Tax Planning. Forward Looking.
We are here to support you with tax advice throughout the year…not just at tax time. You can count on True Wealth for strategic advice that leads to smart tax decisions all year long. We take the time to understand your personal tax situation to make sure you get the refund you deserve or minimize your tax burden as much as possible.
Your tax liability can be impacted by the investments in your portfolio. Whether you’re a seasoned investor or just starting your investment journey, understanding the basics of tax-efficient investing is essential. Investing wisely is about more than picking the right stocks or funds. It’s also about optimizing your returns by managing taxes.
Our tax planning services complement True Wealth’s Investment Management Services. We use tax planning to align different types of assets within your portfolio to strategically place investments in accounts that offer the most tax benefits.
- Proactive Planning. At True Wealth “proactive” does not mean looking back on what happened in the prior year. Rather, we take a multi-year approach to understand where you are today and where you want to go. Our tax planning helps mitigate taxes and maximize your after-tax wealth—while remaining in full compliance with IRS statutes.
- Tax Bracket Management. Your tax rate is likely to change over time. Events such as a large bonus, a promotion, entering retirement, selling a business, or beginning Required Minimum Distributions can all affect your tax rate. By taking a multi-year view of how income, deductions, and investment activity may interact with your tax situation, we help smooth these transitions and aim to reduce your lifetime tax burden through thoughtful planning.
- Income Targeting. In retirement, you gain meaningful flexibility over how and when your income is taxed. By coordinating your spending needs with your investment and tax-planning strategy, we design a tax-smart withdrawal plan with specific yearly income targets. While multi-year planning guides the overall path, income targeting provides the precision needed to fine-tune your tax strategy year by year — helping your money work harder and last longer.
- Roth Conversions. Converting tax-deferred assets to a tax-free Roth account can create meaningful long-term tax advantages — particularly in low-income years, during early retirement, or when room exists to reach your targeted income level. With a multi-year approach and thoughtful bracket management, we evaluate if and when a conversion is beneficial and ensure the strategy aligns with your broader retirement and estate-planning goals.
- Tax-Aware Investing. It’s not what you earn before taxes but what you keep after taxes that matters most. We incorporate tax-aware investing into your portfolio and its ongoing management by evaluating how investment strategy, investment structure, trading decisions, account types, and the timing of gains or losses may impact after-tax returns. Our goal is to implement your investments in a way that supports your broader financial plan while maximizing tax efficiency.
