The Accountancy Board of Ohio admitted him to practice as a Certified Public Accountant in April, 1987, and shortly thereafter, in March, 1993, he founded Siferd Professional Services, Inc., Certified Public Accountants. He has extensive experience helping Medical Practitioners, Real Estate Investors, those in the Transportation Industry and other business owners achieve their goals by showing them how to reduce their income-tax burden. From his first day in business, Larry’s mantra has been that “effective tax planning is just as important as competent tax-return preparation”.
In addition to his accounting firm, Larry has owned all or part of several other businesses including a convenience store, restaurant and marina. He is also a Real Estate Investor with commercial and residential holdings in Ohio and Florida. Other interests include collecting classic automobiles as well as vintage or antique advertising pieces. He, his wife Laurie and their clowder of cats reside in Lima Ohio’s only certified historic district.
