Tax Strategy & Compliance for San Antonio Locals
The Problem: Too many San Antonio taxpayers only see the impact of taxes at filing time—whether it’s an unexpected balance due, a smaller refund, or realizing they missed valuable tax-saving opportunities. While Texas has no state income tax, individuals still face federal compliance, real estate considerations, and investment-related planning, which can create complexity without the right advisor.
At Dark Horse CPAs, we believe in No Surprises. We work proactively with San Antonio individuals and families to minimize federal tax liability, optimize wealth strategies, and ensure compliance. From retirement and investment planning to real estate and multi-state filings, every engagement includes forward-looking tax strategy so you’re always ahead, never reactive.

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 San Antonio Businesses
The Problem: Many San Antonio business owners lack timely, accurate data—or the tax strategy needed to stay competitive. While Texas’s lack of state income tax simplifies some aspects, businesses still face federal compliance, sales and franchise taxes, payroll requirements, and industry-specific regulations. Without proactive guidance, it’s easy to miss savings or expose your business to risk.
The Solution: At Dark Horse CPAs, we combine bookkeeping, tax compliance, and proactive tax planning for San Antonio businesses. From managing franchise tax filings and federal obligations to providing cash flow management, growth strategies, and Fractional CFO-level advisory, we give you the clarity and insight to make informed, tax-smart decisions year-round. With our Advisory-First approach, you’ll have a partner invested in your long-term success in San Antonio's competitive marketplace.
