@Jason Duprat 

Don't feel like you need to use someone local. Many of us have clients located all over the place. The majority of accounting/CPA tasks can be completed remotely, including preparing and filing tax returns. Consultations and meetings can even be done remotely utilizing a video chat service such as Skype.

Be sure to find an accountant that fits your needs. Some accountants will simply perform accounting/tax services. Others will step it up a notch and provide a "complete package" and really act as a trusted advisor for your business.

If you are set on finding an accountant/CPA local to you, contact your state board: https://www.360taxes.org/CPA/Find-a-CPA-in-Your-State

If you have any questions, or if there is anything I can help you with, don't hesitate to connect and ask.

    Look up Shep Burr...He is local and very active in the Central Florida REIA.

    Him and his wife both buy/sell/flip/hold properties.

    Just out of curiosity, what is it that a RE inclined CPA can do that a regular CPA can/may not?

    @Sam Alpha An RE CPA will be up to date on RE laws and intricacies surrounding them. All CPAs will likely know about mainstream items like deducting mileage, but not all CPAs will know the ins and outs of say the new IRS repair regulations. 

    Would you trust a chemical engineer to build a bridge?
