Sean — great question and glad you’re thinking ahead before tax season ramps up.I’m a CPA who works almost exclusively with real estate investors, agents, and short- and long-term rental owners.

I am looking for a CPA to help me with tax strategy and would like someone who specializes in real estate and is multi state licensed.Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

I hired Hall CPA as advisors, tax preparers, and to transfer my quickbooks to online.

I am looking for recommendations for an Accountant/CPA who works with newer STR investors at a more modest price point.

My cpa is estimating around 50k in capital gains.

It's also hard to find a CPA who can answer these questions on an hourly basis.

IRC 469(c)(7)(B) and Publication 925 back this up, stating that the active participation of just one spouse can turn the entire rental activity non-passive.It sounds like your CPA may have misunderstood this rule.

While you search for CPAs, I think a general principle is the more you learn the easier it will be to interface with your CPA and you will make a better choice on who you go with.

If you can handle that and get the property listed by year end, it’s a sound tax move just coordinate closely with your CPA and cost segregation firm to ensure the timing and paperwork line up before December 31.This post does not create a CPA-client relationship.

I work in tax (CPA).
