Two glass towers on a downtown street in Houston, with the words A time

Business Tax Advisor Houston. Choose a time and talk through the books.

The call is with Steven Palmieri. Tax CFO names the role. Entrepreneur's CFO names the practice. Bring the books, the return, or the year you still want to shape.

Hold a time

Have one month within reach.

Bring the newest statement the bank still stands behind, or the question that never made it into a spring quote. Messy is fine. Include the weekend that does not look like the rest of the month.

If the rodeo made March look strange in the deposits, say so. A bid that still uses the old permitting fee belongs in that same note, next to the month.

People who say Neartown mean Montrose. It sits west of downtown, Allen Parkway along one edge and the Southwest Freeway along the other. A shop there starts from the same kind of note as a job across town.

What the half hour is for.

One month is enough for the call. We look at whether cash and the bank already agree, whether anyone is named for July, and whether a quote is quietly asking for a signature. When the file does not need help yet, we say that out loud.

Nothing is hired on the call. A written engagement, signed by both sides, is what names the scope and the price. Walking away is a complete answer. Questions on this page do not come with a surprise fee.

Price follows the file. It moves with the transaction count, the accounts that stay open, whether payday is already set up, how far the books have slipped, and whether the return is included. We say the number on that call, before anything starts.

The dates stay with the form.

There is no room here you can visit. A franchise report due in May, and a property list due in April, follow the address on the form. Calling from another building does not move those dates.

Houston ISD is the biggest public school district in the state, and its calendar is separate from the city's. A family business plans around that school calendar the same way it plans around the franchise report.

Bring one real month. If March looked unlike February, that month is a fine place to start. A tidied story is less useful than the deposit that actually hit. Leave a name and a number that rings, and we can hold the time.

Choose a time.

The time grid waits until you ask for it. Use it when you want to talk through the books, the return, or the year ahead. If the squares stay empty, the phone under the legal links still reaches this practice.

If the grid stays blank.

The footer number reaches the same practice that reads the form on this page. Words typed on the books page or the return page reach the same person who reads this form. The person who closes the month reads those words before a call is placed.

Leave the call with three notes in your own words. Which old month the bank can still prove. Which current month is ready to close. Which choice is still open before December closes.

From Steven Palmieri.

Your name and a number that rings are enough. Bring the month a statement can still prove.
