Action plans and moving foward.......Accountant

Ok, to avoid Analysis Paralysis I am trying to take 1 action every single day to move towards my first SFH or MFH deal. I have met amazing people so far on BP, all of which have offered to help me in my journey and I am beyond grateful.

NOW, I realize that one major piece of any team I build will be a solid and sturdy Accountant. So here comes my question:

What 'type' of Accountant provides the most expertise to an investor's team, especially a new ignorant investor? 

I will make an assumption it is an Accountant very much experienced in tax law?
So am I looking for someone with experience in Financial Accounting and Tax Accounting and Investing Accounting? 

That sounds like 3 specialists rolled into 1 person. (yes I googled 'types of accounting').

Any tips or tricks to point me in a decent direction?

Thanks!

I highly recommend finding an accountant that is a real estate investor themselves. They'll know a lot more than your typical accountant.
