Starting to build real estate investment portfolio. Appreciate any referrals of CPAs with tax experience for real estate investors.
Ideally, looking for local CPA's in Los Angeles and Orange County, but open to all of California as well. Thank you.

Thanks for sharing your experience, Jake. And congrats on your first investment!
What made you decide to invest out-of-state (assuming from your profile that you are from Colorado)? And how did you settle on Memphis, TN?
