Where Should Your CPA Be (Out of State Investing)?

Dave Olverson

When you are looking for a CPA or other tax professional to prepare your taxes for you, naturally you want someone who is well-versed in real estate investing.

However, if I am investing out of state, should I find a CPA local to me or local to my investment market?

My initial thought is that I should find someone local to me as I will be paying state taxes in the state I reside in, but am I missing something?

Thanks all.

Either, or neither. It really doesn't matter. I use a guy who is an expert in RE taxes and he's not in my state. Just email or mail him/her the stuff.
