Tax time shouldn’t be the first look at the year.

Your return is no longer simple.
Investments, a rental property, a side business or income in another state. Brent prepares your federal and state returns and tells you up front what affects the price.
Life changed this year.
A move, a new job, a home purchase, a growing family. Changes like these can affect your return, and they are worth discussing when it is prepared.
