Returns, books, and the strategy in between.

S-corp and partnership returns, monthly bookkeeping that actually stays current, payroll, and the advanced planning that keeps more of what you make — at flat fees instead of an hourly clock, from a licensed CPA.

Core Returns

Starting prices — confirmed with a quick consult.

Business returns vary too much for a flat public number to be honest. These are real starting prices; a short conversation about your entity, revenue, and complexity confirms the final quote before anything is billed.

Schedule C (bundled with your personal return) $650 starting

Sole prop return bundled with your 1040 — a discount over filing the two separately, and it means I see your whole tax picture, not just half of it.

S-Corp Return (Form 1120-S) $1,500 starting

Federal 1120-S and California Form 100S, K-1s prepared for every shareholder.

Partnership Return (Form 1065) $1,500 starting

Federal 1065 and California Form 565 or 568 (LLC), K-1s prepared for every partner.

Not sure which entity you are? That's the entity selection consult below.

If you're still deciding between an LLC, S-corp, or partnership, start there before you pick a return type.

Bookkeeping Rates

Monthly bookkeeping, priced by volume.

This is the recurring side of the business — reconciled books, closed on the same date every month, so tax season is never a scramble.

Business Consulting

Coaching, models, and deal support.

Built on years of real estate asset management, financial modeling, and investor reporting, applied to businesses of every type and size.

Business Coaching

Ongoing one-on-one sessions on pricing, margins, cash flow, hiring, and growth plans, with your own numbers in front of us every time.

Start coaching →

Financial Modeling

Budgets, cash-flow forecasts, and investor-ready models built in Excel that you can actually use, whether you're raising money, borrowing, or planning the next year.

Acquisitions & Dispositions

Buying or selling a business or property: underwriting, financial due diligence, deal structure, and the tax consequences, before you sign.

Discuss a deal →
Scope: deal work covers the numbers and the tax side: underwriting, diligence, and structure. I don't act as a business broker or real estate agent, and I don't recommend specific securities.
Advanced & Niche Services

The higher-value work most tax preparers skip.

Flat-fee advisory engagements — priced once, done once, no hourly clock running while you wait.

On cost segregation: I coordinate the engagement with a qualified engineering firm that performs the actual study — I don't perform cost segregation studies myself. My fee covers managing the process and applying the results to your return.
Tax-Smart Financial Planning

Your business finances and your personal finances aren't really separate.

I already see your business numbers — owner's draws, reasonable comp, cash flow through the year. This extends that into practical guidance on your own finances. It's tax and financial planning, not investment management.

Personal budgeting and cash-flow planning around variable business income
Tax-smart saving — timing and account choices that lower what you owe
Retirement account basics for owners — Solo 401(k), SEP IRA, and how they interact with entity structure
Planning around existing tax debt — what to prioritize while paying it down
What this isn't: I'm not a registered investment adviser. I won't recommend specific stocks, funds, or other securities, or manage your portfolio. The guidance here is tax and financial planning tied to your return.
If The IRS Reaches Out

IRS & California FTB representation.

As a CPA, I have unlimited practice rights before the IRS — audits, notices, payment plans, appeals, and collections, whether or not I prepared the return. I also represent clients before the California Franchise Tax Board. You don't have to sit across from an agent and explain things alone.

$250/hr  ·  $750 retainer to start

How it works: you sign an IRS power of attorney (Form 2848), plus the FTB's power of attorney form for California matters. From then on, the IRS or FTB deals with me — calls, letters, and meetings — and I keep you informed at every step.
