Roth Strategies

We take a proactive approach to Roth planning because it’s one of the most powerful tax strategies available, and one that’s often overlooked.

As Doug and Danielle often say, Roth remains one of the most impactful opportunities in the tax code, especially when it’s used intentionally over time. Whether through contributions, conversions, or a blended approach, we help you understand which Roth strategies align with your tax picture and long-term goals. Because timing, income levels, and future needs all matter, we walk you through the “why” behind each step and build a tax-smart path that supports retirement flexibility and multigenerational planning.

A Roth IRA conversion—sometimes called a backdoor Roth strategy—is a way to contribute to a Roth IRA when income exceeds standard limits. The converted amount is treated as taxable income and may affect your tax bracket. Federal, state, and local taxes may apply. If you’re required to take a minimum distribution in the year of conversion, it must be completed before converting.
To qualify for tax-free withdrawals, you must generally be age 59½ and hold the converted funds in the Roth IRA for at least five years. Each conversion has its own five-year period, and early withdrawals may be subject to a 10% penalty unless an exception applies. Income limits still apply for future direct Roth IRA contributions.
