Foreign-owned U.S. LLCs have unique tax and compliance obligations — and many business owners don’t realize it until they receive IRS penalties, notices, or discover they missed important filing requirements.
As an Enrolled Agent, I help international entrepreneurs establish, manage, and keep their U.S. companies fully compliant with confidence. I specialize in working with non-U.S. residents who own U.S. LLCs and need reliable support navigating the American tax system.
Over the past few years, I have helped entrepreneurs from Latin America, Europe, and Asia successfully form and maintain their U.S. businesses. I have prepared 100+ Form 5472 and pro-forma Form 1120 filings for foreign-owned single-member and multi-member LLCs, while also supporting clients with bookkeeping, annual compliance, and tax planning.
My goal is not only to prepare forms, but to help business owners understand their responsibilities, avoid costly mistakes, and build a solid structure for long-term growth.
I provide end-to-end support for international business owners, including:
✅ LLC Formation & U.S. Business Setup
• Single-member and multi-member LLC formation
• EIN applications with the IRS
• BOI Report filing (FinCEN requirements)
• State registrations in Wyoming, Delaware, Florida, New Mexico, and more
• Annual reports and ongoing compliance guidance
✅ U.S. Tax Compliance & Advisory
• Form 5472 & pro-forma Form 1120 filings
• Form 1065 partnership tax returns
• Individual tax returns (Form 1040 & 1040-NR)
• Federal and state compliance support
• IRS notices assistance
• Tax planning for international entrepreneurs and online businesses
✅ Bookkeeping & Financial Management
As a Certified QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor, I help businesses maintain clean and accurate financial records through:
• Monthly bookkeeping and reconciliations
• Catch-up and clean-up bookkeeping
• Financial reporting and month-end close
• E-commerce, consulting, and online business bookkeeping
• Customized accounting solutions based on your business model
I combine technical expertise with a modern and practical approach. Many traditional accountants still struggle to understand how international online businesses operate today. I work closely with digital entrepreneurs, remote business owners, agencies, freelancers, and e-commerce sellers who need clear communication, fast support, and a long-term compliance partner.
Why clients choose to work with me:
✔ Enrolled Agent (EA) authorized to represent taxpayers before the IRS
✔ Specialized in foreign-owned U.S. LLC compliance
✔ 4+ years of bookkeeping experience and 100+ LLC formations completed
✔ Fluent in English, Spanish, and Portuguese
✔ Fast communication and client-focused support
✔ Long-term strategic approach, not just form preparation
If you are looking for a reliable partner to help you manage your U.S. business properly — from LLC formation to bookkeeping, tax filings, and ongoing compliance — I’d be happy to discuss your situation and help you find the best solution for your business.

You run your properties. I will take care of the numbers.
I am a Chartered Accountant (India), equivalent to a US CPA, with 5+ years of experience in U.S. real estate and e-commerce accounting.
Most real estate investors get a report at month end, glance at it, and move on, never really understanding which property is actually profitable, where their cash is leaking, or why their bank balance never matches what the P&L says they made. That stops here.
I do not just do your bookkeeping. I tell you the story behind your numbers.
With 5+ years of real estate accounting experience, 25+ active real estate clients, and a Chartered Accountant qualification from India, I work exclusively with landlords, flippers, short-term rental operators, syndicators, and property managers. I use QuickBooks Online, Xero, AppFolio, Buildium, Stessa, Baselane, and DoorLoop. I understand every layer: rent rolls, security deposit liability, CAM reconciliations, owner draws, mortgage principal vs interest splits, escrow accounts, depreciation, 1031 exchanges, cost segregation entries, and partner capital accounts.
Every Financial Statement is an Untold Story
Each month I read your numbers like a CFO would. Which units are dragging down your portfolio yield? Are R&M costs creeping up on one property while the others look healthy? Is your DSCR slipping? Did turnover costs eat your projected returns on the last vacancy? Your books should answer these questions, property by property, and mine do.
Monthly Close Process
A disciplined two-phase close so you are never guessing:
By the 7th: Soft close. All transactions categorized by property and class, rent receipts matched, mortgage payments split between principal, interest, taxes, and insurance. Open queries flagged to you for clarification.
By the 15th: Hard close. Full reconciliation across operating, security deposit, and reserve accounts. Property-level P&Ls and consolidated portfolio statements finalized. I walk you through what moved, what impacted NOI, and what needs your attention.
Setup, Automation and Reconciliation
If your books are a mess or you are starting fresh, I set everything up properly:
Chart of accounts structured for real estate, mapped to Schedule E or 8825 categories so tax time is effortless
Property-level class tracking so every transaction rolls up to the right unit and entity, even across multiple LLCs
Property management software integration with AppFolio, Buildium, Stessa, Baselane, or DoorLoop for automated rent roll sync and trust account separation
Mortgage amortization schedules built and maintained so principal, interest, escrow, and PMI are split correctly every month
Security deposit liability tracked separately by tenant and reconciled to the trust account
AP automation using Bill for vendor payments and 1099 tracking ready for year end
Receipt capture using Hubdoc or Dext, audit-ready and tied to the right property
Bank, credit card, and merchant feeds reconciled monthly with intercompany transfers cleanly mapped
Depreciation schedules with land and improvement splits, with cost segregation results integrated when applicable
Federal and State Tax Returns
I handle full US federal compliance for real estate investors: Form 1040 with Schedule E, Form 1065 with Form 8825, Form 1120-S, and Form 5472 for foreign-owned LLCs holding US real estate. Filed through a licensed CPA firm I work with that holds the PTIN, so returns are filed professionally with the IRS. I work with cost segregation specialists to capture accelerated depreciation, prepare Form 3115 for §481(a) adjustments, and handle HARPTA and FIRPTA filings for non-resident property sales.
I also cover state income tax, franchise tax, and annual report compliance across every state where your properties and entities sit, keeping each LLC in good standing as your portfolio scales.
I am proficient with QuickBooks Online, Xero, AppFolio, Buildium, Stessa, Baselane, DoorLoop, Bill, Hubdoc, Dext, ProConnect Tax, Lacerte, Drake Tax, and CCH ProSystem fx.
What You Get Working With Me
An accountant who shows up every month, closes on a fixed schedule, gives you property-level clarity, explains your numbers in plain language, and flags problems before they get expensive. Not a report dropped in your inbox with no context.
If your books are unreconciled, your rent roll does not tie to the bank, your mortgage payments are sitting in one lump category, or you do not know which property is actually making money, let us fix that.
Let's talk about your portfolio.
