Mark is an excellent accountant and he runs a great business. I always seem to have a better outcome than I expected going in. I?ve dealt with some accountants that weren't responsive or reliable and that is never a problem with BuxMontAccounting. Barb is always a great help when you have to follow up and knows her stuff too. Highly recommend!
I can't recommend Ben from Buxmont accounting enough! From the very first meeting he made me feel at ease with his friendly demeanor and professional expertise. He took time to to understand my financial situation and provided clear actionable advise. He is always available to answer my questions, no matter how small. The level of service I recieve from Ben is exceptional- he genuinely cares about his clients abd goes above and beynd to ensure everything is handled efficently. If you are looking for a tr
This is the first year we used BuxMont Accounting to prepare and file our taxes and it was a great experience. Mark is very knowledgeable and extremely responsive. It was easy and secure to load documents to the portal. Mark provided a file reconciling our documents to the tax returns which I used to confirm the return since it was the first year I didn't prepare the returns myself. We will be using BuxMont from now on.
I would describe Mark using terms like intelligent, wise, grounded, entrepreneurial, focused, family/client oriented, among others that make him phenomenal at running a team of great people that you should be relying on when it comes to three letters: I. R. S. Mark has build the best systems and team of people I have seen to get taxes done efficiently, accurately, and as easy as it?s gets when we?re all stressed about the I. R. S. and our money. Worth every penny for the high-quality work and peace of mind.
I highly recommend Buxmont Accounting. As a first-time business owner, I found taxes and other business-related tasks intimidating. However, Mark took the time to help me set up my tax account and even created an payment/income tracker on Excel. He truly understands the needs of small businesses and first-time business owners, and his mission to help them learn and grow is impeccable. Mark's passion for his work is inspiring, and I wholeheartedly recommend his services.
Mark was very Professional & Courteus answering important questions regarding S Corporation & Sole proprietor LLC Platforms and did not charge me for His Time, due to My Transition period. Thanks!!!
Mark is a great accountant and a great guy. I made an appointment online and he called me on time and gave me excellent advice in regards to my tax situation. Highly recommend..
This is our first year working with Buxmont, and it's been great. Very knowledgeable and professional!
Mark is excellent. The entire staff is helpful and friendly. Yes I know taxes are not normally in the "fun" category but this place makes it an enjoyable process. Questions are answered and issues are resolved quickly. I have been using the services for over 10 years and always can recommend them with confidence.
This was the first Time we worked with Mark. We have been looking for a local accountant to work with for a few years. He listened to our concerns and gave us suggestions on how to proceed. We are glad to have met him and worked with him. We will continue to go back each year.
We have worked with BuxMont Accounting for several years, and have found Mark, Barb and the staff to be so helpful and knowledgeable. They are readily available for any questions or advice. Recently, we had our tax return completed by Benjamin --so promptly and efficiently! Happy to recommend.
I hignly recomend Mark and his team. Very professional and knowledgeable.
Professional company, great staff. We found our new tax preperation firm for sure.
After years of completing my own taxes, I had so many "life events" happen that I had to resort to a professional. We are living in a state where we had no network, so we resorted to the internet to help us find the best possible professional to complete our taxes for us. We found Mark, who had great reviews. We called in February to schedule an appointment, had he was able to get us in before the end of the week. He met with us for about an hour, and had nearly completed our taxes during that time. We had
Amazing experience! Mark not only completed my federal return and multiple state returns to maximize my refund, but he went back several years and found that I had overpaid and was able to get me additional money back! The process was so easy and everything was done electronically and that saved a ton of time for us. I highly recommend Mark and his services for personal and professional services.
I had a great experience using BuxMont Accounting - very quick on scheduling an appointment, flexible on schedule and even met with me on a Saturday. The process was quick and painless, Mark and Barb were very pleasant to deal with. Mark was very informative, friendly, and was able to find opportunities for additional returns that paid for his services multiple times over. I would strongly recommend.
Mark and his staff are very professional. Always able to keep us on track, open with easy communication with what he needed from us. One year we needed an extension and he was easily able to navigate all of that with us. If you are looking for a great accountant for taxes or for your business I highly recommend BuxMont Accountng!
Thrilled to have found such a knowledgable, friendly, and professional accountant. Decided to give BuxMont a try after reading positive Google reviews, and they knocked it out of the park. The rate is very reasonable, and Mark explained everything in a very clear and helpful way throughout the tax filing session. He even offered to make an adjustment to a prior year's return when he found a deduction we hadn't claimed (when we were using another preparer). Easy to schedule. Convenient location and parking.
Mark was great. Was able to answer all of our questions. We knew we would owe but he managed to make it painless and a whole lot less than what we thought! We will definitely be using him again next year for our taxes!
For most of our married life, my wife, Karen, did the taxes. However, a few years ago, the task became too complex. Following the advice of several friends, we contacted Mark at BuxMount Accounting. He's done our taxes for the last two years (2013, 2014). He's fast, accurate, and accessible. I'd recommend him to anyone--and I often do.
Good location with plenty of parking. Professional Service and a very reasonable price. My brother did his taxes through other "Tax services" and got charged way more for a questionable, sub-par service. Even with my situation being in the Military, they were helpful and willing to find answers that they didn't have on hand. Highly recommend.
Mark provides excellent tax services. He knows his stuff and takes the time to make sure he is thorough!
Friendly, knowledgable, and very patient and willing to help you understand why certain options could be beneficial than others. This organization is very efficient and used technology well to expedite the process of filing my taxes the first year, then each succcessive year they have been able to build off of that profile and in no time at all file my taxes. I have been going to them for 4 years now and I am relieved to have found an accountant that is so reliable. Highly recommend!
Was a great experience to have finally met an accountant that kept his word and my stress finally go away. I was a few years behind bc of the last few years I was made to believe the accountant people were doing my taxes and would never call me back. Needlessly to say mark took my overwhelming pile of trash and made it happen. He fixed everything and was very patient with me as I had a million questions bc of the others that screwed me over, he passed me to his worker Ryan who was equally nice and respectfu
Very impressed by Mark. Had a different accountant for the last couple years, and I was so frustrated with the lack of competency. Mark is really on top of the numbers and tax rules, and it had been a breeze working with him.
Finding a reputable accounting firm isn't always the easiest task. These guys are legit and overall good people. Have used for two years in a row now and am very happy.
I am a small business owner and very happy with the service Buxmont Accounting provides my company. Mark is very knowledge and friendly. Would recommend Buxmont accounting to anyone
Really helpful! Thomas is both knowledgeable and generous with his time. That's all on top of being very friendly and personable too. Highly recommend.
Best service and advice year after year ! Amazing staff ! You will not go wrong with Mark and team !
Fantastic experience, wealth of information. Helped me save a lot of money. Happy to have found my new accountant.
I strongly recommend Mr Mark, as he is Organized, Subject mater expert and good person
He was very professional and educated. I will be using him for years.
Great service! Quick and thorough!
Look for a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) license, which ensures they’ve passed rigorous exams and meet state requirements. Check for relevant experience in your industry, additional certifications like CFA or CMA, and membership in professional organizations like the AICPA. Verify their credentials through state licensing boards.
Use online directories like the AICPA, CPAverify, or state CPA societies. Search platforms like Yelp or Google for local CPAs with reviews. Ask for referrals from business associates, friends, or financial advisors. Local chambers of commerce can also provide recommendations.
A CPA is a licensed professional who has passed the CPA exam and met state requirements for education and experience. An accountant may lack this certification and could have varying levels of expertise. For complex tasks like tax audits or financial reporting, a CPA is typically more qualified.
Ask about their experience with your specific financial needs, such as tax preparation, small business accounting, or estate planning. Review their website or LinkedIn for case studies or client testimonials. Inquire about their client base to ensure they handle similar financial situations.
Yes, reviews provide insight into a CPA’s reliability, communication, and performance. Check platforms like Google, Yelp, or the Better Business Bureau for client feedback. Look for patterns in reviews, but verify their authenticity, as some may be biased or outdated.
Visit your state’s Board of Accountancy website or use CPAverify.org to check a CPA’s license status. Confirm their license is active and check for any disciplinary actions or complaints. This ensures they’re in good standing and meet professional standards.
Ask about their experience with your financial needs, fee structure, availability, and communication style. Inquire how they handle tax filings, audits, or financial planning. Ask for references or examples of similar work to assess their expertise and fit.
Fees vary based on location, services, and complexity. Basic tax preparation may cost $150-$500, while business accounting or audits can range from $1,000 to $10,000+. Request a detailed fee structure upfront and compare quotes from multiple CPAs.
Yes, many CPAs offer remote services through secure online platforms for document sharing and virtual consultations. Ensure they use encrypted tools for data security. Remote CPAs can be effective if they understand your local tax laws or business regulations.
During consultations, evaluate their ability to explain complex financial concepts clearly. Ask sample questions about taxes or financial strategies and note their responsiveness and clarity. Good communication ensures you understand their advice and fosters a productive relationship.
Beware of CPAs who guarantee specific tax refunds, lack a valid license, or have disciplinary actions on record. Avoid those with poor communication, vague fee structures, or negative reviews highlighting unethical behavior. Always verify their credentials independently.
Large firms offer more resources and specialized teams but may charge higher fees. Solo practitioners often provide personalized service and lower costs but may have limited availability. Choose based on your needs, budget, and preference for personalized attention.
For individuals, annual meetings for tax preparation may suffice. Businesses may need quarterly or monthly check-ins for bookkeeping, tax planning, or financial reporting. Discuss your needs upfront to establish a meeting schedule that aligns with your financial goals.
Yes, many CPAs handle both, but confirm their expertise in both areas. Ask about their experience managing personal taxes and business accounting simultaneously. Ensure they can balance both without compromising attention to your specific financial needs.
Discuss concerns directly with your CPA to resolve issues. If unresolved, check your contract for termination terms. Seek a new CPA by researching reviews, credentials, and referrals. Request your financial records to ensure a smooth transition to a new professional.
