Tax & Wealth Optimization

Instead of a rolodex of different attorneys, managers, and consultants, Harbour Pointe brings all the disparate areas of your wealth together under one roof.

Through our 5-Step Tax & Wealth Optimization Process, our advisors work with you to create customized financial plans and a portfolio that helps you sustain your ideal lifestyle.

Complex financial situations are best handled by precise, personalized plans. We see each client as having a unique financial situation with unique financial goals and objectives.

Each client works with their advisor to create an entirely customized wealth management plan to reach their objectives. This includes customized:

  • Investment Portfolio
  • Tax Plan
  • Cash Flow Plans
  • Retirement Plans
  • Estate Plans

Our philosophy is that by customizing your wealth management, we can more effectively accomplish your goals, no matter how complex.

To us, wealth optimization means that your wealth is working together in harmony, and each piece of your wealth is complementing and supporting the others.

A portfolio disjointed from a financial plan or tax plan is sub-optimal. We look for opportunities to drive out inefficiencies, so the portfolio is best positioned to capitalize on the benefits of the custom financial plan.

When every aspect of your wealth is working in concert to accomplish your goals, you are more likely to achieve them. This is wealth optimization.

Independent & Fiduciary Advisors

We serve our clients as independent, fee-only fiduciaries. Our clients always receive independent advice free of any conflicts of interest.

Independent

An independent financial advisor is one that cannot receive commissions from recommending investments.

Truly independent wealth management advisors are fee-only, minimizing any conflicts of interest.

Fiduciary

A fiduciary financial advisor is one who always and only acts in the best interests of their clients.

Fiduciaries are bound by the Fiduciary Standard, which requires advisors to always put the best interests of clients first.
