Residential Contractors
TAX PLANNING & PREPARATION
Custom home builders, remodelers, and residential trade contractors face tax questions most preparers never see: deposits on jobs in progress, the home construction contract rules, owner pay, and when to buy equipment or trucks. We plan your business and personal taxes together during the year and prepare your returns from that same plan, so nothing falls through the cracks between strategy and filing.
BOOKKEEPING
Clean books are the base for everything else. We keep your QuickBooks current every month, reconcile your bank and credit card accounts, track costs by job, and separate deposits from earned revenue so you know which homes are actually making money. If your books are behind, we can clean them up first and then keep them on track.
CFO & CONTROLLER SERVICES
As your company grows, you need more than a tax return once a year. We give you monthly financial statements you can trust, job costing that shows real margins by project, cash flow forecasts, and a clear read on pricing and overhead. Think of us as your part-time finance department, without the cost of a full-time hire.
ENTITY & OWNER PAY
Many residential builders start as a sole proprietor or a single-member LLC and never revisit it. As revenue grows, the right structure and a reasonable salary can lower self-employment tax and open the door to retirement plans that cut taxable income. We review your setup each year and tell you plainly whether a change makes sense.
TAX SAVINGS REVIEW
Wondering if your last preparer missed something? Send us your most recent return and this year's numbers. We will compare them against the deductions and strategies residential builders and remodelers commonly qualify for, and give you a short, plain-English list of what you could be saving.
