Top cross-border / expatriate tax planning financial advisors in Long Beach, CA
The right financial advisor for you depends on how you weigh location, expertise, experience, the clients they typically serve, and how they work with you.
If you live or work across borders, or plan to move abroad, you need an advisor who understands how different countries' tax rules interact. Without this expertise, you might face unexpected tax bills or miss opportunities to reduce your tax burden.
- Dual tax compliance. Confirm how they handle filing requirements in both your home and host countries to avoid penalties.
- Property tax insights. In California, Proposition 13 limits property tax increases, so ask how they factor this into your long-term planning.
- Income sourcing rules. Cross-border income can be taxed differently; check how they identify and optimize these distinctions.
- Currency and reporting. Ask about managing foreign currency effects and reporting obligations like FBAR or FATCA to stay compliant.
Here are top matches to get you started. Review each profile to compare experience, credentials, and approach.

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.
For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.
Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
