Retirement & Estate Planning

Plan for Your Golden Years and Beyond

As you approach retirement age, having a solid financial plan in place is crucial for living the lifestyle you desire. At Walnut Beech Advisors, our retirement and estate planning services help New York residents structure their finances to plan for a smooth transition into retirement and leave the legacy behind they intend to.

We start by fully evaluating your current assets, income streams, debts, tax situation, and future financial goals. This helps us understand exactly where you stand today so we can chart the optimal path to your future retirement dreams.

Secure Your Retirement

We take a holistic approach to retirement planning that goes beyond investments to encompass all aspects of your finances. To this end we explore critical questions like:

  • What is your envisioned retirement lifestyle? Do you plan to travel often or live modestly? This determines how much yearly income you may need.
  • What are your sources of retirement income? We analyze your employer-provided pension, social security benefits, 401ks, IRAs, rental properties, business ownership stakes, and other income streams to quantify your reliable yearly retirement funding.
  • Are you saving enough currently to reach your goals? We run projections and advise whether you need to save more now to afford the retirement you picture.

Protect Your Legacy with Proper Estate Planning

Part of living confidently in the present is knowing that your wishes will be carried out in the future. In addition to funding the retirement lifestyle you desire, planning for the effective transfer of your wealth is crucial. Our estate planning services help create estate plans that will protect and efficiently transfer your wealth while conveying your wishes for your loved ones and your care.

Key elements we help structure include:

  • Wills and Trusts: We help craft customized wills and trusts based on your unique assets, beneficiaries, and intentions.
  • Beneficiary Designations: Ensuring your retirement accounts, life insurance policies, and other assets pass to the intended recipients.
  • Tax Minimization Strategies: We utilize approaches like trusts, gifting, and advanced charitable giving techniques to reduce estate taxes so more of your wealth reaches heirs.
  • Asset Protection: Strategies are implemented to shield assets from potential creditors or lawsuits.
  • Powers of Attorney: Instructions are prescribed authorizing designated individuals to handle finances if you become incapacitated
  • Health Care Proxies: for medical decisions if you are unable to make them
  • Long-Term Care Instructions: for managing costs if extended personal assistance is needed
