Hi,

I see others have a similar question...

Yes, I am looking for a CPA with extensive experience in real estate, like others,

but I have the following criteria:

Must be based in CA (any city is ok)

Must have experience at one of the top 5-10 accounting firms

Would prefer in house bookkeeping service (I know this is not common--not a deal breaker)

Must be able to do cost segregation or work with a team that does

Must understand and have extensive knowledge in small/medium business tax preparation

Prefer no hourly rate

I have about 4 LLC's and one S-Corp in addition to my personal return.

I have spoken to most of the big accounting firms and would be a good candidate for them 

but I just don't want to pay $20,000/yr.  Further, I find most have a less experienced CPA do most of the work.

I'd like the experience of a big firm in a small firm.

Thanks,

Paul
