The PM uses Appfolio and when trying to set up the ACH transfer to deposit rents to a bank account in NY, Appfolio (which is based in CA) stated to my PM that they can not do ACH transfers to NY because of 'NY Banking Laws' but they didn't provide to her further information on that.Has this happened to anyone else whose PMs use Appfolio or other similar app to get deposits from Out of State to NY or any other state?

I am a Junior Accountant in New Jersey, and I became interested because I want to achieve the financial freedom I've always dreamed of for myself and my family.

Sounds like you have a good tax accountant already and are on your way to a good team.  

I would check out yelp.com first and foremost, or do a google search, i would think that accountants who are savvy would be up on SEO. 

When you account for all the expenses and can still make money then that is what a good deal is.One more bit of feedback, Make sure you have some room by buying for less than its worth. 70% of ARV is most common for cash purchases on buy and hold properties,but you can go a little higher when financing is involved.
