Seeking an Accountant with extensive landlord tax experience

[Brian Tennies]

Hello!

I'm seeking an Accountant with extensive landlord tax experience.

I've been doing my taxes myself forever and after some recent conversations with other landlords I'm pretty sure I've been missing some deductions, and doing some depreciation wrong.

I'd like to sit down with someone to discuss my situation and possibly have them amend a few years back.  I'd also like to use a professional for future returns, not just seeking advice.

A referral for anyone in the Milwaukee / Brookfield / Waukesha area would be great!

Thanks!

Hi from just over the IL border.

As for an accountant do not feel like you need to use someone local. Many of us accountants have clients worldwide. Payroll, bookkeeping, etc can mostly be done remotely.

Here is a great list of questions to ask a potential accountant:http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/51/topics/70447-questions-to-ask-a-cpa

Also check out the www.NAEA.org page in your search. It should help you find someone local. If someone comes to me, I'll send them your way.

If you need help in your search or want to verify something don't hesitate to ask.

For example: I have clients worldwide and things are just as easy as I e-mail them, talking on the phone. I even use Skype and TeamViewer to communicate with clients so I'd highly recommend looking for one of the best with great references that interviews well with you.

So look for someone you can connect with that works out for your situation.

Feel free to ask here if you have questions.
