Wolfgang Suess
CEO 7 Founder
Wolfgang is CEO and Founder at Capitalize Wealth Management, LLC. With over 28 years of experience in capital markets, real estate and wealth management, he has a vast amount of knowledge in portfolio management, institutional alternative assets, and tax mitigation strategies. After receiving a finance degree from DePaul University, he held membership seats on the Chicago Board of Trade and Chicago Board of Option Exchange where he had success as a derivatives trader and hedge fund portfolio manager.
He specializes in tax mitigation strategies aimed at reducing personal tax liability related to both passive and active income, as well as short and long-term capital gains. He routinely speaks on these topics and provides continuing education on tax mitigation to Bar Associations, CPA and Law firms, Real Estate brokerages, and investor groups. Wolfgang has personally utilized many of these strategies – including 1031 Exchanges and Opportunity Zone Funds – as both an active and passive real estate investor. Additionally, he has personally invested and raised capital for many private equity real estate offerings throughout his career – ranging from ground up development projects to fully stabilized assets. He is a consistent top producer – relying on recurring business and referrals from satisfied clients to grow his business.
After spending most of his life in Chicago, he now resides in Beacon Hill, Boston and is active in the community – donating his time and resources to several neighborhood organizations and cancer research charities. Wolfgang is an avid traveler and enjoys hiking, deep sea fishing, playing golf and tennis, and exploring New England with his wife Lindsye and Bernadoodle Millie.
