Best Advice for Finding a Great CPA for Rental Properties

Please share any tips on how you found an experienced and highly motivated CPA. What are the qualities you look for in a CPA to determine if they are the right fit for your rental portfolio and goals? Would it be advisable for your CPA to operate in the same state/city as your properties? 

I've used TurboTax in the past but I think it's time to get serious about ensuring my taxes are in order.

@Harrison Lopes You should look for a CPA who specializes in real estate and, preferably, invests themselves. CPAs can work across state lines (we work with clients virtually across the country). There are a good amount of tax pros here on the forums and I believe most offer a free intro meeting (we do) - I would recommend speaking with a few to see if there's a good fit for you and your business.
