By keeping your books up-to-date and organized, we ensure that you are always in control of your finances and ready for tax season.

Cash flow is the lifeblood of any business. We help you stay on top of who owes you money and who you owe money to.

We’ll create and send your invoices on time, follow up on overdue payments politely but firmly, and ensure your bills get paid when they’re due.

 

This keeps your cash flowing smoothly and your vendor relationships healthy – both critical to running your business without interruptions.

Handling payroll can be complicated and time-consuming. From calculating paychecks and withholding taxes to filing reports with government agencies, mistakes can be costly.

 

We take care of your payroll from start to finish. We make sure your employees get paid accurately and on time, all deductions are correct, and payroll taxes are filed as required.

 

You can relax knowing your payroll is compliant and done right every time.

Numbers are only useful if they tell you something. We provide easy-to-understand financial reports that show how your business is doing.

Each month, you’ll receive reports like:

  • Profit & Loss Statement – see your income and expenses and find out whether you’re making a profit.

  • Balance Sheet – understand your business’s financial position, including assets and liabilities.

  • Cash Flow Statement – track the movement of cash in and out to ensure you can cover expenses.

We can also create custom reports or dashboards that highlight key performance indicators (KPIs) important to your business.

If you’ve fallen behind on your books, don’t worry. It’s never too late to get caught up.

Our catch-up bookkeeping service will dig into your past financials, organize everything, and update your records so they’re accurate and complete.

 

This is a great option if you’ve been too busy or unsure about bookkeeping in the past but want to get back on track before tax season or a big business decision.

Tax time doesn’t have to be stressful. We make sure your books are organized, clean, and ready for your tax professional or accountant.

By keeping your records in order year-round, you avoid last-minute rushes and unexpected tax surprises. We also help prepare necessary tax documents and support audits or reviews if needed.

  4. Compliance Assurance: Ensuring that your financial records are in order protects you from audits, penalties, and legal issues related to tax and real estate regulations.

Common Real Estate Accounting Mistakes to Avoid

While managing accounting in real estate, it’s easy to make mistakes. Here are some common pitfalls to watch out for and how to avoid them:

  1. Failing to Track Every Expense: Missing small expenses can add up. Ensure all expenses are itemized and recorded.
  2. Not Separating Personal and Business Finances: Mixing personal and business finances can cause confusion and tax issues. Always use separate accounts for business transactions.


  3. Overlooking Tax Deductions: Missing out on potential deductions can lead to overpayment. Make sure you are aware of all eligible deductions, such as marketing costs, continuing education, and office supplies.
  4. Neglecting Regular Reviews: Failing to conduct monthly financial reviews can result in missed opportunities or financial issues going unnoticed. Regular checks ensure you’re on top of your finances.

Real Estate Accounting Best Practices

To avoid common mistakes and streamline your processes, here are some accounting best practices every real estate professional should follow:

1. Conduct Monthly Reviews

Regularly reviewing your financials helps spot discrepancies early and allows you to pivot if necessary.

Implement an automated system that pulls reports for you, ensuring accuracy and efficiency. 

Keep your business finances separate to simplify tracking and tax preparation.

Properly itemize all incoming and outgoing transactions to avoid confusion and ensure accurate tax filings.

Make sure you’re aware of any local changes to tax laws that could affect your business.
