Considering moving to a real estate accountant (referrals?)

[Alison Brenner]

Hi All,

My family's business has been multi-families for over 60 years. In January, I inherited 24 units (4 building; 6 units each). I started self-managing in April of 2022. In short, I am very green.

I am strongly considering moving to an accountant who specializes in real estate investments. My family has used the same CPA for over 20 years. He is wonderful but I don't think he has the required knowledge or skill set.

I realize that there are accountants who are very active on this site. If you have personal experience working with a real estate CPA/accountant in the Orange County, CA area, I would greatly appreciate the person's contact info.

Thank you very much for all your help.

Make sure to work with an Accountant who will understand 'step up in basis' once properties are inherited.
