Looking for CPA and Attorney recommendations in Georgia

I'm new to REI, and I am building my team. In short, I'm looking for CPA and an Attorney who both are investor friendly in Georgia, best if they are located in Cobb County. Thanks for all the recommendations.

Your first choice should be to find a CPA that specializes in real estate taxation and one that is local. Many CPA's that post on this website 'tout' finding one that is out of state so you can find that real estate focused CPA. Real Estate Taxation is nothing new and you can certainly find a local CPA that specializes in Real Estate.

Below are some tips to find a Local CPA that specializes in real estate

1) Attend a Local REIA / Real Estate meetup and see who other investors are using as a CPA
2) Network with other investors from your City/State that you find on bigger pockets and see who they use as a CPA
3) Look for CPA's with good google/yelp reviews where 'real estate' is mentioned in the review.

You should only look for an out-of-state CPA after you take the above steps.

You can verify that your CPA is from Georgia by using the following website - https://gsba.georgia.gov/servi...

Best of Luck!
