What Our Client Says?

Samy Basta is such a kind and sweet man, I just love him! Such a pleasure to work with. Samy cares deeply about client education, and takes the time to explain complex tax matters in ways a non-expert (like me) can understand. He is so patient and diligent. I am consistently impressed with his deep knowledge of tax law, and the way he uses that knowledge to save his clients money. This year he showed me how, through some simple tax planning, I could cut $6k off my tax bill. I am so grateful for Samy!

I cannot recommend Samy enough! He helped us with a very challenging 1031 exchange which allowed us to defer our capital gains taxes and purchase a new property. He returns e-mails and phone messages promptly and the best part is that he talks non CPA language to you in order to make sure you understand everything. If I could, I would give him 6 stars!

What a great surprise! We were expecting to pay IRS over $10,000 in additional taxes but we ended up with $4,000 tax credits and paid nothing! Samy is amazing! He knows all the recent tax reforms and patiently explains them to us and applies the relevant tax deductible tools and strategies for our business and personal taxes. We have referred him many of our friends and we heard nothing but great reviews. We are so happy to know him and have him as our valuable resource for our finances.

As a new client I’m delighted to report that my interactions with Basta & Company have been excellent. Though not a complete novice with online forms processing, at 1st I was slightly perplexed by the TaxDome software. Fortunately for me I had phone assistance from Jessica Catinella, who graciously walked me through the process. My uploads, though not correctly labeled, reached Jessica who called and advised me that all went well. I’m grateful for the invaluable assistance I’ve so far received from Basta & Company, and staff!Thank you,John Meloy
