What is tax-ready bookkeeping?

Tax-ready bookkeeping means having your financial records organized, accurate, and properly categorized so your tax preparer or CPA can efficiently prepare your tax return. We ensure all transactions are recorded, accounts are reconciled, and reports are ready - but we don't file your taxes. We prepare the books your tax professional needs.

How much does tax-ready bookkeeping cost?

Tax-ready bookkeeping services start at $300/month for ongoing services, or custom pricing for one-time tax season cleanup based on how many months need to be caught up and transaction volume. We provide transparent quotes upfront with no surprise fees.

We specialize in catch-up bookkeeping! We can get your books current in as little as 2 weeks. We'll record all missing transactions, reconcile accounts, categorize everything correctly, and prepare the reports your tax preparer needs. Most clients getting caught up before tax season need 3-12 months of work done.
