Private Wealth Management
About Faircourt Partners
Built by someone who got tired of watching it done wrong.
Faircourt Partners has spent years as a fiduciary advisor in the institutional retirement space — managing over $3 billion in assets, serving clients from private equity firms to nonprofits to small businesses. Our core conviction has never changed: the investor always comes first.
The private wealth management division was built on that same conviction — applied to individuals, families, and business owners navigating significant, often complex, financial decisions.
We are not a product shop. We are not a referral machine. We are a boutique firm with institutional infrastructure and a genuine obligation to the people who trust us with their wealth.
Your Wealth Deserves Better Than What You’ve Been Told.
The wealth management industry has a conflict of interest problem. Most firms are built to distribute products, collect fees, and keep you comfortable enough not to ask questions.
We’re built differently.
Faircourt Partners is an independent, SEC-registered RIA. We have one obligation — to you. Not to a parent company. Not to a fund manager. Not to a trading desk with preferred products and revenue targets.
Just you.
How We Work
We start with a full picture. Before we recommend anything, we understand where you are — your holdings, your tax situation, your goals, and what your current advisor may or may not be doing well.
Most investors are surprised by what the analysis reveals. The stated fees in your portfolio documents are only one part of the cost. Turnover inside your funds — the constant buying and selling triggered by other investors moving money in and out — creates a layer of transaction cost that is rarely disclosed and almost never discussed. Overlap between funds means you may be paying a dozen different managers to own the same stocks simultaneously. And the tax drag created by embedded capital gains inside funds you didn’t even own when those gains were generated can cost you real money in years where your own portfolio lost value.
We find all of it. We explain it clearly. And we build a strategy designed to eliminate it.
We coordinate across your full financial picture — tax strategy, estate planning, liquidity events, business transitions. We work alongside your CPA, your attorney, and your other advisors to make sure everything is aligned.
Who We Work Best With
We work with people who have meaningful complexity and want a partner who can handle it — and be honest about it.
- Business owners navigating a liquidity event
- High-income professionals with significant tax exposure
- Families with concentrated positions or legacy assets
- Anyone who suspects they are overpaying and underserved
Here is a number worth considering: only 3,600 stocks trade in the United States. If your portfolio holds 20 or 30 funds, and each fund owns thousands of positions, the math produces something closer to 50,000 or 100,000 holdings on paper — the vast majority of which are duplicates. That is not diversification. That is friction. And you are paying for every layer of it.
