Hi Rebecca,
There are quite a few discussions on Accountants and who`s recommended. Location should not matter, I choose my accountant based on quality and the fact that they are investors themselves (therefore have studied tax options).
I recommend that you use the quick search button at the top of this page and type in accountant to see some of the other threads. In addition, in the Members Only Resource Directory (in the Forums) there will be others listed there as well as recommendations from your fellow Members.
Have fun. Interview a couple, make sure your personalities match as well.
