Guiding You to Financial Freedom

Tax Planning Strategies

We like to say, “It’s not how much you make, it’s how much you keep.”  Tax planning is not something you do on April 15th.  All you’re doing is turning in your scorecard – it’s called a 1040.  A tax planning strategy is something you create for the year, and throughout your life.  In some cases, our recommendations may help you today, while others are designed to help you later in life.  In fact, it’s remarkable how much of a high percentage of our clients (and likely middle and upper middle class Americans) are actually in a lower marginal income tax bracket today than they will be in retirement. We aren't here to replace your accountant, but instead work with them to create your personalized tax planning strategies.

Tax-Efficient Portfolio Management: A thorough understanding of your tax situation puts me in a better position to understand your overall personal finances. That can allow us to discuss different approaches, which may lead to a more tax-efficient investment strategy.

Coordination of Tax Strategies with Your CPA: Having a clear understanding of your tax situation allows me to collaborate effectively with your certified public accountant (CPA). A well-structured financial strategy should take into account your tax situation as well as a variety of other factors.

Ongoing Tax Management: Tax laws and regulations are constantly changing. By reviewing your tax returns periodically, I can show you potential adjustments in your financial strategy that may help address new laws and regulation.
