Liz, Is there anything wrong with using a financial planner/advisor that is only registered out-of-state? We have her ADV form and her SEC and FINRA reports do not show any problems and she is a fee-only advisor. We have already used her for a one-time financial plan “check up”, but are now considering whether using her for ongoing retirement and investment management makes sense being that she is only registered out of state.
Probably not, unless you live in Florida or Texas, two states that require advisors be registered there.
