Getting Things Done
We created a firm that invests in, and embraces, advanced technology solutions that provide our clients transparency and access to a myriad of solutions and strategies tailored to their specific life goals. Little House’s integrated technology platform offers scalability and standardization to promote an environment of real-time data collection, analytics, and analysis to evaluate, then adapt to, the changing economic landscape impacting your longer-term goals.

Our Story

It was time to change

In 2017, we launched Little House Capital with a vision to build a firm that understood financial/estate planning supported by an institutionally inspired in-house portfolio management, investment research, and trading operation. Our aim was to remove redundant costs by creating our own in-house investment capabilities, thereby eliminating a cost layer typically charged by other Advisors. The next generation of wealth management firms will require deep-rooted investment management expertise to measure their results against pre-determined, risk-adjusted outcomes over time.

Today’s Capital management firms must offer their clients access to fundamental research, market analysis, and risk management to formulate a strategy that invests in individual stocks, bonds, or perhaps other alternative investments. Providing proprietary content validates our tactical investment actions while promoting a transparent framework designed to benefit our clients.

Our founder served as the Chief Investment Officer and Regional Manager at a large wealth management company, was an institutionally ranked senior analyst at Banc of America Merrill Lynch and worked as a CPA for one of The Big 4 accounting firms (PricewaterhouseCoopers). This combined Wall Street and wealth management expertise is the foundation on which Little House was built.

Why Us?

Grit and determination

Conviction requires determination to replicate your successes and the maturity to admit and then further analyze your failures. Confidence requires arduous work, knowledge, and then the experience to execute. All of Little House’s solutions begin with this assumption.

Capital versus Advisory

Often asked, “Why did you name the firm Little House Capital vs. Little House Advisory?”

Capital Management requires extensive portfolio and trading systems to measure and verify our investment actions. This rather complex feedback loop is essential in keeping us well-informed of the global events that impact our clients’ investment holdings. This is Capital Management.

Defining Little House’s investment strategies, products, and risk objectives up-front provides a standardized framework to measure actual performance among our clients’ strategies and stated risk objective. Imagine if your Advisor had to trade hundreds of investment accounts in seconds. What accounts were traded first? Who got what price? Our investment infrastructure augments the Advisor who often formulates the financial plan for our clients while the investment results are integrated into the plan. This is Advisory.

Significant monetary investment and experience is required to engineer a Portfolio Management Accounting Systems (PMAS) and block trading operation to ensure that our research and trading actions are performed equally across the entire complex. Defining Little House’s investment strategies, products, and risk objectives up-front provides a standardized framework across our platform to measure outcomes versus the stated objective.
