Browse this forum, see who answers tax questions and how, and then reach out to those tax professionals who you are interested in working with.

I would also suggest filling in everything on your profile.

On your profile put your location. 1-Get a great Realtor. 2-Get a great Contractor3- look at properties. 4-Save your down payment money 5- Get your credit rating cleaned up.

4. complete your BP profile - Tell us more about yourself!...
