what I do is work with a real accountant, but using an accounting software, I do all of the "manual labor" (uploading all invoices, bank statements, sales and purchases,...). The accountant has full admin rights to this tool and can access anything I put in there. So he then reviews it, and lets me know what to modify. This way, it's win win, accountant charges me less money, and accountant has more time for more clients and has to do less boring admin shit, and can just make money on reviewing and advising. Also the accountant does the filings to the tax office after review. So he does have to take it fully serious since his name is on there. I quite like this arrangement for the time being.
