Tax Accountant or online software for beginner landlord

Hi,

Beginner landlord here...

I plan to have one, 2-4 unit multi-family home by this time next year. I imagine I will be itemizing my returns.

My question is should I plan to find a personal accountant, or would some online tax preparation software suffice?

If software, which one(s) would you say is best for a landlord.

If accountant, what is a very rough ballpark of the cost/fee structure to pay a personal accountant.

I imagine as I continue to acquire more properties I will eventually switch to an accountant, but it may not be necessary at this time?

Thanks in advance
