Real Estate Bookkeeping & Statements

I need a sharp accountant with proven real-estate experience to bring my books fully up to date and prepare clean, GAAP-ready financial statements. My rental portfolio has outgrown the simple Excel sheets I started with, and I have a financing application pending, so accuracy and speed are both critical.

What the work involves
• Catch-up and ongoing bookkeeping: categorise every transaction, reconcile bank and credit-card accounts, and organise source documents.
• Financial statement preparation: deliver a balance sheet, income statement, and cash-flow statement for the current fiscal year, all ready for lender review.

Tools
Everything is currently in Excel, but I am willing to migrate to QuickBooks Online or a similar cloud platform if that helps you move faster.

Acceptance criteria
1. Ledgers reconcile to the last cent with bank statements.
2. Statements follow GAAP formatting conventions.
3. I receive both an editable file (Excel or QBO export) and locked PDFs.
4. A brief walkthrough call so I can understand the final numbers.

If you have handled rental properties—security-deposit tracking, mortgage interest allocations, depreciation schedules—let me know. Please outline your timeline and a concise summary of relevant projects; I will award quickly so we can get started right away.
