Realistic quote range for this cleanup
$3,300 - $6,000
Estimates only, based on publicly quoted practitioner rates (see method below). Your actual quote depends on what a bookkeeper finds once they open the file. This is not accounting, tax, or financial advice.
Bookkeepers describe cleanup work as a mystery box: they can't see how bad the file is until they're inside it, and most owners won't hand over account access before signing. So practitioners quote high to protect themselves, and the real number "almost always costs much more once you dig in." The single thing that lowers your quote is knowing exactly what's wrong before anyone bills an hour.
BooksAudit reads your QuickBooks Online or Xero export and returns a dated diagnostic report: miscategorized transactions, duplicates, unreconciled accounts, and the common offshore-handoff errors - before you pay anyone to fix them. Diagnostic only: it never touches your ledger. Use the report to scope the fix yourself, or hand it to your bookkeeper so they can quote the real job instead of the mystery box.
Early access: we'll reply with what to export, run the diagnostic on it, and send back your report - free, no card.
