Serving individuals and families in or nearing the retirement phase of their life.
Grow and protect the wealth needed to enjoy the sort of retirement you’ve worked hard to prepare for all these years.

Both sides of the Lohr family are originally from Madison County. In fact, the historic home on main street next to the county library is our office and the original homeplace of Lois Aylor, Greg Lohr’s mother. The property was residentially leased for many years until it was purchased outright by Greg in 2019. The home now serves several functions. An office for Lohr & Company during the week and an Airbnb for out of town guests on the weekends. Lastly, the 10 acres in the back of the property is used to raise Black Angus steers during the warm months, keeping the property tied to its original roots.
The financial advisors at Lohr & Company can help you figure out how much you’ll need for your retirement and establish goals to help you get there. Our financial advisors offer these services for individuals and families in or nearing retirement: comprehensive financial planning and disciplined investment management using our well-known 4 Buckets Income Strategy.

Why partner with Lohr for your financial planning and other advice needs?
Financial Planning strategies customized to your needs
Financial planning shouldn’t be isolated from the rest of your financial goals. That’s why we incorporate your complete wealth and tax management plan as part of your financial planning for retirement. By looking at the big picture, we are able to gain a better understanding of your financial goals as they relate to various aspects of your financial plan such as your investments, estate plan, risk management plan, tax strategy, and even your business succession plan, and can better direct you on where and how to allocate your retirement savings.
Visualize your Retirement Income Using The 4 Buckets Strategy
There is a vast universe of investment vehicles and account types to know and understand when preparing for retirement such as individual retirement accounts (IRAs), 401(k)s, high-yield savings accounts, real estate property, money market accounts (MMA), and fixed annuities. What does all of this mean? What should you consider and what should you avoid? On top of that there are tax laws, required minimum distributions, penalties, inflation, and other risks to consider. Not to mention establishing how your investment portfolio and savings accounts play into your overall retirement income plan.
Partnering with Lohr & Company takes the guesswork out of managing your retirement income streams. Our 4 Buckets Income Strategy is a simple, yet strategically designed concept to maximize the efficiency of your retirement income plan. The strategy is designed to show where and how your income needs are being met in retirement and incorporates research-backed investment principles and tax efficiency, giving you the confidence you need to enjoy the retirement years of your life.
Considerations for the next generation
You have worked hard to accumulate the wealth that you have. To ensure that your legacy exists far beyond your lifetime, you’ll want to incorporate estate planning and generational wealth management into your existing retirement plan.
At Lohr & Company, we are able to incorporate considerations for generational wealth planning as part of our financial planning. Our advisors are also able to work with your existing estate lawyers and tax advisors to create an effective and efficient estate plan that considers probate expenses and tax implications.

Meet Our Advisors
Greg Lohr, MBA
Managing Partner
Greg founded Lohr & Company in 1993 to help more people achieve their dream of a secure and comfortable retirement. Before he entered the financial services industry, he worked as an electrical engineer. Having grown up sorrounded by mathematics and engineering educators his entire life, he always assumed he would be an engineer. But in his last semester at the University of Virginia, he took a finance class and realized that it was financial math that truly excited him.
After spending a few years as an engineer, he decided to follow his heart and return to school for an MBA in finance from the College of William & Mary. Although he originally entered the finance industry because he was excited about the personal opportunities, it was the satisfaction of seeing people at peace with their money that has kept him here for this entire career.
When he isn’t working, Greg enjoys spending time with his beautiful wife and their adult children. In addition to managing their family farms, Greg and his wife also manage a growing Airbnb venue. In the cold weather months, you can find Greg hunting whitetail deer in the breathtaking Virginia landscapes.
Ethan Lohr, CFP®
Partner
Ethan always knew his dream was to follow in his father’s footsteps and carry out his same mission: to help more people find financial peace and security in retirement. Ethan started practicing for his future career quite early, at the age of 6, advising his sisters on their savings with the help of his trusty calculator. But it wasn’t until he graduated from James Madison University that he truly began developing his talent as a financial advisor at Lohr & Company.
Ethan is most fulfilled when he’s helping clients develop a sound plan and then executing that plan. He knows that pre-retirees often have many unanswered questions and may be feeling trepidation about retirement—and rightfully so. Retirement is one of life’s greatest transitions and Ethan knows how important it is to get everything right the first time. He works to ease his clients’ fears, provide them with confidence, and help them take the necessary actions to move forward.
When he isn’t serving clients, Ethan enjoys spending time with his wife and two sons. You can also find him practicing his swing on the golf course, exercising, and hunting with his dad.
