Post: Do I need a CPA as a rookie investor?

I bought my first small multifamily BRRRR deal in January of 2019 and started collecting rent for it in October of 2019. I am assuming now that I own a property, it would be wise for me to get a CPA because I have heard plenty of times that a good CPA will save you more than what you pay them. Where should I look to find a good real estate savvy CPA and what questions should I ask to make sure they are a good choice for me? I live in San Antonio by the way. Thanks for taking the time to read and reply!

There are a lot of wholesalers in this area. Seems like there are signs for people buying houses in any condition in most of the neighborhoods. Local meet ups like the one Rick Pozos has or posting in facebook REI groups for San Antonio. There are tons of wholesalers floating around in there. I posted that I was looking for a small multifamily and they were coming out of the woodwork lol

@Jason Hirko I have been looking on the MLS as well. It not that I am only focusing on off market, I just didn't know if there were more options that I wasn't seeing on the MLS due to them not being listed yet.

Thank you, I will absolutely do that. Anyone know where I could find a 3 or 4plex off market? Doesn't seem to be much on the MLS, only duplexes from what i've seen.

Hi everyone, my name is Brian and I just moved here by myself from MA to start building my real estate portfolio. I am currently working as a Leasing Agent at an apartment complex in town here. Figured if I was going to own my own rental properties, learning the ins and outs of leasing by becoming a leasing agent would be a good idea. I am pre-approved for a home loan already and really looking to get into my first triplex or quad. I am really just trying to get into the real estate scene and start networking with locals to learn the market better and maybe get some helpful insight along the way. I figured this would be a good place to start since this site inspired me to leave everything 2000 miles behind so that I could start my journey to F.I. I would love to meet some new people to share the journey with!
