Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I’ve been in the real estate game for a while, and as the CFO of [Your Company Name], I usually stick to what we know best: developing and managing Class B multifamily projects—20-50 unit properties in rural southeast US, like Georgia or Alabama.

The real pool season is 3-4 months, which also sways my opinion. 

Quote from @Mark King Sanders: I am now beginning my real estate investment journey.

I didn't have enough space in the Title:Novations where the investor uses a Limited Listing that puts them as the primary contact for scheduling showings, receiving/accepting offers and negotiating are brokering without a license.Novations where the investor actually hires a real estate broker to handle the aforementioned for the seller are not included. 

@Ross DerouenBigger Pockets is a great place to find an accountant specializing in real estate taxation.A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant specializing in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.Consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for an accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

Matthew, DFW real estate is awesome.

Two of those are Real estate Investing, and working in the Residential Construction Industry.

It also gets you into real estate sooner and lets you start gaining experience as a landlord.

Also, it can avoid filing an amendment.Another great point on eligibility- SEP IRAs require net self-employment income from activities like 1099 contract work, real estate sales, wholesaling, or other self-employment business income.Passive income as you have highlighted, does not qualify.
