    Jeffrey, 

    Are you open to working with your accountant remotely? I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation over one that is local. You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options. 

    I would also recommend looking for a tax strategist who is willing to work with you throughout the year, not just when preparing your tax return. You want an accountant that can help you strategize and who is responsive when you want to know the tax consequences of the decisions you are making throughout the year.

    Good luck and let me know if you have any questions.

    @Jeffrey Armstrong

    Your prior posts on biggerpockets mention that you invest in other states(Wisconsin). You want to connect with an accountant who understands multi-state taxation as you may be required to file state tax returns with WI.

    Good luck to you in your search for a CPA.

    @Jeffrey Armstrong - I'd talk to @Steven Hamilton II - He specializes in real estate and is in Illinois in Grey's Lake.
