Thanks for the laugh !  

???

 The laughs are because very few, if any, tax advisors would take on a new client right now to get the tax return filed in the next 13 days, and your pool is made even smaller when looking for those with a specific expertise.

At this point many of us are busy with our existing clients, and wouldn't want to do those clients or ourselves the disservice of trying to cram in onboarding and full preparation of a brand new client in that span of time. 


So I wish you best of luck finding your needle in the haystack!

     Hey Pamela, 

    Right now its a bit tight! I would reach out to folks providing value on the forum quickly and see if they are taking on new clients and that they can fit you in for the 15th deadline.

    If you have a STR, you want to have a discussion with your accountant to see if it will be considered active or passive.

    If it is considered active, and there is a loss, it will be eligible to offset your other forms of income such as wages, interest and dividends.

    @Pamela Pfeiffer

    You came to the right place. A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions and tax planning.


    I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in  real estate taxation and tax planning.

    You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.

    I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year. You want an accountant who can help you strategize and who is responsive when you want to know the consequences of the financial decisions you are making throughout the year.

    There are over 20 real estate accountants on this site. Reach out to a few, see who you like and see if they are accepting new clients.

    Good luck.
