David Powers CPA PC
Tax planning, not just tax preparation.
By the time a return is filed, most of the tax is already decided. The savings come from decisions made during the year: how a business is structured, when income and deductions land, how property is held, and how each move fits the next five years.
I started my career in Big Four tax at EY and PwC, and I bring that same rigor to individuals, business owners and real estate investors who want a CPA thinking ahead with them.
Year-round planning
Multi-year projections, income and deduction timing, estimated-tax strategy, retirement-plan and fringe-benefit design, and year-end moves made while there is still time to make them.
Entity structuring
Choosing and organizing LLCs, partnerships, S corporations and C corporations, and the elections, ownership chains and intercompany arrangements that tie them together.
Real estate & short-term rentals
Rental and vacation-property taxation, cost segregation and depreciation, passive-activity rules, 1031 exchanges, acquisitions and sales. I own and operate rental property myself, so I know these issues from the inside.
Multistate & state tax
Residency, sourcing and nonresident filings across New York, Vermont and other states, plus notices, assessments and disputes with state tax departments.
Returns & compliance
Individual, partnership, corporate and trust returns, prepared as the last step of a plan rather than the whole engagement.
Who I work with
Business owners with one entity or several. Real estate investors and short-term rental owners. Professionals and families with multistate or high-income tax situations.

The best time to plan is before the year ends.
