It’s that time of year to prepare for your taxes!
We know that you do this annually, but we also realize every year is a little different. When working with your accountant, make sure not to only focus on 2019, but on years to come.
Some topics to consider:
- Buying or selling investment property? (Minerals, house, land, etc.)
- If so, you may consider a 1031 exchange.
- How to “lump your charitable deductions using a donor advised fund
- Should you be making pretax or after-tax contributions to your retirement plans.
Also remember, we can help you navigate these important issues and we are happy to include your accountant and lawyer in the discussion.
Don’t forget our strength at Markle Financial is to help you in all things financial.
