Established Scottsdale Tax Practice — High Margin — Owner Retiring
Business Description
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-established tax practice in one of the Phoenix area's most desirable, fast-growing markets. The firm has built a strong reputation over many years, generating consistent, high-quality revenue almost entirely from repeat clients and referrals with virtually no active marketing in place. The owner is retiring and seeking a qualified buyer to carry the practice forward.
Financial Highlights:
Revenue: $119,275 (2024) → $124,845 (2025) → $133,560 (2026), consistent year-over-year growth
Annual operating expenses (excluding occupancy): under $7,000 — software, insurance, client portal, and office supplies
Seller's Discretionary Earnings: approximately $112,000–$127,000 depending on year
Owner-operated with no staff; estimated workload is approximately 500 hours per season (28 days in-office at 10 hrs/day during peak season, plus ~150 hours remote)
This is an exceptionally lean, high-margin operation well suited to an owner-operator looking to expand their book of business with opportunity to cross sell services as well
Detailed tax return and financials will be made available in person to qualified buyers following a vetting/NDA process.
Seller owns the building the practice occupies. No lease in place currently. He is open to negotiate leasing the space back in the sale if desired.
