"Thank you, indeed, for inviting me to Marianne Kingman's presentation and Tax Class. To say that I found it interesting would be a gross understatement ... in fact she scared me speechless. I have already put some corrective procedures in place and may well seek further counsel from her firm."
This is a comment received by Denny Elmes as a result of the class Marianne taught on January 17th, 2008.
“There are three things required of professionals: technical expertise, integrity and a strong sense of customer. Marianne Kingman and Linda Winslow go beyond this. They are accountants’ accountants without the stuffiness this may imply.”
“As publisher of technical real estate investment content we deal with real estate accountants frequently. Their expertise in real estate practice and investment accounting is without peer due to their broad understanding and integration of the many aspects of business, personal, real estate, accounting and tax disciplines.”
“When we are in need of an unquestioned expert with an appropriate quote, Marianne and Linda get the call. “
Andrew Waite President and Publisher, Personal Real Estate Investor Magazine, Where to Live Books, LLC and NEXZUS Publishing Group.
“ Since becoming clients of the Kingman Winslow Tax Firm, we have structured our business the RIGHT way for taxes, accounting and legal concerns. Their advice alone has saved us thousands of dollars and we found out if we “do it right for taxes, we do it right for business.” We highly recommend their services to everyone looking for a team to provide all aspects of money management, tax services, and estate planning.”

Good Morning Marianne,
I just want to thank you for such an uplifting, refreshing and honest seminar about taxes and law in my industry of Real Estate. Wow, it was nice leaving there with knowledge of some issues I have had questions about for years and questions I have about others issues. I must say this is the first time I have attended this type of seminar and felt that I was not trying to be taken advantage of for the pure profit of the speaker. Your heart shines through along with the vast amount of knowledge you offer. I will be sharing this with our office today. I look forward to seeing you again soon.”

"Just to let you know how fortunate I feel to have attended yesterday's seminar. Marianne Kingman's dynamic speaking style and enthusiasm made an ordinarily boring and complex subject exciting and fun. Also, I was moved by her genuine interest in helping and motivating us (the real estate community) to know this stuff and take responsibility, for by doing so, we will grow, our business will grow and, of course,we'll stay out of trouble with the IRS. (:>
Again, thank you.

"It was a great morning, and Marianne is an easy to understand instructor. We

Instructor is an excellent teacher. Very clear and knowledgeable.

I am often asked for referrals to good tax professionals. In the past I have
been very hesitant to recommend anyone. That has now changed. I was invited to a
tax education workshop by our partner title company Fatco. During this workshop
I was not only educated, I did not fall asleep. The speaker was dynamic. Her
name is Marianne Kingman. She was also the most knowledgeable and accredited tax
attorney I have ever met. I am not easily impressed and she blew my socks off.

I was at today's tax myths and tax tips classes in Mesa, AZ and loved it!
Please put me on your list of people who would like to attend the conference
along with my assistant Steven Cheek. Thank you,

Marianne, Thank you for the class on tax saving the other day at (Location Omitted)... " I am pretty "unworthy"...My background was 30 years in senior management prior to my 6 year Real Estate career. One would think I could organize a $10M to $15M Real Estate business but it seems to be in conflict with my nature. I always had someone to take care of the little stuff, no more! Thank you again for a very worthwhile day!

I am writing to thank you for the class I took at Windermere Symposium 2004 concerning tax information for real estate agents. It is going to save me thousands of dollars in this tax year. In the class, you mentioned that the tax incentive for owning an SUV with 6000 pounds GVW might be signed away in a bill that had been talked about in Congress. So I decided to go hunting for my SUV earlier rather than later...As I signed the paperwork the dealer brought me proof printed from the internet that the bill had been signed (by the President) that day and that the write-off was gone! I had signed under the wire, thanks to you for the "heads up". Not only did I learn this...but I learned so much more that my accountants had not been telling me. For example, I formed an S Corporation this year and I probably would have just formed an LLC if I had taken your class first. Again, thank you! Everyone should take your class.

I attended your class, Tax Planning for Real Estate Agents ....." and I got so much more out of it than I ever dreamed. I spoke with the owner of my office, and he is getting together with the San Jose office and the Redding office to get you down here to speak to us. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!

In our business, we spend a lot of time measuring cost vs. benefit. This class
has an amazing ratio. It was the most informative, valuable class I’ve taken.
I’d recommend it to anyone.
