Investing in mutual funds for retirement is never too late. And the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank can be an excellent tool for investors looking to invest in the best funds.

How can you tell a good mutual fund from a bad one? It's pretty basic: if the fund is diversified, has low fees, and shows strong performance, it's a keeper. Of course, there's a wide range, but using the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank, we've found three mutual funds that would be great additions to any long-term investors' portfolios.

Let's take a look at some of our top-ranked mutual funds with the lowest fees.

If you are looking to diversify your portfolio, consider Victory Diversified Stock I (VDSIX). VDSIX is part of the Large Cap Blend section, and these mutual funds most often invest in firms with a market capitalization of $10 billion or more. By investing in bigger companies, these funds offer more stability, and are often well-suited for investors with a "buy and hold" mindset. This fund is a winner, boasting an expense ratio of 0.83%, management fee of 0.65%, and a five-year annualized return track record of 16.79%.

GMO International Oppotun Value III (GTMIX): 0.69% expense ratio and 0.65% management fee. GTMIX is a part of the Non US - Equity fund category, many of which will focus across all cap levels, and will typically allocate their investments between emerging and developed markets. GTMIX, with annual returns of 12.63% over the last five years, is a well-diversified fund with a long track record of success.

FullerThaler Behav SmCap Grow Inv (FTXNX - Free Report) : 1.29% expense ratio and 0.85% management fee. FTXNX is a Small Cap Growth mutual fund and tends to feature small companies in up-and-coming industries and markets.
