Hello all! I was wondering if anyone in the Winston Salem area had any CPAs they would recommend. I'm just starting out and I'm trying to figure out the best way/safest way to structure my investments. 

There is a ton of good info in here and great people to network with and learn from.

You will want to start building a team in the area that you plan to invest, once you have financing figured out you can essentially start to BRRRR (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat).Challenges:-Start networking with local investors and you'll learn about what they're doing/how they are finding deals.

Also, I'm a CPA, so luckily I can do my own taxes and don't have to worry about bookkeeping costs.

All my investments are made with the tax law in mind since I’m a Tax CPA.

I owe specific thanks to @Scott Trench for his book, Set For Life, which played a big part in my decision making process, as well as @Brandon Turner and @Joshua Dorkin.I've spent the last 3 years behind a desk as an MLO for one the country's biggest hard money lender, working specifically with brokers across the country to facilitate loans on behalf of their clients, and the learnings from that position and the time I've spent on BP, reading the BP publications and forums has given me the confidence to undertake this life changing pursuit.If you or someone you know/partner with is looking for financing on any upcoming real estate investment, let me know - I strive to be of value and have an extensive lender network to ensure quick terms and reliable financing.

I'm interested in partnering, but much of my network is teachers... they don't have the money.

It might help to get a good bookkeeper separate from your CPA.
