Post: As a REI what do I look for in a financial advisor?

I am new to BiggerPockets. I’ve been doing property management, building fixing and holding for near 40 years - the last 20 years independently. My wife and I are retirement age now. She wants the security now of a financial advisor. I am ready to expand. We have 4 buildings now and I am wanting to grow that for retirement income to at least 4 buildings more. Is a financial advisor recommended? What kind? Does it matter? Thanks for your input.

I am a new Pro member and want to get pre-qualified for quick purchase opportunities of $30,000 to $100,000. How do I find a good low-end residential Chicago area lender? Any recommendations?
