"I've been searching for a CPA, ever since acquiring some rental properties... And Certified Advisors has fit the bill! I've been working with Andy, who has been great. He's very knowledgeable and responsive. I feel like he has my best interest at heart, and isn't just trying to rack up an invoice. So happy to have found him, and look forward to continuing working with him in the future!"

★★★★★

"My girlfriend and I both started our own online businesses in 2020, and this was the first year where I felt like my taxes got too complicated to file by myself. Certified Advisors was a great solution for me and really helped to take the pressure off. Andy basically took all of my stress away immediately, and I feel much better now."
