Tax Planning
We prefer to work collaboratively with your accountant to implement pre-and-post tax portfolios to help you have greater flexibility over the course of your life. As your fiduciary, we believe our role is to help you in every facet of your financial life, not just investments.
Common tax-related tasks:
Collect and review tax returns; collaborate with accountant as needed.
Design a tax-efficient portfolio to reduce tax liability; create an efficient distribution plan when appropriate.
Determine when to harvest gains and losses inside the portfolio.
Structure your portfolio to maximize after-tax return.
Determine which investments are best held in after-tax accounts versus 401K or IRA accounts.
Navigate employer stock options and other employer compensation plans.
Examine ways to lower taxes now and in future years.
Stay current on tax law changes to determine how they impact you.
Review the impact of healthcare reforms or Medicare on your taxes.
Consider Roth conversion, or Backdoor Roth.
Examine the possibility of the zero percent capital gain rate.
