisor results and compare detailed profiles. A step-by-step guide is available to help you understand how to effectively start a new financial advisory relationship and make an informed decision.

Absolutely. AdvisorFinder is designed with comparison in mind. You can view multiple advisor profiles side by side, comparing key details such as their areas of expertise, fees, and background information. Our filtering tools allow you to narrow down your options based on your specific needs, making it easier to weigh the pros and cons and select the advisor who best fits your financial goals.
