Bookkeeping Services
My wife and I found Jennifer knowledgeable, businesslike, and easy to develop a plan with, and pricing is very reasonable and realistic. Her experience in building her business over the past five years and doing office management before that are excellent for our needs. More...

Jennifer is an excellent bookkeeper. She’s detail oriented, timely, and responsive. We have used her for years and our books are meticulous. She makes things easy for us to do quick financial reviews and for our accountants to pull the information they need. I highly recommend her services! More...

Hiring Total Maven to handle all the accounting for my investment property was the BEST decision I could have made! Jennifer is extremely organized and manages my receivables, payables, produces monthly income reports, tax-related items, etc. Having a professional look after these tasks has allowed me to enjoy my investment stress-free! She’s very communicative, always just a phone call or email away, and never makes me feel silly for the questions I’ve had (first time investor and non-accounting person here.) Most of all, I super appreciate the reliability and consistency of the services provided. I hope to keep expanding investment properties and with Total Maven’s help, I’m looking forward to making it a reality! More...
