Simplified Tax’s new 3,600 square foot Charlotte location, as well its 15 new part-time staffers, will help the tax company get through the ensuing months of filing madness.
Simplified Tax opened first opened in Lansing in the late 60s and has since expanded to Owasso, Williamston and DeWitt. The 15 tax season staffers will be distributed across the branches.
“Over the years we’ve opened a number of satellite offices and we were looking for a new location west of Lansing,” says Ryan Lowe, Simplified Tax office manager. “We didn’t want to be in Grand Ledge or the west Saginaw area because it’s more suburban than Lansing. Charlotte is kind of its own community.”
Simplified Tax renovated the original Carnegie Library building in Charlotte before moving in, restoring the original woodwork and making improvements to the outside of the building. The library served as a law office before Simplified Tax took over.
“We’re growing and the service we provide is something that everyone needs,” Lowe says. “What differentiates us from national chains is that we’re quite a bit more private. When we meet with someone we meet in a private office.”
One third of the building is available for commercial space. Simplified Tax is located at 200 N. Cochran Ave. in Charlotte.
