6 Strategies to Help Lower RMD Taxes

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), 401(k)s and other workplace plans can help you build wealth for the future while enjoying some tax benefits.

There's just one important thing you need to plan for: required minimum
distributions (RMDs). The IRS requires you to begin taking distributions from certain retirement accounts in the year you turn 73.

If not properly planned for, these distributions could take a potential tax toll on your retirement nest egg.

Here are six smart RMD strategies that could help reduce distributions and
potentially lower your tax bill. See the list.

Consulting a fiduciary financial advisor can be a great first step to factoring RMDs, and the potential tax repercussions, into your retirement plan. 

SmartAsset's latest proprietary model reveals that working with a financial advisor could potentially add from 36% to 212% more dollar value to investors' portfolios over a lifetime, depending on multiple unique, individual factors.¹

This is a hypothetical example and is not representative of any specific security. Actual results when working with a financial advisor will vary.

This scenario is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent an actual client. Results may vary.
This is not an offer to buy or sell any security or interest. All investing involves risk, including loss of principal.
Working with an adviser may come with potential downsides such as payment of fees (which will reduce
returns). Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. There are no guarantees that working with an
adviser will yield positive returns. The existence of a fiduciary duty does not prevent the rise of potential
conflicts of interest.
