A Better Way to manage your finances

We provide individuals and business owners with proactive and holistic planning services centered around their needs. Rather than clients receiving disjointed advice from multiple independent advisors, we bring all the necessary professionals together to work as ONE TEAM for you. Whether it’s starting a family, retirement, homeownership, investing or thinking about buying or selling a business, let’s work together to plan and meet your goals.

How our Team-based approach gives you more

Through this holistic Team approach, we have access to a network of trusted specialist in the following areas that we work with to provide you with the services you need:

Cost Remediation Analysis

Cost Remediation is an advance planning technique that focuses on decreasing business expenses and maximizing profitability for a business in order to maintain a competitive edge. We work with a Cost Remediation specialist to review all business expenses and identify key potential savings including items like shipping costs, credit card processing, manufacturing contracts, utility consumption, and lease audits.

 

Once the study identifies the key cost savings, a plan is drafted and the company performing the study will assist in the re-negotiation of existing contracts or establishing new contracts. A Cost Remediation Company is usually compensated as a percentage of the savings they can generate for a client. Companies performing Cost Remediations will often have a significant network of businesses that can offer competitive pricing on services without impacting quality.

Business Valuations

This is the process of determining the value of a business as a whole or for a specific production unit. Business Valuations are an important stepping stone in order to implement other advanced planning techniques, especially when the business owner is considering a sale, merger or acquisition of a business.

 

We work closely with professionals trained in business valuations in order to estimates the value of your business using objective estimates and industry averages. Several evaluation models can be used for the determination of a business value therefore, working with an experienced business valuation professional is extremely important.

Business Financing

Raising funds to start a business often requires outside financing. Selecting the best financing option for your business is a critical step that requires careful consideration. Business owners looking to expand their business or potentially consolidating existing debt must explore this option to take their business to the next level.

 

We work with business financing specialists connected to hundreds of lenders across the country in order to find the best business financing solution for your business. With a large network of lenders, we help our clients close the right loan based on their unique individual situation.

Cost Segregation

A cost segregation study identifies and reclassifies personal property assets to shorten the depreciation time for taxation purposes. The primary goal of a cost segregation study is to identify all construction-related costs that can be depreciated over a shorter tax life (typically 5, 7 and 15 years) than the building (39 years for non-residential real property).

 

We work with professionals that specialize in cost segregations in order to audit-proof this technique and avoid potential challenges by the Internal Revenue Service. This allows the business owner to reduce current income tax obligations and increase cash flow.

Succession Planning

Business exit or succession planning helps business owners develop an exit strategy to maximize their after-tax cash proceeds while meeting non-financial objectives. As you consider the next phase in your life, you want to ensure that you are exiting the business while maximizing your lifelong investment. Whether you are considering selling your business or planning to have your business managed by someone else, succession planning is essential in order to reach your goals.

 

We work with Succession Planning specialists to identify our clients’ best and most lucrative exit strategy based on their individual goals. Succession and exit planning strategies will vary based on the particulars of the business (size, industry, management structure, and cash flow), the state of the economy, the M&A market, and your personal objectives.

Long Term Care Planning

Long-term care is intended to cover a range of services that supports your personal care needs. Most long-term care is not medical care, but rather assistance with the basic personal tasks of everyday life like bathing, dressing, and eating. Long Term Care is usually very expensive, which is why most people need insurance. For example, on average, nursing facilities providing skilled care charge $150 to $300 per day, which is more than $80,000 a year! Without a plan, your retirement savings could be wiped out.

 

If you have assets to protect, a well-balanced retirement plan could include a Long-Term Care Policy intended to protect your retirement savings from being depleted unnecessarily. We work with Financial Advisors that specialize in Long Term Care Planning to identify the best options for your individual goals. Our Team-Based Model alliance brings you planning specialists centered around your individual needs and goals.
