REI CPA & Attorney Recommendation

[Jeremy Bohnett]

Hi all! 

I live in Seattle, but plan to do most my RE investing in the state of Arkansas to start. 

1. Any recommendations for a REI CPA and attorney for this situation?

2. How important is it that these professionals live in WA or AR? 

3. Would an REI CPA be a replacement for my CPA who does my wife and I's taxes every quarter/year OR would this REI CPA compliment the work that she is already doing?

Thanks for your help,

Jeremy
