Understanding the advantages and opportunities of tax planning can help you accumulate assets in a more productive manner.

The complexity of the tax landscape continues to increase. The 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act has made numerous tax breaks available once again. The new law provides incentives for first-time home buyers, for increasing energy efficiency in homes, and tax considerations for parents and students paying for college. It is advantageous to capture these tax benefits while they are available.

• Plan capital gain/loss transactions to capture and strategically utilize capital loss carryover.
