Wild Horse Bookkeeping

Dear Business Owner,

Bookkeepers are a very cost effective way to keep order with your business, and make being in business fun for you again. I charge just $18. to $25. per hour, and can get the job done for you in as little 2 hours per week.

I am an ex-restaurant owner who loves bookkeeping, and am looking for a job locally. I've lived on the coast for 35 years and you probably already know me. I've worked for many local businesses and many of my neighbors.

One of my many interests is in real estate. I own 3 rental properties and have been in the vacation rental business and home rental business for 6 years.

I would be very happy to discuss your bookkeeping or business needs. Please give me a call and see if I can help you.

Thanks for your interest.
