CPA in Greenville, North Carolina
Both of our partners grew up in Greenville and went to ECU. Now we have an office here too, on Country Club Drive, working with practices, professionals, and property owners across Pitt County.
Greenville · Pitt County
Greenville isn't a market we expanded into. It's where Blake and Alan are from. Both grew up here, both went to East Carolina University, and both still know the town well enough that the shorthand doesn't need explaining.
The economy here has a different shape than the coast. Healthcare and the university anchor it, and that pulls a particular set of clients: medical and dental practices, physicians and faculty with more than one income stream, professional and consulting firms, and a steady supply of rental property tied to the student population.
It also means fewer seasonal problems and more structural ones. The questions we field from Greenville tend to be about how a practice is set up, how an owner pays themselves, and how to handle income arriving from several directions at once.

Practice owners
When you own the practice and the job
Running a practice means doing two jobs. You see patients or clients all day, and then you're the owner — payroll, hiring, the lease, the tax bill. The second job usually gets whatever's left, which is rarely enough.
What we take on is that second job's paperwork, and more importantly the planning that goes with it. The point isn't a tidier file. It's knowing before December what the year looks like, instead of finding out in April.
FAQ
Questions we get from Greenville clients
Yes. Our Greenville office is at 601-G Country Club Drive, and our original office is in Atlantic Beach. Greenville is also home for both partners, so we're around regularly either way. You can meet in person, or run the whole relationship through the secure portal, phone, and email. Whichever fits how you work.
Yes, that's a common size for us. We set payroll up alongside the bookkeeping so the two agree, and we handle the quarterly and annual filings.
That's a good reason to use one firm. When the same people see the whole picture, planning is far more useful than it is when three parties each see a slice.
You work with a licensed CPA who'll be the same person next year, and we're available outside of filing season. The bigger difference is planning — a seasonal preparer records what already happened, and by then most of the useful decisions are behind you.
