The benefits of a real estate focused CPA are not always recognized by investors. It’s usually only after hearing Ted speak at an investor meeting that audience members will seek him out to discuss how they can improve their tax situation. Ted’s experience as an investor helps him connect with investors as an investor rather than just a tax theory CPA.

The difference between a generalist and a specialist is proportionate to your tax consequence. There are a lot of great CPA’s that know a little about a lot of different business types, but this is of limited use to someone whose business is primarily real estate. A real estate specialist makes it his job to stay up to date on the laws and opportunities to take advantage of the laws to better their clients tax situation.
