@Samantha GoochBelow are some of the main differences between a CPA and EACPA1) Require completion of a college degree with certain classes in accounting, tax, audit, etc2) Require passing 4 exams on Audit, Tax, Law, Business3) Required continued education4) Can practice in Tax, Assurance or Advisory5) Eligible to represent you infront of the IRSEA1) passing 3 exams dedicated to tax2) Required continue education3) practice in Tax4) Eligible to represent you infront of the IRSThe CPA designation is more prestigious because it is much more difficult to obtain.The Tax portion of the CPA exam is more difficult than the 3 EA exams.The other item is that a college degree is not required(Just that you are atleast 18 years of age).With that said, you can have good CPA or bad CPA's.You can have good EA's and bad EA's.Also, please be careful on this webforum, there are many 'tax professionals' that are neither a CPA or an EA.Best of luck

I don’t think prince sparkle socks is going to take his foot off the throat of the oil industry until he’s out as leader.

There are several prestigious markets like Clear Lake, Friendswood, and Pearland to name a few.

It’s not just the money but it makes me feel great that I’m also providing other families and their kids with a sparkling clean, beautiful place to stay while on vacation.

We have rented several places, we didn't get any sparkling appliances.We didn't miss any "bad parts"; its just some people have very high standards of what they consider clean like wash an already washed plate or spoon before using and some others would just rinse their coffee cup before pouring in their evening cup.but then you should bring it up before you sign the lease.

@Vincent S.There are two credentials that most sophisticated tax professionals have.CPA(Certified Public Accountant) & EA(Enrolled Agent).CPA designation is the more prestigious of the two.There is no designation to indicate that he/she is a professional is 'real estate tax'.I would have a casual conversation with the purchases that you made and how the rental is performing. 

It was an excellent price, right next a relatively prestigious Private University, in a neighborhood that had been increasing in value faster than the rest of the city (Tulsa).How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Let's say you go and rent an apartment in a sparkling modern building in downtown San Francisco

Hi Sparkle, I'm in the same boat.
