Tax Planning in Reno

We all want financial peace of mind in our future. At TCI, one way we achieve this for our clients is through proper tax planning, often referred to as being tax efficient. Since we are focused on fulfilling long-term goals, one of the last surprises we want  you to receive is an unexpected tax bill. While you are taking advantage of all the Reno area has to offer, we want you to focus on the breathtaking place we call home. Whether you’re skiing, mountain biking, or hiking, our purpose is providing you the peace of mind of knowing that your financial plan is in good hands.

Tax Planning is Part of TCI's Roots

In 1984, Douglas L. Nelson CPA, PFS, with his partners, opened Ashley Quinn Nelson Consultants and CPAs in the heart of Incline Village at Tahoe Boulevard and Country Club Drive. Douglas’ firm specialized in tax planning for individuals, families and businesses. His clients noticed the integrity he brought to their accounting needs and eventually, the conversation shifted to other financial topics, such as wealth management.

 

Douglas was not impressed with the advice his clients received from some advisors, and this got him thinking. Could he bring the ethics of a CPA to wealth management? Within a couple years, Douglas transitioned from being a CPA to being a wealth advisor. Yet, he never lost sight of his CPA roots, utilizing his accounting knowledge in every plan he built. Doug is now based out of TCI’s Tucson office. Now, he and TCI  bring  tax efficiency strategies to our clients in the Reno area.

Tax Optimization in Reno

While we’re not CPAs, part of our comprehensive approach to wealth management involves suggesting ways to optimize your taxes, because financial plans and tax planning go hand in hand. By making recommendations, we try to plan for the future. As early as possible, we want to identify any tax liabilities your plan may have.  For example, if you incur any capital gains taxes, we can  help you offset them by donating to one of Reno’s remarkable nonprofits. Mapping out your tax future is one of the many ways we help plan your financial future. We want to get to know you and your goals. Then, we can build a financial plan that utilizes tax strategies to help you achieve your goals.

Our Tax Planning Approach

Our approach to tax planning is straightforward and time-tested, and our strategies are unique and personal. First and foremost, your current economic situation, as well as your future goals as a client, are always at the forefront. Every decision we make is centered on you. The second is based on real-time tax data with the goal of keeping as much money in your pocket as possible. Our method is fact-driven and data-focused, using high-level tax expertise you and your family can trust.

TCI's Long-Term Approach

In the ever-evolving financial landscape, making well-informed decisions that stand the test of time is paramount. This is why we embrace a long-term investment philosophy as the foundation to each investment strategy we build. Investing, by definition, is a long-term exercise. It’s not about what happened yesterday or what may happen in the next month or so. For most people, it’s about how to realize goals over a 25 to 30-year period.

 

Each investment strategy we build has guard rails on it attempting to limit impacts from market volatility. Our steadfast, long-term approach is time tested, helping ensure your investments remain in harmony with your objectives.

Wealth Management Tailored to You

We understand that one size does not fit all when it comes to wealth management. Your financial journey is unique, and your investment strategy should reflect that. Our advisors are dedicated to tailoring wealth management solutions to your specific circumstances and objectives.

 

Whether you’re retiring tomorrow or 30 years from now, we’ll work with you to construct a personalized investment plan. Our goal is to optimize your portfolio’s performance to fund your long-term financial goals. We’re committed to providing transparent advice and being your fiduciary. Our team is working diligently to protect and grow your wealth, providing you with the peace of mind that your financial future is in capable hands.

Understand Your Coverage

There are countless insurance plans available. It’s overwhelming to know where to start and who has your best interest at hand. Before talking to someone, make sure you have a good grasp on your current insurance coverage. Here is a “to do” list as you start your insurance journey.

  1. Review each of your insurance plans.
  2. If you can identify gaps in coverage, act sooner rather than later. Do not wait for a significant event to happen to discover the insurance coverage you have in place is insufficient.
  3. Talk to your employer to see what insurance options are included in your benefit package. Employer-provided coverage may not be adequate, but it is a good place to start and is usually offered at reduced cost.
  4. Analyze your current coverage with an insurance professional who works in your best interest. Consider working with an insurance broker, as opposed to an insurance agent.

Understanding how insurance products work and how they can protect you today and tomorrow is critical in choosing the most fitting policies. When you work with a TCI Advisor, we’ll be with you along the way. If you need education on a particular type of insurance or your needs change, we’ll be the first to help you decide on new coverage.

Looking Beyond Standard Insurance

Hopefully, everyone is covered by the standard forms of insurance: homeowners (or renters), auto, and health. All of these offer important protection in the event something unexpected happens. However, to truly protect yourself and your loved ones, you might need additional coverage, including liability, disability, life and long-term care. These may not be necessary for everyone, but it is important to review whether you need them.

 

One insurance transition that will be necessary in your life is signing up for Medicare. People often ask us, “ How does Medicare fit into my financial plan, and how do I know which is the right plan?” At TCI, we have resources to help make this transition as smooth as possible. Your health is one of your greatest assets and represents one of the biggest sources of expense. Please, lean on your TCI team as you navigate Medicare and all its intricacies. Give yourself and your family the gift of knowing that you are doing everything in your power to be protected against life’s unknowns.

Creating Your Custom Insurance Plan

Insurance is not one-size-fits-all. You need a custom insurance plan that  provides specific protections. At TCI, we’ll consider aspects like your age, family structure, health, and assets to determine what insurance protections could serve you best. Then, we will make recommendations based on your plan and connect you with the right insurance agent to fulfill your needs.
