“Before engaging our firm for tax planning, Joe, a successful Dentist had federal tax liability of $174,000 and an effective tax rate of 24.4%. Through our advisory service we identified that Joe could significantly reduce his tax bills by strategically acquiring short-term rental properties. With our guidance he acquired two short-term rentals and was able to reduce his federal tax liability to only $43,000 and effective rate to only 5.56% the following year. Joe plans to continue using this strategy to minimize his tax liability each year.”

Generally no. However, we do believe good tax planning is the foundation to minimizing taxes and have a few different ways we can help you get a tax plan in place. You can learn more about your tax planning options here.
At Hall, we truly believe that every real estate investor should have a Tax Plan in place. It's the actions you take throughout the year, sometimes years in advance, that will impact the results of your tax return.
That is why we strongly encourage real estate investors to go through one of our tax planning services prior to onboarding for tax preparation services.

Real estate tax is often more complex than other businesses, and many generalist CPAs will rush through the preparation and filing process which often leads to errors that can cost you money.
What’s more, most generalist CPAs aren’t even aware of the opportunities available to you and thus miss them, also costing you money. But it gets worse, not only will they miss opportunities, but sometimes they make mistakes that will cost you, even more, to correct down the road.
At Hall, we pride ourselves on the ability to prepare your return accurately while at the same time ensuring that you're not missing out on opportunities for substantial tax savings.
If you want your return filed for the lowest cost possible and risk missing out on opportunities for tax savings, or worse having to pay more to have it fixed later, you’ll have to go work with the other guys. That’s just not us.
We currently extend all of our first-year clients for quality control purposes to ensure we are preparing your return accurately, and that you're not missing out on major opportunities for tax savings during our first year working together.
In addition, this prevents you from having to rush to get all the information and documentation to us before the filing deadline.
After working with 800+ clients over the last five years, we found this process leads to a better experience and results for our clients.
Then the following year we can generally file your returns on time assuming we have all the information and documentation to us before the requested deadline.
Yes, with the exception of our administration staff, all members of the firm are required to take at least 40 hours of continuing education (CPE) per year.
In addition to CPE, we have professional research software and subscriptions that provide updates on changes to the tax code.

When transferring data to and from potential clients we use Google Suite, and for clients, we use CCH Axcess.
Both platforms meet SOC 2 compliance, a framework designed by the AICPA to safeguard the storage and transfer of customer data in the cloud.

Hall CPA PLLC, real estate CPAs and advisors, helped me save $37,818 on taxes by recommending and assisting with a cost segregation study. With strategic multifamily rehab and the $2,500 de minimus safe harbor plus cost segregation, taxes on my real estate have been non-existent for a few years (and that includes offsetting large capital gains from the sale of property).
