Our tax situation was a rather tricky one. We had returned to Canada after working in the USA for over 20 years and needed to file in both countries. Furthermore, we needed to address tax issues surrounding the sale of real estate. As complex as these matters appeared to us, the personnel at MBF clarified our situation and dealt with all requirements in a manner that was timely, effective and professional.

I am a business student at MSVU who is focusing on accounting. I reached out to MBF in order to interview an entrepreneur who works in the field. I left a message with David and he got back to me within the hour. I know David is busy and his time is valuable and I truly appreciate him taking the time out of his day to assist a student in his community. I proceeded to ask David a series of interview questions which he answered in depth and I could tell he genuinely wanted to help me with my project. After getting the information I needed to write my report, David proceeded to encourage me to keep

I have had the opportunity to work with David Fagan and the Maynard Bent and Fagan team for in excess of 10 years. The firm has been instrumental in helping our companies manage growth and plan for the future, and as our primary contact, David has remained sincerely interested in our success. I would highly recommend David and team.

We have taken our business year end accounting here for as long as we have been in operation. We have always received excellent service and advice. If I have a question throughout the year I know they will always be there with the correct answer. They have also done our personal tax returns.

James Allen and this team took on our group of companies more than three years ago and their support has been a major factor in the overall success of our organization. They walked us through an acquisition and provided all of the support we needed to stabilize and manage the growth and change that followed. The role they continue to play in our daily operations far exceeds my expectations of an accounting firm.

I attribute a significant portion of the success we've had as a company (the Annapolis Cider Company) to MBF's efforts. They have been with us from day 1 when we approached them with a 1-page business plan. MBF goes far beyond what regular accountants offer. They are not only our bookkeepers and accountants, but our business advisors and mentors. They care deeply about rural economic development in Nova Scotia and they demonstrate this through a deep commitment to helping small businesses grow throughout the Annapolis Valley.
