For Modern Wealth Builders investments are one component of your wealth—not the driver of it.

Our role is to design, oversee, and coordinate an investment strategy that aligns with your broader financial architecture.

Investment management is optional and billed separately using our tiered AUM schedule.

Many clients hire us for planning and VFO coordination alone; others choose a fully integrated wealth + investment solution.

Either way, your portfolio is structured with intention—not guesswork.

Our Approach to Investment Strategy

1. Strategy First, Portfolio Second

Your investment plan is built only after we understand your full financial ecosystem: real estate, entities, cash flow, tax positioning, liquidity needs, timelines, and risk profile.

This avoids siloed advice so your portfolio functions as part of a cohesive strategy, not a standalone product.

2. Evidence-Based, Risk-Aligned Portfolio Construction

We build portfolios grounded in long-term discipline, diversification, and risk alignment.

This includes:

  • Strategic asset allocation

  • Thoughtful diversification across asset classes

  • Portfolio construction aligned with your blueprint

  • Sensible use of factor exposure when appropriate

Research-driven, disciplined investing.

3. Tax-Aware Portfolio Design

For complex families, taxes are often the biggest drag on returns.
We integrate tax awareness into every investment decision, including:

  • Asset location

  • Withdrawal strategy coordination

  • Capital gains planning

  • Tax-loss harvesting when appropriate

  • Coordination with your CPA for major decisions

We don’t prepare taxes—your CPA does—but we ensure your investment plan supports your overall tax strategy.

4. Integration With Real Estate & Business Interests

Most of our clients wealth is built through:

  • Real estate

  • Business ownership

  • Multiple income streams

  • Equity-based compensation

Your portfolio is designed to complement these larger wealth engines.

This helps to avoid duplicated risks while providing liquidity planning.

5. Personalization Without Complexity

You need a strategy that:

  • fits your risk capacity,

  • supports your goals,

  • respects your time, and

  • evolves with your life.

We keep the approach streamlined, transparent, and intentional.

A Disciplined, Long-Term Partnership

We don’t chase markets.
We don’t predict headlines.
We don’t sell products.

We design investment strategies that make sense for your life, your risk, and your long-term plan and we integrate them cohesively with the rest of your financial world.
