Fee-only fiduciary · Highlands, New Jersey
Wealth management for New Jersey families who think in generations
Independent wealth management, business advisory and real estate analysis for New Jersey families and owners, from one advisor who answers only to you.
No cost, no obligation. If we're not the right fit, we'll tell you.
Who we serve
Built for three kinds of clients
We keep the firm small on purpose so every client works directly with the founder.
Families building a legacy
Households with $150,000 or more to invest who want a long-term plan, tax-aware investing and heirs who are ready to steward what they inherit.
Business owners
Owners who need fractional CFO support, a clear view of what the business is worth and a plan for turning it into family wealth.
Real estate investors
Investors who want rigorous deal analysis and a portfolio that balances property with liquid, diversified assets.
Services
Three services, one integrated plan
Most clients start with investment management. Business owners and real estate investors add the advisory work they need. Everything is coordinated by one advisor.

Meet your advisor
Joseph Nardone, Founder
I started Longshore Wealth because families need an advisor who takes an oath to act in their best interest and tells them the truth, even when it's unpleasant.
I've founded and sold businesses, run a rental portfolio, and worked as a quantitative trader. I studied mechanical engineering and nuclear science at NYU.
How it works
A clear process from first call to ongoing care
Introductory call
20 minutes to learn about you and answer your questions. No pitch.
Discovery & proposal
We review your full picture and show you exactly what we'd recommend and what it costs.
Plan & implement
Accounts opened, portfolio built, plan documented. Nothing moves until you understand it.
Ongoing stewardship
Quarterly reviews, tax-time coordination and a direct line to your advisor.
