    Hi Kara,

    It sounds like you have a lot of moving pieces between your rentals, business sale, and development project—exciting times! Since you have rentals and are selling a business, I’m also curious—are you building the 16-unit apartment complex through a construction company you own?

    When looking for a tax strategist, I’d recommend working with someone proactive in actually creating a tax plan tailored to your situation, not just preparing your returns. A great tax strategist will take the time to deeply understand not just your current financials but also your long-term goals. A well-crafted tax plan should not only minimize tax liabilities but also align with your personal and family goals for the future.

    If you’d like to discuss further, feel free to reach out!

    Best,

    Jason Malabute, CPA

    @Kara Leboeuf

    You came to the right place. Bigger Pockets is a great place to find a tax strategist specializing in real estate taxation.

    A good tax strategist can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.

    I recommend finding an accountant specializing in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.

    Consider working with your tax strategist remotely to expand your options.

    I would also recommend looking for an tax strategist 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.

    Good luck.
