Welcome to SmartCloud Tax & Accounting! 


Our Tax Loss Harvesting service is designed to help you strategically manage your investment portfolio to minimize your tax liability and maximize your returns. Whether you're an individual investor or managing a larger portfolio, our expert team provides personalized guidance to optimize your tax strategy and enhance your financial well-being.

 

What is Tax Loss Harvesting?


Tax loss harvesting involves selling investments that have lost value to offset the capital gains from other investments, thereby reducing your overall tax liability. The losses can also offset up to $3,000 of ordinary income per year, and any excess losses can be carried forward to future years.


 

Why Tax Loss Harvesting Matters


1. Tax Savings: By offsetting capital gains with losses, you can significantly reduce your tax bill, keeping more of your investment earnings.


2. Portfolio Rebalancing: Tax loss harvesting allows you to sell underperforming assets and reinvest in more promising opportunities without incurring a large tax penalty.


3. Improved Returns: Reducing your tax liability through tax loss harvesting can enhance your overall investment returns over time.


4. Flexibility: Losses that exceed your gains can be carried forward to future tax years, providing ongoing tax benefits.
