Not Just Bookkeepers

Most outsourced bookkeeping firms hand your files to data entry clerks. We don’t.

Staff Accountants With CPAs on the Team

Your books are managed by degreed staff accountants. We have CPAs on our team. Journal entries, financial statement prep, and variance analysis get done right the first time.

Full-Service Accounting, Not Just Data Entry

Month-end close, financial statement analysis, and reporting that goes beyond recording transactions. We handle the accounting work most bookkeeping firms can’t.

A Dedicated Team, Not a Software Tool

No DIY dashboards or AI-generated reports you have to review yourself. A dedicated accounting team that knows your industry handles everything.

Commission Splits Without the Spreadsheet Chaos

The problem: Most brokerages track commission splits in spreadsheets that get stale the moment someone closes a deal. By month-end, nobody trusts the numbers.

How we fix it: We reconcile every commission payment in QuickBooks monthly, tracking gross amounts, splits, fees, and referral payments with a full audit trail. Your agents get paid correctly. You see exactly what the brokerage keeps.

1099 Season as a Non-Event

The problem: Every January, brokerages scramble to figure out who was paid what. Missing data means late filings, penalties, and frustrated agents.

How we fix it: Because we track agent payments throughout the year, 1099 preparation is just a button click. No scrambling, no surprises, no January fire drill.

Property Management Books That Actually Sync

The problem: Your PM software (AppFolio, Buildium, Yardi) and QuickBooks don’t talk to each other. Owner statements take days to produce and nobody trusts the numbers.

How we fix it: We integrate your PM platform directly with QuickBooks, reconcile trust accounts, and produce owner statements that are accurate and on time — every month.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does outsourced accounting cost for a real estate company?
Pricing depends on transaction volume, number of agents, and whether you need property management accounting. Most real estate clients are in the $1,500 to $4,000 per month range. We provide a specific quote after a 15-minute assessment of your current setup.

Can you handle commission split tracking for multiple agents?
Yes. We track splits across any number of agents and transaction types. Whether you have 5 agents or 50, we reconcile every commission payment monthly and prepare all 1099s at year-end.

Do you work with AppFolio and Buildium?
Yes. We integrate with both platforms for property management accounting. We handle the reconciliation between your PM software and QuickBooks so your financials are always in sync.

What if our books are a mess from a previous bookkeeper?
We offer a QuickBooks cleanup service to get your books back on track. Most cleanups take 2-4 weeks depending on how far behind things are. Once clean, we take over ongoing monthly accounting and bookkeeping.

Do you prepare 1099s for real estate agents?
Yes. Because we track agent payments throughout the year, 1099 preparation is seamless. No scrambling in January to figure out who was paid what.

How does the month-end close process work?
We close your books by the 15th of every month. This includes bank and credit card reconciliations, journal entries, accruals, and a complete financial package (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow) delivered to your inbox.

Are your team members actual accountants?
Yes. Our team is made up of staff accountants with accounting degrees, and we have CPAs on staff. That means your month-end close, journal entries, financial statement prep, and variance analysis are handled by people who understand accounting at a professional level — not data entry clerks recording transactions.
