How We Supported a Real Estate CPA Firm with Reconciliations Across 40+ Properties

Stonewell Co. Real Estate CPAs is a boutique accounting firm serving real estate investors, property management groups, and development firms across the East Coast. Their services include property-level bookkeeping, owner reporting, loan compliance, and year-end tax preparation for portfolios of all sizes.

The firm had grown through referrals and steady industry relationships – but so had the number of units under their watch.

Managing reconciliations for over 40 rental and commercial properties, each with its own account structure, banking setup, and reporting requirements, was becoming a serious bottleneck.

While the client-facing work remained under control, the back-office workload was piling up. The partners didn’t want to hire just for reconciliations – and they didn’t want to risk errors or delays in financials that were used for audits and investor updates.

They needed experienced help that could adapt fast, follow process, and stay invisible to the end client.

Stonewell Co. engaged Accountably to strengthen their reconciliation process while keeping the core team focused on strategy and oversight.

Here’s how we supported them:

Assigned a team with real estate accounting experience and familiarity with platforms like AppFolio, Buildium, and QuickBooks
Handled bank, loan, credit card, and escrow reconciliations for 40+ properties across multiple entities
Set up monthly close workflows tailored to Stonewell’s review and sign-off process
Delivered clear reconciliation summaries for internal QA and external reporting
Used secure, shared dashboards for real-time updates and file management

With Accountably working in the background, Stonewell Co. regained control of their reconciliation workload – without hiring or reworking their internal team structure.

With reconciliations handled consistently and accurately by Accountably’s team, Stonewell Co.’s internal staff was able to step away from repetitive, time-consuming tasks and refocus their attention on higher-value client services.

Partners spent more time advising on real estate portfolio strategy, preparing forward-looking budgets, and planning for year-end taxes – work that not only deepened client relationships but also opened up new revenue opportunities.

“We didn’t need a new team. We needed more muscle behind the scenes. Accountably gave us exactly that – clean, consistent work without disturbing our internal rhythm.”
