Many people come to Smith Mountain Lake after building careers elsewhere. Retirement may include a lake property, a second residence, several retirement accounts, investment income and decisions about whether the home should eventually remain in the family.

Explore Retirement Income PlanningA home at Smith Mountain Lake can be both a valuable asset and an important part of the family’s story. Those two roles do not always lead to simple decisions.
One child may want to keep the property while another would prefer to sell. Ongoing taxes, insurance, maintenance and ownership responsibilities may become difficult to divide. The way a property is titled and incorporated into the estate plan can also affect how it passes to the next generation.
Martin Wealth Solutions does not provide legal advice or draft estate documents. We help clients think through the financial decisions, organize their priorities and coordinate with their estate-planning attorney and tax professionals. Planning considerations may include:
How the property fits within the overall estate
Whether heirs have the desire and financial ability to maintain it
Liquidity for taxes, expenses or unequal inheritances
Beneficiary designations and account ownership
Coordination with trusts or other legal documents prepared by an attorney
Our planning process helps organize your financial life around five connected areas:
Income and Investments: Turn savings and employer benefits into a sustainable retirement-income strategy.
Taxes: Look beyond this year’s tax return to the taxes you may pay throughout retirement.
Security: Prepare for Social Security, Medicare, healthcare costs and unexpected risks.
Legacy: Coordinate beneficiaries and estate-planning decisions with the broader financial strategy.
Momentum: Review and adjust the strategy as your life, the markets and tax laws change.
