CPA, Tax Preparation and Accounting in Scottsdale, AZ

K&R Strategic Partners works with Scottsdale clients from our Mesa office, about 25 minutes southeast. We employ credentialed CPAs and licensed Enrolled Agents. The files we see here usually have more moving parts than average: several entities, real estate holdings, investment income, and owners who split the year between two states. Those situations reward planning done in advance and punish a return prepared from a shoebox in April.

Why Scottsdale clients work with us

K&R is a professional services firm with roots in progressive tax work, 1000+ active clients nationwide and a 4.9 rating on Google. Complexity is the usual reason people call: a second property, a partial year in another state, an entity that no longer fits the income it carries.

Comfortable with multiple entities
Holding companies, rental entities and an operating business rarely file cleanly on their own. We look at them together, since a distribution in one usually changes the household return in another.

Responsive without an office visit

WHO WE WORK WITH

How we work

We open with a discovery call to understand the whole picture, including the parts that are not tax questions yet. A complete review of the file follows, which typically turns up missed opportunities alongside a risk or two worth closing. Then comes a written plan, implementation, and year round monitoring so decisions get made in time to matter.

You need an accountant for ongoing consulting, payroll, and proactive tax preparation, not just year-end filing.
Individuals with complex situations
Multiple income sources, investments, and property turn into complicated tax returns and missed deductions without the right CPA.

State rules and local compliance

Arizona taxes the seller through a Transaction Privilege Tax rather than charging buyers a conventional sales tax, and every city applies its own municipal rate on top of the state figure. In Scottsdale, short term residential rental activity carries reporting obligations that catch plenty of owners off guard, particularly ones who bought a property to rent out and assumed the platform handled everything. Add state withholding, the Form A-4 election for new employees and the levy on business equipment, and the calendar fills quickly. We monitor those deadlines and check rates against current Department of Revenue tables before anything is filed.
Most tax firms see you once a year. We build long-term relationships because consistent guidance compounds over time.

FAQs

Get answers to common questions about our tax preparation, accounting, and advisory services for businesses and individuals in your area.
Do you have an office in Scottsdale?
No. Our only location is 6861 E Main St in Mesa, and we serve the north Valley from there. Most of our work runs through the client portal and scheduled calls, so many clients never need to come in.
Are your tax preparers CPAs?
Yes. Yes, credentialed CPAs and licensed Enrolled Agents both sit on staff. An Enrolled Agent is federally licensed to represent taxpayers before the IRS, which matters when a return turns into an audit.
What does a return cost?
Fees depend on entity type, number of schedules and the state of your books, so we quote after the discovery call rather than publishing a price that would not apply to you. K&R gives you the number before any work starts.
Can you handle both my business and personal returns?
Yes. For most founders the two are the same decision, since owner draws, payroll and S corp salary all move the personal number. We plan them together.
Do you work with businesses outside Arizona?
Yes. We file in all 50 states and run multi state payroll, so a company with employees or nexus elsewhere stays with the same team.

Our services

Discover Our Services

Preparation and planning, all year

Personal and corporate returns filed in all 50 states, including partnerships, S corps, rental schedules and multi state work. Preparing the return is the straightforward part. The planning ahead of it decides the outcome: how entities are structured, what the owner takes as compensation, how estimates are set, and when income and expenses land.

Accounting, reporting and part time CFO

Bookkeeping, financial statements, monthly reporting, KPIs and cash flow visibility inside QuickBooks Online, with statements out within 30 days of month end. For owners running more than one entity, consolidated reporting matters more than a single ledger. Part time CFO sessions run three to four times a year, and revenue above $350K comes with a dedicated account manager.

When You Should Hire a Tax Professional for IRS Representation
Not every IRS notice requires professional help, but audits, substantial back taxes, and collection actions like levies or liens are clear signs that handling it alone can cost you far more than hiring the right representation.
