## The 6 Tax Strategies We Offer

1. 537 Installment Sale Trust — Indefinite tax deferral on sales of appreciated assets (businesses, crypto, real estate). Receive interest-only payments until the trust is dissolved.

2. 1031 Exchange (with Safety Net) — Defer capital gains by swapping investment real estate for like-kind property. Includes backup qualification strategies and optional partial cash-out.

3. Q Tax Plan — Our signature tax-reduction system for W-2 earners and business owners. Guaranteed tax savings or full refund.

4. Roth Conversion Strategy (Model Q®) — Convert pre-tax retirement funds to tax-free Roth with little to no tax hit, coordinated with other Q strategies to minimize the conversion tax.

5. Model Q® Flex Strategy — Cash-flow optimization for business owners and high earners. Layered growth accounts to boost cash flow while cutting taxable income.

6. Amortized Installment Sale — Sell real estate for principal and interest payments over time to defer capital gains and create predictable retirement income.

## Who We Serve

IRA Millionaires — individuals age 55-75 with $750,000+ in pre-tax retirement accounts (traditional IRA, 401(k), 403(b)) facing RMD exposure and looking for strategic Roth conversion timing.

FIRE / HENRY high earners — W-2 professionals with $200-500K household income pursuing financial independence. Strategies include IRC 469 passive activity loss positioning and Roth Excelerator-style conversion.

Business owners planning exit or sale — owners with $1M+ in appreciated business equity needing capital gains deferral (537 IST).

Real estate investors — portfolio owners deferring gains through 1031 Exchange and retirees converting property to income via Amortized Installment Sale.

## Our Methodology: Model Q®

Model Q® is our coordinated approach that selects the right combination of the 6 strategies for each client's situation. Rather than pitching a single product, we run the math across every applicable strategy and build a plan that stacks them together — for example, coordinating a Roth conversion with a Q Tax Plan to offset the conversion tax, or pairing a 1031 Exchange with a 537 IST to maintain deferral flexibility.

## Roth Conversion FAQ

Q: What is the #1 Roth conversion timing mistake? A: Doing a single large conversion in the wrong year — usually a year with high ordinary income or before the lowest-income "conversion window" between retirement and age 73 (when RMDs begin).

Q: I'm in my 70s — isn't it too late? A: No. Conversions still make sense for legacy planning (beneficiaries inherit Roths tax-free vs. paying income tax on traditional IRA withdrawals) and for protecting a surviving spouse from higher single-filer brackets.

Q: I don't want to pay taxes now — why would I convert? A: Would you rather pay taxes on the seed or on the harvest? With $500K in a Traditional IRA growing to $1M, you'll pay taxes on the full million at future rates. A conversion pays taxes on the $500K today at known rates and lets the growth be tax-free.

Q: What if tax rates go down instead of up? A: Historically, rates are near all-time lows and the national debt math suggests they'll rise. Even if rates stay flat, conversions still win via avoided RMDs, tax-free growth for life, and tax-free inheritance.

Q: How does the Model Q® Roth Strategy differ from doing it myself or using a generalist advisor? A: A generalist typically runs one-year projections. Model Q® runs the math across your full retirement horizon and coordinates the conversion with the other 5 strategies to offset the conversion tax — something DIY calculators can't model.

Q: Is $750K+ enough to justify the strategy? A: $500K in total retirement assets is our minimum qualified threshold. $1M+ with retirement within 5 years is our priority segment where lifetime tax savings routinely exceed $500K.
