I thought my CPA was doing a decent job until I switched to Kane Tax and Accounting. They found tax strategies nobody had ever brought up and saved my business way more money than I expected. Tax planning is clearly what they do best and it has made a huge difference for my bottom line.

I run a mobile RV repair business out of Coeur d Alene and had been doing my own taxes for years thinking I was saving money. Finally called Collin and it was one of the better business decisions I've made.
He went through everything my truck, tools, the miles I put on every week running jobs across Spokane and North Idaho. Turns out I was leaving a lot on the table. He got me set up with the right structure for a one-man operation and put me on a quarterly payment schedule so April doesn't wreck me anymore.
No jargon, no upselling, fixed fee so I knew the cost upfront. He runs his business the way I try to run mine.
Small business owners in the Coeur d'Alene or Spokane area, do yourself a favor and give Kane Tax a call.

After talking to Collin, I switched to Kane Tax & Accounting after years of using another accountant. As a small business owner, I needed an experienced Coeur d'Alene CPA that understood tax planning, and wasn't just filing my tax return every year. After our consultation, Collin built a year-round tax strategy for my company, did bookkeeping, and also found deductions my previous accountant missed. Within the first year, the tax savings more than covered his fees.
What set Kane Tax & Accounting apart from other accountants in Coeur d'Alene is that Collin is the CPA I actually work with, - I'm never handed off to junior staff. He picks up the phone, he knows my books, and he's proactive about tax planning months before any IRS deadlines. I've recommended him to other business owners in North Idaho and Spokane, and every one of them has had the same experience.

Absolute best CPA and Accounting experience with Collin. Kind, responsive, thorough, and was willing to take a lot of time to explain things very simply so that I fully understand. Our small business could not have been happier with our experience and will never use anyone else.

As a new business, filing taxes is extremely overwhelming and scary. I’m so glad I found Collin, with Kane Tax & Accounting, to help me through the difficult process of filing everything correctly. We met several times throughout the year and discussed different strategies and outcomes. He advised me with several larger business purchases and even help avoid a scammer. I cannot recommend Collin enough for all your tax needs.
