Ask for Vassil…read more Super professional and great communication. I interviewed 4 accountants before talking to Vassil. In fact, I had settled on a firm on the Peninsula, but they were unresponsive with some early tax questions that I had so I kept looking and found B&H. And then I fired the other guy--and didn't get so much as an email response. Not only was Vassil much better at communication that the peninsula firm but his rates were better too. He worked me through a complicated issue at the end of the year w/ an IRA to Roth conversion. Anyway, I'm all about do-it-yourself, but if things are getting too complicated, you should probably call a pro :-P

The next year we were essentially assigned to someone else because who we saw previously was no longer accepting new clients...but we weren't new. Reaching whoever they assign you to work with is nearly impossible. After an initial apt weeks went by for very basic things and I was calling or emailing every few days in a panic as the deadline to file quickly approached. Eventually an extension had to be requested when all needed documents had been completed in Feb. The back and forth email and call correspondence was time consuming and ridiculous. We kept having to reach out to check the status and after weeks would get a response to schedule yet another appointment. Not personable, not friendly, poor communication. They likely take on too many clients because they care about profit over people.

We were in a huge jam needing to provide documents prepared by a CPA to verify my income for my business. I had called another service who said my business "wasn't worth it" I was so upset and feeling like I was losing it with worry, ready to give up. I asked the universe and God to put the right person in my path. And then I found his number online. He is kind, professional, and helped me without charging me an arm and a leg. Fast. I'm a creative, not a numbers person. I just don't understand this side of things well. I will use his services from this day forward every time I need this kind of work.

Came to see Sal, my CPA for my 2019 taxes today and I can't begin to say how grateful and thankful…read morei am to have him on my side!! Here are my highlights for Sal: 1.) For starters on 5/4/2020 when Bank of America's website was finally ready to take on SBA's PPP applications - it was highly publicly stated its a "first come, first serve" type of fund for businesses primarily. I texted my cpa Sal that very morning at 6:45am and let him know he needed to get me a 1040 schedule c draft "PRONTO!" as 3 day later Bank of America said they taken on 3 million applicants within just the first day or so... Sal was a team player all the way! He returned my text at 7:20am and emailed me 1st version of 2019 1040 draft before 11:00am then we revised it and uploaded submitted all before 12:00 noon and as fast as we acted i was still consider by Bank of America their 2nd batch... In the end with Sal's help i was one of the fortunate business owners able to submitted 5/4 and get funded by 6/4. 2.) In my younger years i've dealt with HR Block then as i grew older and became business owners and income stream became more complex i had met a handful of CPA's and all in all they were very poker face or reptilian like creatures very similar to lawyers. With that said, Sal is completely different!! His more of a friend. A friend that has your back when you are in need + that gives you sound advice on a broader scope of things. And Sal does this with his warm genuine down to earth personality and empathy while being effective efficient and diligent. 3.) I used to be in residential mortgage for close to a decade and the good mortgage consultants are always VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE and up to date with the underwriting guidelines - its the only way you can make numbers work! Same with taxes. Can't make the puzzles fit if you are not up to date with what's going on. The CARES Act allows taxpayers to carry back losses incurred during 2018-2020 for five years... But when i mentioned this to Sal he immediately told me even before the Cares Act that was possible its just the Cares Act open up to a lot more deductibles... Wow... See what i am talking about?! I can sleep good tonight now! 4.) Strategy is crucial especially when economy is at snail pace. Many folks aren't aware but IRS does accept compromise numbers followed by installments of course your side of reasoning needs to make sense to them but i think given the circumstances it makes a strong argument. So if you are looking or thinking or wondering about how you can improve on areas in your taxes - look no further give Sal a call!! As the extended deadlines for taxes are 10/15/ 2020 you might just get additional tax refunds back if you find the right professional to set you up right.

I also heard horror stories about folks who didn't keep their eye on the taxes from the sale of options and either 1) sold more stock to pay taxes or 2) ended up paying back-taxes. I didn't want to be that horror story. Harry Huey to the rescue! I was introduced to this business through his nephew: "Uncle Harry can help you!" What is complex to me is child's play to Mr. Huey and he usually turns around my taxes in two weeks -- even when I make an appointment late into tax season. His wife will have your tax package (summary, copy of tax completed tax forms, e-file authorization and labeled envelopes and payment stubs) ready for you when you pick it up. Mr. Huey will be seated in front of a gorgeous window view of the San Francisco Bay to review your taxes. If you ask, he can run through scenarios of "here's how much less your tax bill would be if you owned a place". The view is my "happy place" to look out at after I see my tax bill. For me, it's well worth it to shell a few hundred dollars for someone to handle my taxes. And that rounding error a few years ago? My tax bill ended up being a quarter of my own calculation.
