Who We Are

Who We Are

West Invest was founded by Marty West in April 2000. Marty found that by creating his own company it allowed him the freedom to choose the people he works with and the flexibility to provide any financial strategies for his clients. He enjoyed the opportunity to work out of his home office for 18 years, giving him time to be with his family and meet with clients where they preferred.

With a client comes first mentality, the West Invest team has grown in the past few years to include Marty’s three children, Blair, Emily, and Audrey.

West Invest was also happy to partner with Steven Avery from Harbor Bell Financial in 2020, as well as Ed Williams from Bayport Financial 2021.With all advisors having different backgrounds in the business, it allows them to leverage each other’s knowledge for the benefit of their clients.
