Tax planning & advisory

The number in April is decided long before April. We look at it while you can still change it.

  • S‑corp election. Whether the switch pays for itself, modelled with your actual numbers.
  • Salary versus distributions. Reasonable compensation you can defend.
  • Quarterly estimates. Set so April isn’t a surprise.
  • Entity choice and timing. Decisions made in October, not discovered in April.
  • Rental property. Depreciation, repairs versus improvements, passive-loss limits.

Also Tax resolution

Most notices are solvable. We start by decoding what the letter actually says and what the deadline really is.

Questions

The questions owners eventually ask.

“Should my business be an S‑Corp?”
Sometimes. It depends on your profit, how you pay yourself, and what it costs to run. We model it with your actual numbers, not a rule of thumb, and tell you plainly whether the switch pays for itself.
“Am I paying myself the right way?”
Salary versus distributions is where owners overpay, or invite an audit. We set reasonable compensation you can defend, and structure the rest so the savings are real.
“What can my rental actually deduct?”
Depreciation, repairs versus improvements, passive-loss limits, and what happens when you sell. Schedule E rewards owners who track the right things; we tell you which ones.
“Why do I owe so much every April?”
Because nobody planned. Quarterly estimates, entity choice, and timing decisions made in October change the number in April. We do the planning, not just the filing.
“What do I do about this letter from the IRS?”
Most notices are solvable, and almost none are as bad as they read. We decode what it actually says, what the deadline really is, and the cleanest path to closing it.
