Recommendation for a good RE-savvy CPA in Salt Lake valley?
Can anyone recommend a good accountant?
To make a long story short: I landlord for 5 years without realizing depreciation was non-optional. I'd like to file an IRS 3115 this year to try to recapture at least some of that, if possible...
Thanks!

Don't be afraid to use a non-local CPA. Often times by going non-local, you will expose yourself to a wider pool of CPAs allowing yourself a better chance at finding an expert in the field that meets your needs and fits your style.
If you want to use a local CPA, check with your state CPA board and ask for a referral. You can also network with people local to you or meet people at an REIA meeting and directly ask for referrals that way.
Hope this helps! Form 3115 is a complicated form, so make sure you get someone who knows what they are doing.
