What does “fee-only” actually mean?

Fee-only means the only money we make comes directly from you: never from commissions, product sales, or kickbacks. It removes the conflict of interest baked into a lot of the industry, so our advice is accountable only to you.

A fiduciary is legally and ethically required to put your interests first. As an independent RIA, Hunt Wealth acts as a fiduciary at all times, not just when it's convenient.

Do I need a minimum net worth to work with you?

No. Hunt Wealth was built for professionals still building wealth. If you're earning well and ready to be intentional about your money, you're exactly who we're here for.

Can we work together if I'm not in Tampa?

Absolutely. We're a modern, virtual-first firm and work with clients across the country. If you're in Tampa or St. Pete, we're happy to meet locally too.

How much does it cost?

Investment management is 1% of assets under management (an annual fee charged monthly). Financial planning is $200/month, waived once your accounts with us total over $500k. That's the whole pricing model. No hidden fees.

What happens on the intro call?

It's a relaxed 30-minute conversation about your goals and your financial picture, and a chance to see if we're a good fit. There's no obligation and no sales pitch.

A wedding celebration in Tampa, the kind of life moment that comes with big financial questions.

Life’s biggest moments are financial ones

The best moments in life bring big changes, and questions no one taught you how to answer.

The questions that bring people here

“Should I exercise my options now?”

Equity comp, RSUs, and the tax bill nobody warned you about.

Equity compensation

“Am I even saving enough?”

A career on the rise, and no system tying it all together.

Financial planning

“Why is my tax bill so high?”

April surprises are optional.

Tax planning

“Roth or pre-tax?”

The answer depends on brackets, not vibes.

Retirement & 401(k)

“What about my old 401(k)s?”

Three jobs, four accounts, zero strategy.

Retirement & 401(k)

“Am I doing this right?”

Buying a home, starting a family, and a lot riding on it.

Who we serve

“Do we finally need a will?”

If people count on you, yes. We make it painless.

Estate & insurance

“Is my company stock too big a bet?”

Your job and your portfolio shouldn't ride on one ticker.

The financial advice industry can be pretty old fashioned. We take a modern approach without the product pushing or jargon. Just personalized advice that evolves with you.

No commissions.

No products pushed.

No account minimums to start.

No jargon-filled quarterly PDFs.

The long view

Wealth is terrain, not a finish line.

Your income, taxes, equity comp, and goals are all moving targets. A good plan acts as a map that keeps up with them and gets redrawn as the terrain changes.

Hi, I’m Austin Hunt.

CFP®•CIMA®•Fee-only fiduciary•Tampa, FL

Before Hunt Wealth, I spent years advising financial advisors across the country on how to allocate client assets and run tax strategy. But I didn’t just want to advise other advisors. I wanted to work directly with the people doing the real work: building careers, families, and futures.

If I’m your advisor, I plan to be your advisor for the next few decades, not hand you off right when your plan starts to matter.

Everyone deserves a real plan

What your plan actually covers.

Whether you're still building wealth or ready to make your net worth work harder, real planning means the whole picture, not just your investments.

Goals & values

Whether it's retirement, buying a home, a wedding, kids, or your next big vacation, we plan for the whole journey.

Cash flow

Reverse budgeting figures out what you should be saving, investing, and spending (without tracking every latte).

Investments

Usually the engine driving your plan forward. We keep it aligned with your risk tolerance, your goals, and your tax bill.

Taxes

Mysterious and important. We review last year's return and start projecting next year's liability before it surprises you.

Estate

If you get hit by a bus, what's going to happen to your loved ones? We'll help make sure everything is in place in the event of the worst-case scenario.

Insurance

Like “sales,” this can feel like a gross word. We're not here to sell you a policy, just to make sure you're actually covered.

The Route Plan

A modern way to plan, mapped in four steps.

Simple, transparent, and built around you. Here's exactly how we go from hello to a plan that's working for you.

See if we're a fit

Step 01 · Basecamp

Intro call

A relaxed 30-minute call to get to know each other and see if we're a fit. First dates can be awkward, but hopefully it's the start of a long, good relationship. No obligation, no pitch.

Step 02 · Mapping

Building your plan

We dig into your goals, cash flow, investments, and taxes to draw a clear roadmap for your financial life. It might take a few meetings. You can't rush a good map.

Step 03 · Ascent

Implementation

This is where you become a client. We handle the paperwork, move accounts over, and start putting the plan to work.

Step 04 · The Long Trail

Ongoing guidance

You've got a trusted advisor in your corner as life changes. We meet at least once a year, and you can reach out whenever you need. That's the whole point.

The Route Plan

Four waypoints, one route.

We named it because the shape is the point: you always know where you are, where you're headed, and what the next turn is. When the terrain moves, the route gets redrawn.
