I’m looking for a CPA to do my last year taxes as they got complicated.  

I'm not an expert, but it will really depend on your tax needs.   

If a property is transferred to an LLC, would that trigger a new appraisal for property tax?

Any CPA/EA/Tax Preparer can DO your taxes. 

That same financial calculator will indicate you killed it, earning 5% on that string of 12 payments.

. $13k in yearly taxes between the two duplexesAbout $200 a month in water between the two (no sewage, on septic) tenants pay all other utilitiesInsurance- $200 a monthSelf managedI truly feel like I have given him some real win-win offers and nothing is sticking.

First I am assuming by several years it has been more than 2 tax reporting years since the 1031 exchange.

Aside from mortgage and tax filing implications, what other considerations should I be thinking of?

And fun fact, most states exempt groceries from sales tax, (again, actual groceries that are whole food, and not processed).

I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good CPA in Davis or Salt Lake County who has experience doing taxes for real estate investors.Thanks,John
