What is Guided Wealth Advising?

Online Investing, Personalize for You

Guided Wealth Portfolios is our digital investing strategy that allows you to invest online with a low starting minimum and low-cost, while working with a personal financial professional. Whereas other, similar strategies, called “robo advisors,” often provide the online investment management, the majority do not provide a personal relationship with a financial professional.

What You Get

With Guided Wealth Portfolios, you get a diversified portfolio personalized for you and your individual investment goals. Guided Wealth Portfolios is an innovative way to invest for your future, whether you want to save for retirement or a new home or simply want to get your money in the markets so it’s not sitting idle. You’ll also get to build a relationship with a LPL Financial advisor at West Invest and engage with a personalized, online dashboard that shows you how your account is doing along the way.

Intelligent Investing

Guided Wealth Portfolios offers investment management to help you pursue your financial objectives. You’ll receive diversified allocations designed with a goal for you and your savings goals, and benefit from trading techniques that may increase diversification and can help reduce taxes. You’ll receive:

Tax-efficient investing - Through advanced asset analysis, we’ll allocate your assets in a tax-efficient manner and evaluate the tax impact of each trade before it goes through.
Consistent monitoring - We monitor your portfolio daily, keep it on track as markets move, and rebalance it as needed.
Tax-loss harvesting - If an investment experiences a loss, we may sell it to offset potentially taxable gains in your portfolio. The investments sold are replaced by similar investments to maintain your asset allocation, so you get tax benefits while keeping a properly diversified portfolio.
Investment advice - We’re available any time you have a question about your account or investing strategy.

Guided Wealth Portfolios is one of the reasons why we can successfully work with clients throughout the country. Enjoy the personalized, high level service our in-person clients receive on your terms.
