Home Ownership Tax DeductionI have really felt singled out and upset the last few years tax season came along.  It has been exceptionally challenging to launch a business and then learn about all the taxes I have to pay on top of it.

Then I met Cooper McGeorge, my accountant.  He helped me realize that taxes are really a measure of your success.  The more you pay to the government the more successful you are.  Optimism aside, deep down, nobody really enjoys paying taxes, including myself.  We all dream of a world where we can control where and who we share our hard earned dollars go.

Having a smart tax consultant like Cooper for a friend means I can take full advantage of allowable tax ride offs.  One of my biggest ride offs is actually not my business though, it’s my home.

That’s because the government really loves home owners.  They work hard, just as I do, to keep the American dream of home ownership alive.  They don’t go negotiate on homes and advise clients, though.  They provide tax incentives to help make home ownership more affordable.

Taking full advantage of home ownership government incentives

The trouble is Tax law is exceptionally complicated.  Where do you begin to take advantage of these home ownership tax benefits?

Nobody including yourself has time to maintain a job and read up on tax law every day.  That’s where good accountants like Cooper earn their keep.  I can tell you Cooper has many times over earned his fees in what he’s saved me in taxes.

Now he can help you do the same!

I brought Cooper into the office to explain about tax ride offs home owners can take advantage of.
