happy financial planning clientsWe understand that with different personal histories and philosophies no two people are the same. 

Because of these differences we let our clients define the kind of relationship they want to have with us from implementing full financial planning strategies to rendering an opinion on a specific investment or financial protection from a specific threat like an injury.

Meeting with a Financial Advisor located at Decision Tree Financial is easy to do.  In the greater Orlando area our office is easy to find, or to save travel time we can meet in our virtual meeting space using Skype with clients anywhere in the world who reside where we are securities registered and insurance licensed.  Picture of Internet Meeting

Leaving Your Home Out of the Retirement Equation

Plummeting home prices and increased borrowing cut U.S. home equity by more than 60% during the Great Recession — and housing prices have not yet recovered. This article considers the potential drawbacks of depending on home equity to help fund retirement.

Giving Strategies That Can Give Back

Americans gave more than $290 billion to charity in 2010, despite the slow economy. About 73% of charitable donations came directly from individuals. This article explains how a charitable remainder trust and a charitable lead trust could be used to provide more control over gifts while potentially benefiting the giver and his or her heirs.

Favorable Dividend and Capital Gains Tax Rates Extended—for Now

The 2010 Tax Relief Act extended the 15% maximum tax rates on qualified dividends and long-term capital gains through December 31, 2012. But without further legislation, dividends will be taxed at ordinary income tax rates and capital gains tax rates will return to 20% (23.8% for investors in the two highest tax brackets) in 2013.

At age 62, the earliest age to claim Social Security, the amount received could be only 70% of the benefit received at "full retirement age" (which ranges from age 65 to 67 depending on year of birth).
