Since Gray CPA joined Hoffman and Swintek .... What a disaster !!!…read more Gray CPA LLC They have had my tax returns since February 2024 ..... and it's September 2024 ... and they are not done with them !!!! They give me excuse after excuse ! Beware ... I am livid ! Service is awful .

Eric emailed me after reading my Google review (within 24 hours of its posting) to ask me to…read morecorrect it. Per Eric, he didn't close Gray CPA but added a new company Real Estate Accounting Experts. We worked with Gray CPA on our TY 2023 returns. Our contract for our TY 2024 returns was with Real Estate Accounting Experts. For the record, we had the exact same horrible experiences with both. We have several LLCs, family trusts and three personal tax returns. We were referred to him using Dave Ramsay's Preferred Provider Network (who has since dropped them from their referral network). To keep this short, they missed most of the IRS and other taxing authorities deadlines, told us they filled them but when we repeatedly asked for copies, discovered they had not been filled. We provided them with all documentation per their contract by their deadline so there was no excuse on their end. They stopped returning voicemails. They stopped responding to emails. They simply disappeared. We ended up driving to their office in Plymouth MN only to speak with the ONE person left in the office (empty desks/offices everywhere you looked). She said she'd just been given her termination notice and wasn't sure what was going on. He really left us with a mess. I noticed some reviews refer to him and Evolution Accounting? Bottomline, we would never work with Eric Gray again regardless of whatever company name he uses.

If I could give negative score I would. I went in last year to get my taxes done on a girlfriend's…read morerecommendation. it was $100 bucks but I'm im my late 20's looking for a deal. What a poor decision that was. Ryan, the owners son is a complete boob. I had a very simple return with the addition of an educational tax credit. I honestly should've done it myself but I didnt. in the consultation he asked if I had used an educational tax credit before, specifically the AOTC which is only allowable for 4 years and 4 years only. I told him yes, he filled out the rest of the return and lo and behold he tells me my return will be about 3 times greater than my best return ever. I told him that is far beyond what I've ever received and he replies with "believe it". I'm ecstatic, telling my buddies I'm going to the casino. the IRS then reduced my "proposed" federal refund by $1000 dollars and I call to find out he picked the wrong credit, the one I specifically told him i dont qualify for. 2 months later I get a letter in the mail from the IRS telling me not only do I not get the $1000 but I owe another 1500 plus interest. I go back to check the IRS record and this dumb fat fuck doesn't even have the courtesy to leave a preparer ID number. In other words, in the eyes of the IRS I have deliver miss-claimed/represented my return and I'm the only one with any accountability. long story short, a $100 bill with the help of this idiot Ryan ended up costing me $1700 on what should've been a very healthy return on a super simple return. They're not accredited, he's not a licensed tax professional, and the place looks like a run down brothel. You live a you learn you know, but I beg you don't give these fucking people your money. Do it yourself or pay a real tax professional, it's worth it in the long run.

David Bredeson filed my taxes in 2013. This year I received a notice that the MN Department of…read moreRevenue found a mistake and now I owe more taxes plus interest for that year. I called David Bredeson's office and the person on the phone told me that "they can't help for anything back that far." I informed her that the statute of limitations allows audits even longer than three years. Then she rudely hung up on me. I wrote a letter to David himself, in case the staff person was not following procedure. David replied with an apology and refunded the interest penalty I owed. Therefore, the staff are bad but David himself is an honest individual.

What's the tell me that I had on unfiled taxes. They are very difficult to get a hold of I've left multiple messages with days going by before someone gets back to me. They've literally done nothing for me except tell me that I have on file taxes in for that they charge me $2000. They claim to be a Christian-based organization I'm sure they're using this just to earn trust steer clear and find someone that has good reviews these guys are charlatans.

He makes filling look easy and simple. He's professional and friendly, asks what's new in life. And he always seems to run on time. Have never had to wait past my appointment time. Last year the office remodeled and expanded into the next office space. More chairs in lobby. Offices more spacious. Plenty of magazines to read while you wait. I also appreciate the client newsletter from VJ Accounting that gets sent out in December. Let's you know what can be done (taxable donations etc.) prior to the end of the year. It explains some of the new/ changed tax laws for the coming year. And it goes through the documentation I will need to bring to process my tax return. Will remain a client for many more years!

While I'm no tax expert, and couldn't tell you if we were really getting every cent due back, I really appreciate that the team meets regularly to review client files and discuss the complexities of individuals.

This year we'll have income streams from no fewer than 11 different sources, and I feel confident ROR will continue to help us stay on top of everything.
