How our pricing works
Each return type has a base fee that covers a standard, complete return. If your situation includes additional items — a rental, a business, investment sales, an out-of-state return — each is a clearly listed add-on. The fees below are minimums; your final fee is the base plus only the items that actually apply to you. Anything outside this menu is billed at $250/hour, always quoted before we begin.
