Orlando bookkeeper & QuickBooks accountant.

TechBrot provides Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor bookkeeping for Orlando businesses — monthly bookkeeping, cleanup, and QuickBooks management by a named bookkeeper on the same file every month. Florida has no state personal income tax (C-corporations pay a 5.5% corporate income tax; pass-throughs are generally exempt) and no franchise/margin tax — so what shapes the books is Orlando’s economy and the Florida tax stack. Orlando is the theme-park and tourism capital of the world (Walt Disney World, Universal), built on hotels, attractions, vacation rentals, and conventions, with the “Team Orlando” simulation and defense cluster and growing tech. The distinctive accounting is hospitality and vacation rentals — high-volume POS, and the Tourist Development Tax (the county bed tax) tracked as a liability. The Florida stack: the 6% sales tax plus the Orange County surtax (about 6.5%), the Tourist Development Tax, the 5.5% corporate income tax on C-corps, and reemployment tax. We build awareness of all of it into your books, keep them CPA-ready, and coordinate with your CPA, who files. Fixed-fee against a written scope ($400–$2,500+/mo monthly; cleanup $1,500–$15,000+). Delivered remotely on QuickBooks Online or hosted Desktop. Independent firm — not affiliated with Intuit Inc.; does not file Florida taxes.

Orlando runs on tourism at a scale almost nowhere else matches, and that economy — on top of Florida’s tax stack — is what shapes its books. Florida has no state personal income tax, though C-corporations pay a 5.5% corporate income tax.

The defining work is hospitality and vacation rentals. Hotels, attractions, restaurants, and the huge short-term and vacation-rental market run high-volume POS and platform payouts, with the Tourist Development Tax (the Orange County bed tax) collected on lodging and remitted to the county — held money that must be tracked as a liability, not revenue. The “Team Orlando” modeling, simulation, and training cluster adds government and defense contracting, and a growing tech and Lake Nona medical economy rounds it out.

The Florida tax stack still has to be right: 6% sales tax plus the Orange County surtax (about 6.5%), the Tourist Development Tax, the 5.5% corporate income tax on C-corps, reemployment tax, and an annual tangible personal property return for equipment. A generic bookkeeper books the bed tax as revenue or never reconciles platform payouts; we put a named bookkeeper on your file who tracks per-property results, the Tourist Development Tax, and the Florida positions cleanly — with the filings left to your CPA.

The result: books that reflect how an Orlando business actually runs — per-property vacation-rental results clear, POS and platform payouts reconciled, the Tourist Development Tax tracked as a liability, sales tax handled — reconciled monthly and handed to your CPA CPA-ready.

Across dozens of rental units or a peak-and-off-season attraction, the value isn’t categorizing a transaction — it’s knowing each property’s real margin, your bed-tax liability is clean for remittance, your platform payouts reconcile, and your seasonal labor is real against occupancy. That judgment is what a named Orlando bookkeeper brings, and what fractional-CFO advisory extends once the books are clean.
