CPA, tax accountant and bookkeeping for Germantown clients, delivered remotely

Sound familiar?

• You want numbers you can act on during the year.

  Current statements show how each month performed while there is still time to respond, not months later.

  26% of the 2022 tax returns filed from the ZIP codes 20874 and 20876 that serve Germantown reported business or professional income (IRS Statistics of Income, individual income tax statistics by ZIP code, tax year 2022; the ZIP codes extend beyond Germantown).

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

  When the books are kept current all year, the return starts from numbers that are already reconciled.

• Living or working across the state line

  Living in one state and working in another, moving during the year, or running a business with employees or customers across a state line can mean more than one state tax return.

• 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.
