Melissa, 

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.

Michael, 

What you are doing is called house hacking. House hacking will complicate your tax return.

Your property can be treated as both an investment property and a personal residence. Your property expenses will need to be divided between business deductions and personal deductions.

House-hacking will also complicate your taxes if you sell the property.

I recommend that you hire an accountant that specializes in real estate taxation. 

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.
