Bookkeeping and Tax Services for Magnolia Greens
Bookkeeping, tax, and accounting services for small businesses in Magnolia Greens. Based in Jacksonville, serving Leland and the Cape Fear region.
Accounting Support for Magnolia Greens
Magnolia Greens is a master-planned community on the west side of Leland, just across the Cape Fear River from Wilmington. The neighborhood is built around the golf course and has grown alongside the rest of Brunswick County. The people who live here are a mix of retirees who relocated from out of state, families who chose Leland for the quieter pace, and professionals who run their own businesses from a home office or a small space nearby.
We provide small business accounting, bookkeeping and tax services in Jacksonville, NC and extend that same support to business owners in Magnolia Greens. Records stay current, taxes get filed on time, and you have someone credentialed to call when a question comes up. Everything is handled remotely from our Jacksonville office, which keeps overhead down and pricing reasonable.

Magnolia Greens Businesses We Work With
The businesses operating in and around Magnolia Greens tend to be small and owner-run. Real estate professionals working the Leland and Wilmington market. Consultants and advisors who relocated and kept their practices. Home service providers covering Brunswick County. Healthcare practitioners with offices nearby. None of them have an accounting department, and most do not need one. What they need is reliable financial support that fits the way they actually work.
We work with businesses in roughly the $100K to $3M revenue range. Big enough that the books matter and tax filings get complicated. Not so big that hiring a full-time bookkeeper makes sense. Our role is to fill that gap with consistent monthly work and direct communication.

What does monthly bookkeeping cost?
Full-service bookkeeping starts at $225 per month. The exact rate depends on your monthly expense volume and the complexity of your accounts. We provide a flat quote after a quick review of your records.
Can you help if I have not kept up with my books?
Yes. Catch-up bookkeeping is one of the most common ways we start with a new client. We reconstruct prior months or years, get the records current, and then move into a monthly schedule so things stay that way.
Do you handle both personal and business taxes?
We prepare business tax returns for all our small business clients and personal returns for the owners of those businesses. Gina Bertone is an IRS Enrolled Agent, so we can also represent you if you receive an IRS notice or audit letter.
