I'm not sure what you mean by a "celebrity EA" as none of my EA colleagues have ever been called that, but here is a post I wrote about finding a tax professional on Bigger Pockets:

Also, generally there is no practical difference between EAs and CPAs when it comes to tax preparation, tax planning or IRS representation. We do the same thing basically.


If you only want to work with an Enrolled Agent (EA) and not a CPA, Michael Plaks is actually a great person to talk to. He’s been one of the top contributors in the EA and tax strategy discussions on BiggerPockets for years and has a strong reputation for working with real estate investors.
