Tax Planning

Tax Liability

The amount of federal tax that you pay can vary tremendously depending on how your investments are structured, where your money is held, and the timing of certain investment decisions.
We can work within your overall financial plan and with your tax professional to help you understand the effect of your financial choices on your tax bill. In some situations, we may be able to help you with strategies to help reduce your tax liability.

Investment Tax Planning

Tax planning considers the tax implications of individual, investment, or business decisions, usually with the goal of minimizing tax liability. While decisions are rarely made solely on their tax impact, you should have a working knowledge of the income or estate tax issues and costs involved. Life event planning focuses on the impact of significant events on your life and the stages of your overall investment plan.
A major goal of tax planning is minimizing federal income tax liability. This can be achieved by:

  • Reduce income through deferral
  • Review of cost basis
  • Gifting strategies
  • Tax loss harvesting
  • Deduction planning
  • Review of realized gains
  • Potential Roth conversion
  • Estate planning
  • Year-end strategies
  • Carry-forward losses
  • Tax withholding
  • Inheritance strategies
