Seeking good accountant for REI in Lexington, KY

[Mike Charles]

Hi group- I've been using a good general accountant for my taxes (personal and RE LLC) for the last few years, but she doesn't seem well versed in Real Estate.

I own 2 single family homes in Lexington, and am now buying a vacation rental in FL. With the new property, and the new tax law, I'm looking for an accountant in the Lexington area who specializes in taxes for Real Estate investors. Any recommendations?

@Mike Charles I don't unfortunately but I learned a valuable lesson from Brandon Turner.  He advised that the best time to find someone is before you need them.  That covers all trades such as HVAC, Handyman etc but I've added an accountant to my list.  

With that said, good accountants are tough to find because I have a great one but he doesn't take on new clients. With that said, I'd reach out to your local REIA and ask other investors who they use and that may help you find a great local accountant.

Good luck in your search and I hope this was helpful,

Cheers,

Garth
