Bookkeeping, payroll and tax preparation
Clean books and clear taxes for U.S. small businesses and rental hosts
I'm Taz, a U.S. tax preparer. I keep the books, run payroll and prepare tax returns for small businesses across the U.S.: restaurants, medical practices, construction companies, service businesses, and my specialty, rental owners and Airbnb hosts with an S-corp. Fully remote, plain English, no guesswork at tax time.

Who I help
U.S. small businesses that want their numbers right, all year
My clients run restaurants, medical practices, construction and trade businesses, consulting and service companies, and rental properties. Some are sole owners, some are S-corps, partnerships, C-corps or nonprofits.
My specialty is short-term and long-term rental owners, especially Airbnb and VRBO hosts who run their rentals through an S-corp, often next to a W-2 job. If that's you, start with short-term rental bookkeeping or the S-Corp Savings Audit.
Questions clients bring me
"My books are months behind. Where do I even start?"
We catch up oldest month first, reconcile every account, and get you to a file you can trust and a return you can sign.
"Is my S-corp actually saving me money?"
Many owners formed an S-corp on advice and never checked whether salary, payroll and reimbursements were set up to make it worth it.
"Who can prepare all my returns, business and personal?"
I prepare individual, partnership, S-corp, C-corp and nonprofit returns, from books that match, so nothing falls between them.
"Can my Airbnb loss offset my W-2 income?"
Not automatically. Your average guest stay and your hours decide it. Read how the two tests work.

Meet Taz
A teacher, not a salesman
I've prepared U.S. returns for more than six years, first for U.S. bookkeeping and tax firms, now for my own clients. I work remotely from Dhaka, Bangladesh, with U.S. clients only. I'm not a CPA or enrolled agent, and I can't represent you in an IRS audit. I tell you that up front, and I tell you where my work ends.
