Key Strategies We Consider

Tax Diversification of Accounts

We help diversify your portfolio across taxable, tax-deferred, and tax-free accounts—like Roth IRAs—to balance your tax exposure and maintain flexibility in retirement.

Capital Gains & Investment Placement

Our investment management approach places income-producing assets where they’re most tax-efficient. We also use tax-loss harvesting to help offset gains when opportunities arise.

Retirement Distribution Planning

We create personalized withdrawal strategies to manage your tax bracket year by year, including Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) planning that prevents penalties and unexpected tax bills.

Small Business or Military Tax Considerations

If you’re a business owner or part of the military community near Shaw AFB, we evaluate tax-advantaged options such as Solo 401(k)s, the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP), or SEP IRAs that can reduce taxable income while supporting long-term savings.

Strategies to Reduce Tax Liabilities

Tax-efficient investing isn’t just about lowering taxes today—it’s about creating a long-term strategy that keeps more of your money working for you over time. We help you understand the best ways to manage taxable and tax-advantaged accounts, optimize asset location, and plan for tax-efficient withdrawals.


Through careful planning, we ensure that every financial move you make aligns with both your short-term and long-term tax goals.
