CPA Firm for Sale – Southeast Kern County, CA. This well-established CPA firm has been serving the Southeast Kern County region for approximately 35 years. The owners are now preparing for retirement and are offering the full firm for sale. The practice is located in a small community and, for confidentiality purposes, the exact location will remain undisclosed until an interested party has reviewed this full profile and expressed continued interest. While the Sellers are looking forward to retirement, they are happy to assist with the transition through the April 2026 tax season. The total number of hours and compensation for this support are negotiable based on the Buyer’s needs. Approximately 75% of clients drop off their information for professional services, 15% prefer in-person appointments, 2% mail in their documents, and the remaining 8% submit everything electronically.
