He's looking for an attorney to consult now but figured I would check here incase someone has dealt with this before.

I’m looking for recommendations on a CPA in the Eugene area (or surrounding areas) to consult with regarding tax strategies for both our personal income and our rental properties (in and out of Oregon).

@Mallory Austin Are you working with a HUD/FHA consultant? 

or how the tax consultation will take it out from tax?

Contact a local architect/engineer for a detailed consultation specific to your project/locale.   

Not an attorney or CPA, and I think you should consult one, but depending on what kind of upgrades were made, for you to get tax relief it would have to have  significantly increased the assessed value of the property.

Feel free to message both of them for a consultation and pick the one you feel most comfortable with.Since you are looking to start a business with a partner, you want to go with an accountant who is familiar with partnership taxation.

But that isn't my area, so you should consult with an attorney that specializes in banking attorney. 

Not ideal....But, definitely consult a local independent insurance agent and let them walk you through...that knows the full situation.
