A lot of the people we help here have spent their careers on or around campus. That comes with retirement questions most advisors gloss over: how to make the most of the Optional Retirement Program (ORP), your 403(b) and 457, and how it all fits with Social Security and the rest of your savings.

Low-cost portfolios built for the long haul, not the headlines.
Many of the people we help in Christiansburg are in that in-between stretch: the kids are grown or nearly there, retirement is close enough to feel real, and the decisions are suddenly bigger. Should we pay off the house or invest? When can we actually stop working? Are we leaving money on the table at tax time? We answer those questions with a plan built around your life, not a template.
After years of disciplined saving and investing, this couple reached financial independence in their late 30s. Their challenge wasn't accumulating more. It was creating a sustainable plan for a retirement that could last 50+ years.
A strong income, growing investments, and a healthy financial foundation. What they lacked wasn't information. It was time, clarity, and a trusted partner to help coordinate financial decisions.
"The whole team at Martin Wealth have been very helpful to me. I’ve been a client for about 5 years and love that they are always available to answer questions."
A Note from Our Founder: I founded Martin Wealth Solutions in 2011 because it was time for a change - not just for me, but in how the wealth management profession delivered advice and cared for clients as fiduciaries. The goal was simple: make retirement planning easier to understand. Make it human. Today, our fiduciary planning team - including CFP® professionals – helps people make smart decisions about taxes, retirement income, investments, and healthcare. So they can retire on their terms.
That goal shapes every part of our firm - our people, our services, our operations, and how we work with you. We give you clear answers and a team you can turn to whenever an important retirement decision comes up. We serve clients in Roanoke, Salem, Smith Mountain Lake, Blacksburg, Christiansburg, and throughout the New River Valley, as well as clients nationwide.
Schedule a 20-minute call with a fiduciary advisor - not a salesperson. We’ll talk through where you are, what’s on your mind, and whether a next step makes sense. No sales pitch. No paperwork. No pressure. Just a conversation.
The underlying question is simple: "Will we be okay?" We build a plan that shows when you can retire, how much you can spend, and where your retirement income will come from—so you can enjoy what you worked for.
“What happens if the market crashes after I retire?” It’s one of the biggest fears retirees have. We build low-cost, tax-efficient portfolios so you have a clear strategy for what to do when markets fall instead of reacting in the moment.
“How do I pay less in taxes?” We build tax strategies to help you reduce taxes today and throughout your retirement—so you can keep more of what you’ve worked hard to save.
Our fiduciary advisors help you make smart retirement decisions about taxes, retirement income, investments, and healthcare
