I don’t know if this CPA is better than yours. I posted his name in this thread, so look on page 1 of this thread, the 3rd post. I like him because he’s smart, nice, and has low overhead (small office in a low-rent building next to the courthouse in El Cajon, no personal secretary), so his prices are good.

I am more surprised at the person who started this thread, who is considering a rental property, doesn’t know if he’ll save money on taxes or gets hit with the AMT tax, and is not interested in conferring with a CPA. There was a guy on another thread facing eviction because his rental home was being foreclosed, and he didn’t want to spend $200 on an attorney. I am surprised at the strong avoidance of professional help.
