This company is top notch. The associates are knowledgeable, responsive and highly qualified. They go above and beyond in all that they do. We are so lucky to have found them!
Thank you for the 5-star review, Karrie!
Google reviewers rate Rea 4.7 out of 5 based on 47 reviews, noting that the owner responds to all feedback. Clients frequently praise the firm's punctuality, clear communication, and expertise in tax preparation, bookkeeping, and consulting services. Recurring themes highlight the staff's responsiveness and ability to handle complex financial needs efficiently. However, several low-star reviews criticize the firm for charging high fees and failing to perform basic accounting tasks like bank reconciliations in a timely manner.

I migrated to Rea & Associates from Cohen & Co. After about 30 years as a Cohen client they deemed I wasn't significant enough for their book of business and I left with several Cohen employees who handled my business and personal affairs when they moved to Rea. I am extremely pleased with the personal interaction,…
Excellent firm with excellent employees (primarily work with the Mentor, OH office). Honest, thorough, smart, trustworthy. Often recommend REA to other business associates looking for an accounting firm.

Inez and her team at Marietta are very knowledgeable and always answer my questions in a timely manner. Can not imagine using another company. We are very satisfied.

Thank you for the 5-star review, David!!
I migrated to Rea & Associates from Cohen & Co. After about 30 years as a Cohen client they deemed I wasn't significant enough for their book of business and I left with several Cohen employees who handled my business and personal affairs when they moved to Rea. I am extremely pleased with the personal interaction, the expertise and attention to my needs. I have received timely and sound advice on routine tax matters and those that affected the sale of one business. I couldn't ask for more. The quality of their works appears to be first rate, they are prompt, helpful and the rates are reasonable. I recommend them without reservation.
This is wonderful, we love seeing feedback like this! Thank you!!
