Hello Bigger Pockets Forums!

If anyone can help, I'm looking for an attorney & CPA to help with building my corporate structure properly. I just sold my first flip, closed end of Jan, and finishing up my second flip in the next week. Should be on the market soon.

I'm moving forward with flipping and not stopping anytime soon.

Would like to set things up the right way, as soon as possible as well a CPA to make sure my taxes are on point. Not looking for any trouble with IRS!

I'm located in Los Angeles, Ca the San Fernando Valley, Northridge, West Hills area.

If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Hey @Robert Lopez

As accountants we cannot promote directly on BP as its against the rules. 

To help you in your search: be sure to find an accountant who is willing to grow with you, and is not too high priced fee-wise. Not too 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!
