JOB OVERVIEW

Key Responsibilities and Success Metrics

We are a growing real estate investment company focused on multifamily acquisitions and operations, with a specialty in manufactured housing communities. As we continue to expand our portfolio, we are looking to hire a detail-oriented Bookkeeper to join our team and support day-to-day accounting operations across our entities and properties.

Bookkeeper

Complete initial data entries and ongoing coding of bank/credit card activity for each entity/property into AppFolio and QuickBooks, which may include but isn’t limited to, tenant rent, owner contributions/distributions, mortgage/loan payments, insurance, taxes, expenses, and reimbursements.

Categorize transactions to the correct entity/property, class, and account (including proper treatment of capital improvements vs. operating expenses) and reconcile source data to statements.

The expectation is to research transaction types (historical books, vendor websites/invoices, lease terms, and prior-period coding) before escalating questions to a senior tea ---------- mber, and to document any new coding rules for consistency.

• Measure of Success: 95%+ transaction coding accuracy (entity/property/class/account) and monthly bank/credit card reconciliations completed within 15 days of statement availability
• Measure of Success: All recurring vendors, rent deposits, loan payments, and reserve transfers are set up with consistent coding rules and documented so that month-over-month reporting is stable and easy to review.
• Measure of Success: Open reconciliation items (unmatched transactions, bank-to-book differences, uncleared deposits/charges) are tracked and resolved within the next close cycle, with clear notes for any timing differences.

Assist in the preparation of monthly statements including:
• Profit/Loss Statement
• Balance Sheet
• Cash Flow Statement
• Expense reports
• Unidentified credit card expense reports

• Measure of Success: Less than 15% of prepared financial statements require rework due to bookkeeper-controlled items (coding, reconciliations, missing schedules).
• Reports are delivered by the agreed monthly deadline and include clear property/entity-level support (e.g., key schedules for loans, reserves, capex, and owner activity) when applicable.
• Measure of Success: Month-end close checklist items owned by the bookkeeper (reconciliations, schedules, accrual/deferral support when used) are completed on time and signed off with minimal follow-up questions from leadership or the CPA.

Qualifications
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
• 2 years+ of US bookkeeping experience with a U.S. accounting, finance, or real estate firm
• Required proficiency in QuickBooks Online (QBO) or similar software
o AppFolio experience is preferred but not required.
• Strong communication skills, both written and verbal
• Strong analytical skills and worth ethic
• Interest in real estate
• Tech-savvy, with proficiency in tools such as Microsoft Excel
