CPA charging me $3,000 to prepare simple tax return?!!!

[David Kuhlke]

Hello BP community, 

My wife and I work w-2 jobs and own 3 rental properties... nothing crazy. Is it normal for my CPA to be charging me $3,000 to prepare our tax return? This is my first time using a CPA and I don't know what is considered normal. But I feel like something is definitely off here. I have other investor friends who pay $400-$600 to their CPA and they own multiple properties. Thoughts?

Best, 

David
