Tax Strategy & Compliance for Dallas Locals
The Problem: Too many Dallas residents only think about taxes at filing time—leading to missed opportunities and unexpected liabilities. While Texas has no state income tax, individuals still face federal obligations, real estate considerations, and investment-related tax strategies that require year-round planning.
The Solution: At Dark Horse CPAs, we believe in No Surprises. We partner with Dallas individuals and families year-round to implement tax-saving and deferral strategies, manage real estate and investment planning, and ensure compliance with federal rules. Every engagement includes proactive planning to help you keep more of what you earn and move forward with confidence.

REED COVAR, CPA, ASSOCIATE PRINCIPAL
“Many CPAs overlook regular client check-ins, but proactive reviews are key to uncovering opportunities and optimizing tax planning. At minimum, every engagement should include an annual review. This ensures you maximize your CPA relationship, achieve tax savings, and gain clarity for the future.”


Tax Strategy & Accounting Solutions for Dallas Businesses
The Problem: Many Dallas business owners lack timely financial data—or the strategic tax guidance needed to grow. While Texas’s lack of state income tax simplifies some areas, businesses must still manage federal compliance, payroll, sales tax, and quarterly estimated tax payments. Without proper guidance, these obligations can become costly and disrupt cash flow.
The Solution: At Dark Horse CPAs, we combine bookkeeping, tax compliance, and Fractional CFO-level advisory for Dallas businesses. From staying on top of quarterly estimated taxes and IRS filings to providing cash flow forecasting, budgeting, and growth strategies, we deliver the clarity and insight needed to make tax-smart, growth-focused decisions. With our Advisory-First approach, you gain a proactive partner invested in your success in Dallas’s competitive market.

REED COVAR, CPA, ASSOCIATE PRINCIPAL
“Many businesses view accounting and tax as separate, but every financial move impacts your tax return. Integrating business accounting and tax advisory uncovers savings, improves accuracy, and drives smarter decisions. This unified approach streamlines workflows and strengthens overall financial health.”
