Default Recommended Tax Preparer

Ok- so another thing we need right away when we move in February is a tax preparer, preferably a CPA. I usually do our taxes myself but this year with moving I just have too much on my plate.

Not only the move, but it is our first year as retirees, and we just sold and bought a home, and we have a lot going on and a big learning curve to deal with. I am thinking going forward we might just need to utilize the services of a tax accountant every year, even though our returns have been fairly simple in the past.

Would like someone in Meredith or Gilford/Laconia for convenience. I want to set up an appointment right away for March as we will be in a flux very soon and I want to make sure we get our taxes done on time.

Go...

There must be some decent tax preparers locally, but we tried several firms and were not satisfied, so we returned to our old CPA in suburban Philadelphia. This has worked out well over the past several years.

I am a CPA but do not practice in the area however I have worked with Graham and Graham in Laconia. I worked with Jeff and his firm in the past and found them to be very knowledgeable thorough and reasonably priced.

Default Tax preparer

I'm a business owner and the family has used Alan Beane Assoc. for decades. Very competent and knowledgeable.
I am certified CMA so I need to be knowledgeable in tax statutes. I double check their work. Excellent results!
If your taxes are complicated, do not go to tax preparers that are not associated with a CPA firm. They are only knowledgeable in simple transactions.
