Reaching out to the BP community for recommendations of tax and legal professionals close to my area specializing in real estate investing. Services I am looking to get help with are business entity creation, tax planning, asset protection and tax prep. Have been considering firms like KKOS Lawyers (Mark Kohler) and Anderson Business Advisors ( Clint Coons) but would prefer a local firm. Appreciate your suggestions. TYIA.
Given we are accountants, we cannot promote our services on BP as its against the rules.
To help 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!
