U.S. tax and accounting for business owners and real estate investors

Tax preparation, bookkeeping, and year-round tax guidance. We serve clients in the U.S. and abroad, with remote service in English and Spanish.

No SSN? You can still form the LLC, get the EIN, and open the account.

Sandra files the ITIN and the entity, then the banking setup — in the order it has to happen. As a Certifying Acceptance Agent she certifies your documents herself, so your passport never goes in the mail.

Where do you stand

Where do you stand right now?

Entity first, then the tax year

We pick the entity for how you will actually be taxed, then set the filings and the bookkeeping around it before the first deadline.

Credentials
  • IRS Enrolled Agent

    Federally licensed by the U.S. Treasury since 2010. Not a CPA — an Enrolled Agent, admitted to practice before the IRS.

  • IRS-authorized CAA

    As an IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA), Sandra certifies your identity documents for ITIN applications, so your original passport never leaves your hands.

  • English and Spanish

    Every consultation, document and filing handled fully in either language, start to finish.

  • All 50 states

    Unlimited representation rights before the IRS, wherever the property or the entity sits.

Run the numbers

Two questions we get every week, with the arithmetic in front of you.

What the buyer withholds at closing, and what a withholding certificate could change.

$450,000

Illustration assumes a 20% gain on the sale taxed at 20%. Your figures will differ.

FIRPTA requires the buyer to withhold a percentage of the gross sale price, not of your gain. A Form 8288-B withholding certificate asks the IRS to reduce that to the tax actually expected on the sale.

ItemAmount
Withheld at closing — default 15% of the gross price$67,500
Estimated tax on the gain, with a Form 8288-B certificate$18,000
Difference you keep at closing$49,500
