CPA Accounting for Real Estate Investors, Developers

Real estate investing brings big opportunities—but also complex tax and reporting requirements. Whether you manage rentals, flip properties, or structure joint ventures, you need CPA-level accounting designed specifically for real estate.

At Accuracy CPA, we provide tax-optimized accounting services for investors, developers, and real estate operators across Arizona and nationwide. From property-level books to strategic tax planning, we help you protect your profits and grow smarter.

Headquartered in Gilbert, AZ — Serving clients locally and across the U.S.

Your books should reflect the true performance of each property or unit. We structure your accounting system to track:

• Rental income and late payments
• Mortgage interest, insurance, and taxes
• Repairs vs. capital improvements
• Owner contributions, draws, and equity balances
   

No more commingled accounts or guesswork—just clean, audit-ready books that scale with your portfolio.

We customize your chart of accounts to reflect:

• Deductible operating expenses
• Long-term capital assets
• Improvements vs. repairs (for accurate depreciation)
• Portfolio-wide vs. property-specific costs
   

This ensures clear financial reporting and optimized tax treatment.

Depreciation is a core part of real estate investing—but many investors get it wrong.

We handle:

• MACRS depreciation
• Section 179 deductions
• Bonus depreciation on eligible improvements
• Cost segregation study guidance for larger investments
   

Let us ensure you’re not leaving depreciation benefits on the table.

We manage your 1099 filing for property managers, contractors, and vendors—so your records are IRS-compliant and stress-free at year-end.

Real estate tax planning is never one-size-fits-all. We help you:

• Classify passive vs. active income
• Minimize capital gains through timing and strategy
• Leverage 1031 like-kind exchanges
• Qualify for Real Estate Professional Status (REPS)
• Optimize depreciation schedules across properties
   

Whether you own one property or a large portfolio, we ensure your strategy evolves with your investments.

Our services are tailored for real estate investors and professionals, including:

• Residential and commercial landlords
• Short-term rental owners (Airbnb, VRBO)
• Flippers and rehabbers
• Real estate developers and syndicators
• Partnerships, multi-member LLCs, and holding companies
• New investors structuring their first entity

• Deep understanding of real estate tax law
• CPA oversight on every account
• Multi-entity and multi-property accounting support
• Forward-looking tax strategy—not just compliance
• Based in Gilbert, AZ — proudly serving clients nationwide

Q: Do I need an LLC for my rental properties?
LLCs can provide both legal protection and tax benefits, depending on your setup. We help you structure it correctly and ensure compliance from the start.

Q: Should I keep separate books for each property?
You don’t need separate files, but we recommend property-level tracking within your accounting software. We’ll set this up for clear reporting and smarter decisions.

Q: What accounting systems do you support?
We specialize in QuickBooks Online, but also support QuickBooks Desktop and can recommend real estate-specific integrations depending on your portfolio size.

Q: Do you support investors outside of Arizona?
Yes. While our firm is based in Gilbert, AZ, we serve real estate clients nationwide, especially those operating across multiple states or planning cross-border investments.

Whether you’re managing two rentals or developing multi-family projects, you need accounting that’s structured to protect your profits, reduce tax liability, and guide your next move.

Let’s make sure your accounting and tax strategy are built for the portfolio you're growing—not just the one you have today.
