What to look for in a Bentonville advisor
An advisor who works with equity comp does three things a generic advisor doesn't. They model supplemental-withholding gaps before April. They understand the interaction between federal AMT and AR ordinary tax on ISO exercises. And they know which AR trust structures and QSBS stacking strategies actually work versus which are theoretically interesting but administratively fragile.
Fee structure
Most advisors you'll meet through VestedGrant are fee-only. Some charge a flat annual retainer ($5k–$25k depending on complexity). Others charge a percentage of assets under management, usually 0.5%-1.0% with breakpoints above $1M. A few bill hourly for specific planning events. Be skeptical of anyone selling life insurance or annuities as your primary equity-comp solution.
Local tax considerations
AR taxes RSU and NSO income as ordinary at a top rate of 3.9%. 50% of long-term capital gains excluded from state taxation.
