@Todd Kozak

If you were running any other type of business would you want to use the correct address?

Quote from @Cedrick McKinney:

Hello everyone! I also have a few properties in Cleveland Heights and Shaker heights. Andrew could you please send me a dm with a those names as well, looking for a CPA thanks everyone. Would love to link with with like minded Cleveland investors as well. Thank you! 

Hello Cedrick. Came across this post from a few years ago. I'm new to STR ownership, looking for CLE area CPA that specializes. Did you have success in locating one that you can recommend?

@Justin T Norris

 You came to the right place. A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.

I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation and tax planning.

You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.

I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year. You want an accountant who can help you strategize and who is responsive when you want to know the consequences of the financial decisions you are making throughout the year.

There are over 20 real estate accountants on this site. Reach out to a few, see who you like and see if they are accepting new clients.

Good luck.

@Jessica Lamont

It's going to be very difficult to find an accountant that can complete your return by the 15th.

There are over 20 accountants on this site. Reach out to a few and see if they can complete your return after October 15th. The IRS will still accept returns after the 15th. 

Good luck.

@Binita Mehta

An LLC will not save you any taxes. You get the same deductions with or without an LLC. An LLC is useful for opening a business bank account. A business bank account helps with asset protection, accounting and tax return preparation.
