- I have been a Client since Tax Year of 1997. My experience at Beach Cities Tax & Books has been far more than 5 Stars. They will help with any questions about Personal, Commercial, and those that are Required for filing the 1099. Property Purchase questions; not Escrow, I believe. Knowledge of latest Tax Laws to help get Fair and Good Returns, and if Owed to Uncle Sam's I.R.S. will be what is owed. They will Stand with You if an Audit is required. I could write all day about being a Client, just give them a try. For a Handicap Entrance, call first and ask, when making an appointment.Paul Bakey
- I first met Monique 10 yrs ago. At that time I was in terrible shape with the IRS. was behind in taxes and desperate. She calmly got me through that difficult time and now I'm a "timely" filer. If you are in over your head or anxious about numbers Beach Cities is the place to goAl Potash
