How to vet a CPA?

Jason Rowlett

Posted

I am trying to find a solid CPA in my local area - preferably someone I can work with for the long haul and who may even specialize in real estate investing. 

Are there CPA's who "specialize" in real estate? If so, how would you find the best ones?

How do you go about vetting a CPA to make sure they are solid?

Thanks!

For starters, weed out the ones who aren't real estate investors themselves.
