Wealth Management In Cary, North Carolina

Independent • Fee-Only • Fiduciary • Est. 2009

Tackett Wealth Management is an independent fee-only fiduciary wealth management firm serving retirees, business owners, professionals, and families throughout Cary and the surrounding Triangle region. Founded in 2009 by Bret Tackett and Erin Tackett, the firm provides personalized investment management and wealth planning guidance to a select group of individuals and families.

Clients work directly with the professionals responsible for managing their portfolios and advising on important financial decisions. As a fee-only fiduciary firm, we do not receive commissions or sell proprietary investment products.

Our approach integrates investment management with broader planning considerations, including retirement income planning, retirement account distribution strategies, tax-efficient planning, estate planning coordination, and long-term wealth preservation.

Why Clients Choose Tackett Wealth Management

Selecting a financial advisor is ultimately an exercise in trust. Many of our clients come to us seeking objective advice, a long-term relationship, and a more personal experience than they have found elsewhere.

As an independent registered investment adviser, our firm is compensated exclusively by our clients. We do not receive commissions, earn incentives for recommending particular investments, or offer proprietary investment products.

Our fiduciary responsibility requires us to place client interests first and provide advice designed to serve their long-term objectives. Investment management is performed in-house and integrated with broader wealth planning considerations.

Since founding the firm during the Great Recession in 2009, our focus has remained intentionally straightforward: providing personalized wealth management and investment guidance to a limited number of individuals and families.

Retirement Distribution Planning

Many of our clients are retired or approaching retirement, and the transition from accumulating wealth to distributing it can present a new set of financial decisions.

Withdrawal strategies from IRAs, 401(k)s, Roth accounts, and taxable investment accounts can affect taxes, retirement income, and long-term portfolio sustainability. Decisions involving required minimum distributions, Roth conversions, charitable giving strategies, and inherited retirement accounts may also have significant financial implications.

We work closely with clients to evaluate retirement distribution strategies within the broader context of their investment portfolios, tax situation, income needs, and long-term objectives. Our goal is to help clients make informed decisions while maintaining a disciplined and coordinated approach to wealth management.
