@Chad Nassar -Maybe it's time to develop a network of private investors.Share what you do with friends, family, and individuals.I heard a great piece of wisdom last night from two very seasoned investors.

Accountants are in such demand, that the best are not even accepting clients half the time.The other problem I see often with accountants on here is that they specialize in larger investors, and have really high prices when you as a smaller investor do not need all the bells and whistles.Another thing I see is folks thinking they need to have a tax professional in their state.

Look into the meetup group Bay Area Real Estate Hustler Network.

How did you all build your network/team?
