Taxes

• Tax Planning
  Householder Group provides financial and tax planning as well as investment counseling services. We work closely with the business owner such as the business advisors, accountants, and pension administrators, to help them achieve their financial objectives.
• Estate Taxes
• Roth IRA
  This article discusses how investors can execute Roth IRA conversions with little or no tax liability by combining them with a charitable lead annuity trust (CLAT). A CLAT is an irrevocable trust that pays a guaranteed amount to a charity for a specified period. By creating and funding a CLAT in the same year as the Roth IRA conversion using non-retirement account assets, investors can use the resulting charitable deduction on their tax return to offset the tax on the conversion, potentially achieving a tax-free Roth IRA conversion. However, there are considerations and limitations, such as the 30% of adjusted gross income (AGI) rule and potential administrative complexities when creating multiple trusts.

Investment

• Investment Management
  What investment services and advice can you provide me? Our firm primarily offers the following investment advisory services to retail clients: portfolio management via a wrap fee program (we review your portfolio, investment strategy, and investments); financial planning (we assess your financial situation and provide advice to meet your goals); solicitor/selection of other advisers (we select a third party adviser for you to use). As part of our standard services, we typically monitor client accounts on a monthly basis.

We do not limit the types of investments that we recommend. Our firm does not have a minimum account size. Please also see our Form ADV Part 2A (“ Brochure ”), specifically Items 4 & 7.

  At this point, the Fed is no longer a buyer of Treasuries. Pension funds, mutual funds, retail portfolios, institutional portfolios, and an assortment of exchange traded funds have been important domestic buyers. Foreign buyers continue to remain active buyers participating in Treasury auctions, but global central banks have not been as active in Treasury auctions as they once were.

• Annuities
  Third Party Costs: Some investments (e.g., mutual funds, variable annuities, etc.) impose additional fees (e.g., transactional fees and product-level fees) that reduce the value of your investment over time. You will also pay fees to a custodian that will hold your assets. For the wrap fee program, you will not typically pay additional transaction fees and thus our advisory fee is higher than if you paid transaction fees separately. You will pay fees and costs whether you make or lose money on your investments. Fees and costs will reduce any amount of money you make on your investments over time. Please make sure you understand what fees and costs you are paying. Please also see our Brochure for additional details.

• Asset Management
  The difference between strategic and tactical investment time horizons can be likened to the ebb and flow of tidal patterns in oceans. Strategic investing mirrors the steady rise and fall of the tides, focusing on long-term goals and expectations more stable akin to the predictable rhythm of oceans. On the other hand, investing in tactical time horizons resembles the dynamic nature of changing tides, responding to short-term market conditions like unpredictable surges and waves in the sea. Here we compare and contrast these two distinct processes and recap our recent strategic asset allocation change.
