New Member; Seeking Lawyer(s) and CPA
Dear all,
I am very new, and I have been quite impressed by the friendliness and helpfulness I have seen from member posts. I am grateful to have found this community!!
My name is Marian. I live in Salem, OR. My main goal is to find good deals, in Oregon and in other states, and primarily do BRRRR. However, my goals may change and/or expand as I learn more.
I have lots of questions, and I will be posting more questions. I wanted to start with these 2.
- 1. Does anyone know a really good CPA in Oregon? I am thinking like those who are recommended in the book “Tax Free Wealth,” but maybe a step down or 2. My understanding is that their retainers are around $10,000, and while I am sure they are well worth it, we are just getting started and probably don’t need that level of caliber yet. Feel free to correct me – I am here to learn! I remember Robert Kiyosaki saying to pay your accountants and lawyers well!
- 2. Does anyone know good Real Estate lawyers in Oregon and in other states, and also good lawyers in Oregon to help with Estate Planning and Trusts?
A little more background info:
I have read some of Brandon’s books and watched some of his webinars and podcasts. Wow, I have so much to learn! I am reading Rich Dad Poor Dad now. I have also started reading some of the Rich Dad Advisor books. How wonderful that successful people are helping us and teaching us how to invest in Real Estate.
I have been so impressed by what good teachers these authors are, and what valuable information they have. I am so excited and grateful! I also just signed up for the Bigger Pockets Rookie Bootcamp Fall 2021. Maybe I will “See” some of you there?
Thanks in advance for any help! Looking forward to collaborating with you to create success for all of us, and win-win situations for tenants, sellers, and all involved in or affected by our investing and our transactions and businesses.
Best, Marian
