Recommendations for a good tax professional

Brandon Patrick
Posted

Hello everyone, 

Every year I keep having problems and issues with the tax person I’m working with it every year I have to find a new one. I have even had situations where I had to amend my taxes because the tax person screwed up. Looking for recommendations for a tax professional in the Phoenix area that is familiar with property, flipping, rental properties, and a construction business.

Hey @Brandon Patrick

Im sorry to hear you keep cycling through accountants. Many folks that come to us we end up having to amend prior tax returns because they were done wrong and its always frustrating for the client to see how much money they missed out on and how they now have to wait to get it. 

As accountants on BP, we are not allowed to self-promote. To help you in your search: be sure to find an accountant that is willing to grow with you, and is not too high priced fee wise. Not to low either, you don't want to go with someone who is just focused on price as this is a quality of a not so great accountant. Accountants are in such demand, that the best are not even accepting clients half the time.

The other problem I see often with accountants on here is that they specialize in larger investors, and have really high prices when you as a smaller investor do not need all the bells and whistles.

Another thing I see is folks thinking they need to have a tax professional in their state. We as a firm have investors working with us who have rental properties all over the US big and small.

Finding a real estate-focused tax professional and one who can help with advisory and grow with you would be my suggestion to focus your efforts on finding. Best of luck in your search!
