A good real estate accountant can save them thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend that they find a tax accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.I would also recommend that they look for a accountant willing to work with them throughout the year, who can help them strategize and who is responsive when they want to know the consequences of the financial decisions they are making throughout the year.Good luck.

Lenders or investors who have short lock up periods but have years of experience feeding their business with new capital would give me more comfort but anyone who is just starting and is promising a rate of return or return of capital in a set period of time would be alarming because they very well could be reliant on fresh capital to make good on that promise and that usually ends poorly.

Although most of my stays are <7 days, I've had a few longer stays (business travelers and a family that was going through a full home remodel).

But, primarily my main business is remodel work. 

It was a great crash course on the basics of a RAL business from location, staffing, patient selection, and branding.

My significant other and I decided to use a builder she had done business with in the past.
