What to look for in a Tax Advisor/Attorney

[Wei Jie Yang]

Hi Everyone,

This is a more general question but what exactly should I look for in a Tax Advisor/Attorney? I am a complete newbie in terms of real estate investing. I own a Duplex in NYC that acts as my primary, own one property OOS, and have another one under contract. I am also a middle income W-2 worker. 

I don't feel I need a tax advisor or attorney yet, but I probably will two to three years down the line. How do I find a good tax advisor/attorney? What do I even look for? How do i know what sounds good vs what's actually good for my situation?
