Mount Pleasant friends — I normally don’t post things like this, but I’m trying to grow my little accounting firm this year and would really love to take on a few more bookkeeping clients locally.

This community has supported my business so much over the years, and I truly appreciate it more than people probably realize.

I know bookkeeping is one of those things business owners tend to push off because life gets busy, but I genuinely love helping people get organized, caught up, and feeling less stressed about their finances.

I’m not a huge corporate firm. It’s very personal for me. I care a lot about my clients and about doing things correctly.

If you know a local business owner in Mount Pleasant or Charleston who:
is overwhelmed with QuickBooks
behind on bookkeeping
unsure if things are accurate
or just wants someone responsive and trustworthy

…I’d be incredibly grateful if you sent them my way.

What is Business Personal Property Tax (BPP)… and why should you care? 👇

👉 It’s a tax on the stuff your business uses — not the building

What counts?
• Equipment
• Furniture
• Computers
• Machinery
• Tools

Here’s where people get tripped up 👇
This is a separate tax filing that’s required every year

And most business owners don’t realize:
👉 It’s often NOT included in your regular tax return

If you don’t file?
❌ The county estimates (usually high)
❌ You still get a bill
❌ Penalties + interest get added

Where this applies:
South Carolina, North Carolina, and many other states

Most people only learn about this when a bill shows up in the mail

Need help figuring out if this applies to you?
Send me a message — happy to walk through it with you.

South Carolina just passed a major tax law that will impact the 2026 tax year—and it’s not as simple as “tax cuts.”

While many taxpayers will benefit from lower rates, higher-income households may actually see an increase due to new deduction phase-outs and the elimination of itemized deductions.

I put together a quick video and a simple breakdown to help you understand what’s changing and how it could affect you.

Check out out informative blog on this topic as well.

🚨 Scam Alert for Business Owners Using Bill.com 🚨

We’ve been made aware of a new scam targeting businesses using Bill.com.

Scammers are calling and pretending to be Bill.com support, offering to “help you get paid faster” by updating your banking information or reconnecting your account.

⚠️ This is a scam.

Please keep the following in mind:

- Bill.com will NOT call you asking to update banking details over the phone
- Never share login credentials, bank info, or verification codes with anyone who calls you
- Do not click links or follow instructions from unsolicited calls or emails

✅ What you should do instead:

- Only log in directly through the official Bill.com website
- Contact Bill.com support using their official contact information if you’re unsure
- Notify your accountant or advisor if something feels off

Protecting your financial information is critical, and these scams are becoming more common—especially during busy financial periods.

If you receive one of these calls, hang up immediately.

Stay safe,
Lembo Accounting Solutions

We are seeing updates that South Carolina may adopt certain federal tax changes for the 2025 tax year. This would be a favorable change for many taxpayers, though final details are still pending.

What this means
Some individuals who already filed their 2025 South Carolina return may need to amend, depending on how the state moves forward. Not all taxpayers will be impacted.

The potential changes under consideration include
• No tax on tips
• No tax on overtime
• Car loan interest deduction
• Increased standard deduction
• Enhanced senior deduction (federal version)
• Expanded Section 179 expensing
• Various new federal adjustments to income

If South Carolina adopts these changes, we will review all returns we have filed and reach out to clients who may benefit from an amendment.

We understand this is coming late in tax season and share your frustration. We will keep you updated as more guidance becomes available.

South Carolina has also extended the state filing deadline. This extension applies only to South Carolina, not federal returns.

Businesses and individuals. Please know that South Carolina has not elected OBBB tax changes. What does this mean for you? Unfortunately this means you will be adding back expenses/deductions/credits from your federal taxable income, increasing your South Carolina taxable income.

Although this is not ideal, Lembo Accounting Solutions has you covered. As of right now, there has been no communication from South Carolina Department of Revenue to indicate if/when/ever they will adopt these changes.

Also, let your tax preparer know if:
- You have purchased an American vehicle in 2025
- You have worked and paid overtime
- You have received tips in your job in 2025

There are new tax saving opportunities available for 2025 tax year.

Happy Tax Time!!
