  • Transfer method, paperwork flow, and avoidable tax mistakes.
  • Liquidity needs, beneficiary setup, and timing.

Questions people usually ask first

What is the safest way to move an old 401(k)?

Usually a direct rollover, but Greg reviews the details before money moves.

Sometimes the first step is an IRA review. The right path depends on your goals, liquidity, and overall fit.

Will I owe taxes on a rollover?

Not usually on a direct rollover, but cash-outs and indirect moves can create taxes or penalties.

How long does a rollover usually take?

Anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on the plan and paperwork.
