CPAs: Local vs National

[Ryan Moore]

I'm starting the daunting task of finding a real estate CPA who can provide me the type of guidance we all seem to be looking for.  I own one multifamily with long term goals of purchasing several more and to buy and hold indefinitely.  I live in Phoenix, AZ and I am curious if I should just be looking locally due to state tax laws, etc. Or is that viewed as not really a big deal and I should be looking more nationally for the right fit.

So far I've only interviewed one potential CPA and it was ok.  I don't really know if I should be looking for more than what came out of that conversation based off my current situation.  Looking for any possible rec's from this great networking site.

@Ryan Moore You should interview @Brandon Hall.  He's been a wealth of knowledge for our BP community.  I'm sure he could help you.
