Published 9:31am Monday, February 18, 2013

Swartz has also worked with local churches, the chamber of commerce, the barbecue festival and other Christian and civic organizations.

“I didn’t expect, however, the complexity of the work in this small town. In addition to some very successful local businesses people, I found that many people retiring here have been very successful in their varied careers. When they retire here, they bring their complications with them,” he said.

From his office in this small western North Carolina town, Swartz and his employees now prepare tax returns for individuals in 20 states annually and have clients in several foreign countries. Business clients range from one-person entities to larger multi-state businesses.

“Working with these varied individuals and businesses is a challenge that I fully enjoy. Of course, I don’t do this on my own. In addition to myself, I have a talented staff of four full-time, four part-time and four tax season individuals of whom I am quite proud,” Swartz said. “God has brought to me a great staff who love our work and the people we serve.”

Among his staff there are six degreed accountants, one is a CPA with a master’s degree in taxation and one is a former IRS agent who is enrolled to practice before the IRS.
