Bookkeeping & CPA Services for Westshore Businesses
CPA-led bookkeeping, tax preparation, and advisory services for small businesses in Tampa's Westshore district. Local expertise from a nearby firm.
CPA-Led Bookkeeping for Westshore
Westshore is one of the Tampa Bay area’s busiest commercial corridors. Between the office towers along Cypress Street, the restaurants clustered near International Plaza, and the retail anchored by two major shopping centers, thousands of businesses operate within a few square miles. Many of those businesses are small enough that the owner is still involved in day-to-day finances but large enough that managing those finances alone no longer works.
We provide bookkeeping, business tax preparation, payroll, and advisory services for small businesses in the Westshore area. Our firm is CPA-led and based in Riverview, just south on the Selmon Expressway. Most of our clients prefer working remotely because it’s faster, but we’re close when meeting in person matters.
Full-Service Bookkeeping

Tax Preparation
Tax Preparation
Business and personal tax returns prepared by a CPA. We handle all the required schedules, deductions, and filings. When we also do your bookkeeping, the handoff at tax time is seamless because the records are already organized.
Payroll

We run payroll, deposit taxes, file quarterly reports, and issue year-end W-2s and 1099s. Your employees get paid on time and the compliance deadlines are met without you tracking any of it.
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
If your books are months or years behind, we start by getting them current. We reconstruct what’s missing, clean up what’s wrong, and deliver a solid foundation to build on going forward.
Westshore Businesses We Work With
The Westshore district attracts a particular mix of businesses. Professional services firms that want the location and the airport accessibility. Restaurants and hotels that benefit from business traveler traffic. Retail operations supported by International Plaza and Westshore Plaza. And the service companies that keep all of it running. Each one has its own financial complexity, but they share a common need for clean records and someone who answers the phone when questions come up.
We typically work with owner-operated businesses doing anywhere from $50K to several million in annual revenue. Big enough to need professional bookkeeping and tax support, not big enough to justify a full accounting department. That gap is exactly where our firm fits.
Professional Services
Professional Services
Law firms, consultants, financial advisors, and other professional offices concentrated along the Westshore corridor. We handle overhead tracking, proper expense categorization, and financial reporting that partners and principals can review each month.
Restaurants and Hospitality
Restaurants and Hospitality
The restaurant scene near International Plaza and along the Kennedy Boulevard and Boy Scout Boulevard corridors is active. High volume, tight margins, tip reporting, and sales tax all need consistent attention. We track food cost and labor so you know what each month actually produced.
Retail
Retail
Two major shopping centers and the surrounding storefronts create a dense retail market. We manage inventory accounting, sales tax filings, and the daily reconciliation that retail businesses require to stay on top of cash flow.
Real Estate
Real Estate
Westshore’s commercial real estate market generates work for brokers, agents, property managers, and investors. Whether you’re managing rental properties or closing deals, we handle the bookkeeping and provide budgeting and cash flow forecasting so you can plan around the uneven income that comes with the business.
Common Questions
You're based in Riverview. How does that work for Westshore businesses?
Riverview is a quick trip down the Selmon Expressway. Most of our work happens digitally regardless, so your location in Westshore doesn't slow anything down. When an in-person meeting makes sense, we're nearby.
What does monthly bookkeeping cost?
Starting at $200 per month. The exact price depends on your monthly expense volume and complexity. We'll quote you a flat rate after learning about your business.
Do you prepare business and personal tax returns?
Yes. Business returns start at $250 and personal returns start at $200. We handle federal and Florida filings, and we're also licensed in Virginia if that's relevant to your situation.
My books haven't been touched in months. Can you help?
That's a common starting point. We do catch-up bookkeeping to bring everything current, then transition into monthly service so it stays that way.
Can you handle sales tax for my retail or restaurant business?
Yes. We manage the full sales tax cycle, from tracking rates to filing on time. Florida sales tax has its own rules and we stay on top of them for you.
