The top two firms on the Albuquerque list, Affinity Accounting & Tax and Pulakos CPAs, side by side on services, pricing, software and what public records confirm.
We verified a monthly bookkeeping price for one of the 13 firms on this list: Focus Point Accounting publishes from $199 a month on its own site, captured September 26, 2026 (source). For the other firms we have no verified monthly bookkeeping price; some may publish other pricing, so ask them for a quote.
Firms outside the market pages that met the listing bar. A town gets its own page once it has 8 listed firms.
These firms reached 70% evidence coverage, but fewer than 6 of the items we score are documented for them, so they carry a score and no number.

New Mexico publishes records we can match, so we could check every firm we list in New Mexico against them: 8 firms with an active CPA license or permit on New Mexico's published register. The CPA records we matched belong to Jordan CPA, P.C., Zlotnick & Sandoval, Ryan Breedyk & Associates, LLC and David Fritschy Cpa. Each profile shows the license or permit number and the date we checked. Any firm that says it's a CPA practice can be checked on the New Mexico Public Accountancy Board lookup.
General information, not tax advice. Which of these reach your business depends on its entity type, what it sells, whether it has employees and the schedule each agency assigns. Your bookkeeper keeps the records; you, or whoever your engagement letter names, file. Checked on the linked official pages on September 26, 2026.
Search the firm or the person on the New Mexico Public Accountancy Board lookup. A bookkeeper doesn't need a CPA license to keep your books; it matters when a firm uses the CPA title or you need audited or reviewed statements.
Search its legal name on the New Mexico business entity search. A sole proprietor trading under its own name may not appear, and that alone isn't a warning sign.
