hi everyone, I have been investing in real estates over the years without really knowing how to tap into any networks.  I love Camas, WA area and would love to meet any like minded people to share and discuss.

I am also curious to see if there are great real estate related CPA here that are highly recommended?  I have not had great experiences with CPAs in general, where majority of the time I am doing the same amount of work for them as I would using TurboTax, and the outcome is pretty much all the same besides that I just get charged a lot more.  I thought maybe that was just my initial experience, but one time I gave it another try, the CPA essentially told me that I have everything so organized that I really don't need her.  I have heard great stories about how good CPAs are able to strategize with you, inform you how to structure your properties and assets to maximize protections and minimize tax, but it sounds so much like a fairytale that I have not had any personal experiences with them.  Maybe it will change now that I have a community of likeminded people to turn for advice.  :).  Thanks!
