Post: Real Estate CPA/Tax Advisor in Seattle

Does anyone know of a good CPA in the greater Seattle area? I am a flipper looking for someone who specializes in RE investing tax returns and advise/guidance throughout the year. 

Gray is out, if you opt to change the floors I'd go with Denali. If it's a rental, try to keep costs down and do other value adds like new tile on the fireplace.

Hello, I’m painting the exterior of a flip and wondering what paint line do flippers use at sherwin Williams?

Emerald and duration are their higher end lines. super paint and A-100 are their lower lines. 

Any recommendations? 

Thanks!


Hi Patrick. I guess you could say we're slow flippers... we move every few years and buy a new fixer-upper.

Sherwin Williams brand products are generally fantastic, but they are expensive - even with a contractor discount, in my opinion. For kitchen cabinets, Sherwin's line of Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel is a decent choice. 

For interior paint, I usually purchase PPG Speedhide in a satin finish from Home Depot and have them tint it to match Sherwin colors. Since the PPG product costs about $130 for 5 gallons, this saves a fortune! For exterior use, Glidden Premium, again from Home Depot, can be also be tinted to Sherwin colors at a cost of about $175 for five gallons.

Hope this helps,

Scott
 


 Hi Scott - thanks for the tips, greatly appreciated!

For the exterior I went with SW Duration in Peppercorn for siding and Tricorn Black for the trim. Love the modern look of these two together. 

Thanks again.
