The Process
In-person in Houston or 100% remote — same process, same results, all 50 states.
15-minute call to understand your situation — income sources, deductions, goals. We identify your biggest opportunities before we quote a price.
Upload your W-2s, 1099s, and supporting docs through our encrypted portal. No faxing, no driving across town. We'll send a checklist so you don't miss anything.
Before we file a single form, we do a full deduction audit — comparing itemized vs. standard, finding every credit you qualify for, checking prior year returns for missed opportunities.
We file your return and walk you through exactly what we found. Then we set up a tax strategy for next year so you're not scrambling in April again.
What We Find
Most taxpayers leave money on the table every single year. Here are the categories we audit on every return.
If you work from home — even part-time — you may qualify for the home office deduction. We calculate both the simplified and actual-expense methods and take the larger one.
Business mileage is one of the most underclaimed deductions. At $0.67/mile in 2024, 10,000 business miles = $6,700 deduction. We audit your driving records and maximize this every time.
Houston homeowners often overpay because they don't itemize or miss their full 1098 deduction. We compare itemized vs. standard deduction on every homeowner return.
IRA, SEP-IRA, Solo 401(k) — contributions made before tax day reduce your taxable income dollar for dollar. We identify how much you can contribute and how to structure it.
Self-employed individuals can deduct 100% of health insurance premiums for themselves and their family. Most tax software misses this when combined with marketplace plans.
Capital gains, crypto, RSUs, stock options, rental income — Houston's growing investment class needs strategic tax handling. We minimize your capital gains exposure every year.
