Angie’s List
Platform: iOs, Android
Cost: app is free, but an Angie’s List subscription costs $3 per month
How it helps: Angie’s List is a great resource not only for finding house painters and mechanics, but also for finding a quality tax preparer. There’s no licensing requirement for someone to call himself a tax preparer (as opposed to a certified financial planner or a certified public accountant), and many people who practice have never taken a competency test. Check Angie’s List for unbiased reviews and ratings of tax preparers before turning over your finances to a stranger.
