What i did was type real estate accountant (for my city) in google, looked at most if not all my options, pin-pointed the best ones based on reviews and the info on their websites, call them up and have a 10-15min discussion with the accountant who would be handling my file, book an appointment to talk to them in person if needed (max 30min to an hour... this should be a free session, and ask questions pertaining to your situation without making the person feel as if they are counseling you for free), find out their prices, go back to the drawing board and read reviews and assess your budget, then determine which CPA made you feel more comfortable, will be availablewhen needed and will not make you go broke.Good luck

Great 3 day session, learned a TON; as a realtor going in to it (with an open mind) I didn't have to try to figure out what all the words the trainer was using, because I was already familiar with them.She (the trainer) covered tons of topics, from creative financing with everything from credit cards to private money, to the major lending institution type loans.

Did anybody attend tonights free Rich Dad Education session, held at the Lancaster Host here in PA?

It was also a great way to network and to have a mini mastermind sessions about whatever area of real estate that interests you. 

I said that the lease had to end June 15th at the earliest (much harder to find tenants when school is still in session) which was in the 6-8 month window they wanted, and said the rent would be higher and I asked them to make me an offer.

Are you looking for 100% one on one coaching or with small group where you have skype sessions together with one coach? 

During his session with us he made fun of the folks charging astronomical prices for coaching and one-on-one training in general but when he was pitching Rehab 101 itself, as incentives he offered a free admission to his 5-day boot camp and... a free six month trial to his personal coaching service.
