Real Estate Accounting

Specialized Real Estate Accounting for Every Asset Class

Real estate bookkeeping is not a task that belongs in a generalist’s hands. The depreciation schedules, cost segregation studies, equity waterfalls, and property-level financial statements your portfolio demands require an accountant who has spent years inside the real estate industry — not one who handles dental practices on Tuesday and rental properties on Thursday.

At Rock Real Estate Services, every client account is managed personally by Matthew Rodrigue. There are no account managers passing your file between junior staff. When you call, the person who answers knows your properties, your lenders, your investors, and your goals.

What Our Real Estate Accounting Service Includes

Our full-service accounting engagement covers your books from initial setup through ongoing monthly management and investor reporting. Depending on your portfolio structure, that includes:

• Chart of accounts design — Built for your asset class (multifamily, industrial, office, land, mixed-use), not a generic small business template.
• Monthly reconciliation — Every bank account, loan account, and credit card tied to your properties is reconciled to the penny each month.
• Property-level P&L statements — Separate income statements for each property, giving you and your investors a clear view of performance at the asset level.
• Depreciation and amortization schedules — Properly structured depreciation tracking that integrates with your tax strategy and supports cost segregation elections.
• CAM reconciliation — For commercial properties, we handle tenant billings, lease abstract entry, and annual CAM true-ups.
• Debt tracking and lender reporting — Loan schedules maintained and lender-required financials prepared on time, every time.
• Investor-ready financial packages — Quarterly or monthly reports formatted for LP investors, including portfolio summaries, distributions, and K-1 support data.
• Payroll and vendor 1099s — If you have employees or contractors, we handle payroll integration and year-end 1099 preparation.

Accounting Across All Real Estate Asset Classes

We work with real estate operators across the full spectrum of property types:

• Single-family and small multifamily portfolios (long-term and short-term rental)
• Apartment communities (garden-style, mid-rise, value-add)
• Commercial: retail, office, industrial, and flex
• Self-storage and mobile home parks
• Land and development projects
• Real estate funds and syndications

Whether you own three rentals or manage a $50 million portfolio across multiple LLCs, the accounting framework we build will scale with you.

The RRES Technology Advantage

Our proprietary RRES app integrates directly with industry-standard accounting and property management platforms — including QuickBooks Online, AppFolio, Buildium, Yardi, and Rentec Direct. The integration means your property-level data flows into your books without manual re-entry, reducing errors and keeping your monthly close tight. You spend less time forwarding documents and chasing statements. We handle the data gathering so you can focus on acquiring, operating, and growing your portfolio.

Why Real Estate Investors Choose Rock Real Estate Services

Most accounting firms assign your account to a staff bookkeeper and rotate CPAs in for quarterly check-ins. That model creates information silos and missed opportunities. We operate differently:

• Personal management by a senior CPA — Matthew Rodrigue touches every account, every month. Your books are never delegated to junior staff.
• Proactive guidance, not just data entry — We flag tax planning opportunities, entity structuring issues, and cash flow concerns before they become problems.
• Virtual and available nationwide — We serve real estate investors in all 48 contiguous states. Your books are maintained in the cloud; you access reports anytime from anywhere.
• Real estate as our only focus — We do not take on restaurant clients, retail stores, or medical practices. This is a real estate accounting firm, full stop.
