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.

@Hedman Maximus too many investors worry about DIY pennies, while losing dollars - which it seems you may be doing.Why can't you hire a PMC to handle the properties for you?

But luckily MA/NE is so small you can invest in a different state and still be driving distance.

.: Quote from @Basit Siddiqi: I think it lies in that a lot of service providers in the real estate space are incentivized(money wise) to promote thier business.Real Estate agents are a small business, the more clients they have, the more money they make.Property managers are a small business, the more clients they have, the more money they make.Lenders, correct me if im wrong, are tied to some sort of bonus structure, the more loans they generate, the more money they make.More promotion leads to more awareness which leads to more money With all do respect I think REA's are commissioned sales people.

You can open a Self-Directed IRA and use the IRA funds to buy a house using a Non-recourse loan. 

Start by getting pre-approved for a loan, ensuring your credit score, debt-to-income ratio, and finances meet lender requirements.

Consider starting small by house hacking a single-family home, renting out rooms, or adding an ADU if possible.

Another option is house hacking—buying a small multi-unit, living in one, and renting the rest to cut costs.

Many successful investors started small, such as with house hacking or buying affordable properties to rent out.
