I am seeking to relocate my established CPA practice to South Carolina through a merger with an existing firm, ideally in a partner or shareholder capacity. My goal is to integrate into a forward-thinking firm where I can contribute immediately to leadership, client service, and long-term growth.
About the Practice:
I currently operate a small, well-established CPA practice serving a diverse client base, including small closely-held businesses, high-income/high-net-worth individuals, and trusts. Services include tax planning and compliance, business advisory, client representation before taxing authorities, and bookkeeping.
The practice is built on long-term client relationships, quality service, and a reputation for responsiveness, technical competence, and practical business advice.
What I am Seeking:
- Partner/shareholder opportunity within an established South Carolina CPA firm
- A collaborative firm culture focused on client service and growth
- Opportunity to transition or merge my existing client relationships smoothly
- Opportunity to transition into retirement in 5 – 10 years
What I Bring:
- Established book of business ($700,000+)
- 40+ years of broad experience in tax, financial statement, and advisory services
- Experience in retail, manufacturing, professional service, and real estate rental industries
- Strong client retention and referral-based growth model
- Commitment to continuity of client relationships during transition
- Leadership experience and willingness to contribute to firm development
Ideal Firm Profile:
Small to mid-sized CPA firm, including sole proprietors, open to strategic expansion or adding experienced leadership talent, preferably located in Jasper or Beaufort Counties
