First-Time Multi-unit Owner in Berkeley - need referrals for CPA and RE Lawyers
Hi! My wife and I just closed on a triplex in Berkeley, CA. While renovations are ongoing I'm looking for CPA and RE law advice.
Any referral much appreciated. Remote is OK (no need to be local) as long as they're specialized in CA.
Congrats! Quite a feat, so you should be proud. What types of questions are you looking to have answered? Especially for the law aspect, real estate law spans a great variety of areas of law, often handled by several different types of attorneys. For example, someone who handles an eviction is not likely to also assist on a 1031 exchange. Leases? Title issues? Estate planning? Tax planning? Liability protection? I know several CPAs in the San Diego and surrounding areas; feel free to send me a message if interested.

Quote from @Katie Balatbat:Thanks! Question on estate and tax planning + landlord/tenant relations. Berkeley is super tenant friendly so any advice on how to ensure I get airtight lease agreements or approach tenants smartly would be appreciated. One of my tenants is section 8, so there is that too.

Hi JC. I just closed on a triplex in Oakland. I would love to connect as it seems are we on a very similar journey. I am a real estate lawyer but am not well-versed on landlord tenant laws in our area so need guidance just like you. I have two tenants right now and would love to get one of them qualified for section 8. Please DM me if you are interested in talking more.
