Searching for a Financial Advisor & Accountant

[Shannon Vistisen]

Good Morning!

I am new to the real estate investment market and am looking for a financial advisor and tax accountant. How would one vet out these to professions when choosing who to help with their goals?

1 - Are there certain questions I can ask to make sure they know what they're talking about?

2 - Should you stick with someone that is local to you so you can talk in person?

4 - Do I need someone that specifically works with STR or LTR ?

3 - Any personal recommendations?

I live in Metro Detroit/ Michigan - if it's key to stick to someone local.

Thank you.
