Nonetheless, congratulations on your investment in Hammond :) that's a great place with relatively low price points + low taxes that we love! 

Lower cost of entry, landlord friendly, low property taxes, no state income tax and only a few hours from NorCal.

I track everything tax related as well. 

Will they also provide you with comprehensive tax planning? 

We've found it has superior reporting features, integration features, and is overall more efficient to work within than other REI-specific software.The downside is QBO is not set up for REI so you'll need to do that or work with an expert to ensure it is set up for your business appropriately.Something else to keep in mind is your entity structure and how your entities file tax returns.

It may be the best option but there are quite a few other strategies as well that could help lower your tax burden when you move on from this current property.
