Mount Dora's hometown CPA. I do the monthly bookkeeping myself for Donnelly Street shops, B&Bs, and festival-season businesses — from $500/mo.
I am a licensed Florida CPA (license #AC62625, firm #AD72267) based right here in Mount Dora who also does monthly bookkeeping for local small businesses — downtown shops on Donnelly Street, lakeside B&Bs like Heron Cay and the Lakeside Inn, festival-season hospitality operators, and the antique dealers and booth vendors around Renninger's Twin Markets. Bookkeeping is a flat monthly engagement: $500 per month covers transaction categorization, reconciliations, and CPA-reviewed financial statements, with the software included — I run client books on Forty Two Six, the platform I built in-house, so there is no setup fee, no contract term, and no QuickBooks subscription to buy. You work with one person: the same licensed CPA keeps your books each month and signs your tax return in the spring (returns quoted separately). Free 15-minute consultation: (407) 417-1064.
My tax pricing is published and flat: individual returns (Form 1040) from $425, S-Corporation returns (Form 1120-S) from $1,625, with year-round planning included for monthly bookkeeping clients. I understand the seasonal revenue cycles from Mount Dora's 30+ annual festivals (Arts Festival, Blueberry Festival, Craft Fair, the Christmas lighting season), tourism and hospitality accounting (tip reporting, occupancy taxes, inventory), and the unique financial needs of Lake County businesses. My practice runs on a secure client portal with real-time dashboards, automatic bank integrations via Plaid, and encrypted document storage. I serve Mount Dora, Eustis, Tavares, Leesburg, Apopka, and the greater Central Florida area.
Renninger's Twin Markets on US 441 — the antique center and weekend flea-and-farmer's market that pull dealers from across the Southeast — anchor a genuinely local accounting niche: booth vendors, consignment sellers, and antique dealers with inventory-heavy, cash-and-card-mixed books. That work has real specifics: hobby-loss rules versus operating as a true dealer, inventory accounting for one-of-a-kind goods, Florida sales tax on consignment arrangements, and 1099-K reconciliation for dealers who also sell on eBay or Etsy. Downtown, the Donnelly Street retail row and the shops around the Modernism Museum and the Lakeside Inn turn over with the festival calendar — I keep their books on the same monthly CPA close I use for every client, so festival-weekend revenue is categorized and reconciled before the next event arrives.
