The Importance of a Specialized Real Estate Accountant

60%

of small business owners have limited financial
knowledge

According to Accountancy Age, the biggest fear for small business owners handling their own accounting is making a mistake. This is probably because 60% of small business owners have limited knowledge when it comes to the financial and accounting aspects of their business.

98%

of small business owners who have an accountant feel more confident about their business

Nine out of ten small business owners believe that their accountant plays a key role in the success of their business. In fact 10 out of 10 of the small businesses who have a CPA say other businesses should get one too and 98% said their accountant gives them more confidence in their small business.

44%

of business owners believe their accountants are more reactive than proactive

A large portion of small business owners don’t feel their accountants are coming through for them. For example, 44% claim their accountants are more reactive than proactive, with 36% experiencing timeline issues, 32% lacking sufficient guidance, 29% feeling their accountants don’t offer advice, and 23.6% not being adequately educated by their accountants.

Real Estate Data Management Regulations You Need to Know

Data management regulations are vital in real estate to protect sensitive client information, ensure transparency, and prevent fraud in transactions. They also help firms comply with legal standards, avoiding penalties and safeguarding both client trust and business integrity.

Fair Housing Act

In 1968, the federal government passed the Fair Housing Act to safeguard individuals from discrimination in housing transactions, including buying, renting, and financing. The law prohibits agents from discriminating against clients based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation), familial status, or disability.

Contractual Obligations

In real estate, contractual obligations refer to the legally binding duties agreed upon by the parties involved in a real estate transaction, such as buyers, sellers, and agents. These obligations typically include terms like property delivery, payment schedules, disclosure of property conditions, and adherence to agreed timelines, ensuring all parties fulfill their responsibilities as outlined in the contract. Failure to meet these obligations can result in legal consequences, such as breach of contract claims or financial penalties.

law

Environmental Laws

Real estate agents must also be mindful of environmental laws, which address issues like lead paint, unsafe drinking water, asbestos, and other hazards that could harm homeowners. To protect clients and the local environment, agents should stay updated on relevant federal and state regulations and ensure each sale includes a thorough home inspection.

"One of my business partners referred me to Accountant Partners a couple of years ago. They've been filing my business taxes as well as providing me with some financial growth and CFO services. They are a small team yet extremely knowledgeable on small business taxes. They were immediately able to identify ways for me to save money, via some deductions I hadn't been taking advantage of and some other general recommendations. I highly recommend them to any small business owner looking to take their business to the next level."

"Doing my own business taxes was getting complicated, messy, and stressful. Mine became even more complicated during the pandemic and I was going crazy dealing with the IRS. Then I found Accountant Partners and they have been a tremendous help! Their CPAs are very personable and give high-quality service I haven't seen anywhere else. I highly recommend them for other struggling business owners!"

FAQs

What is real estate in accounting?

Real estate accounting involves organizing and managing a company’s financial activities, including recording all transactions. Real estate accounting departments handle the financial aspects of buying, selling, and renting properties, ensuring accurate records and proper financial reporting for compliance and decision-making.

Why Accounting For Real Estate Agents is So Important?

Specialized accounting for real estate agents is essential because it helps track commissions, expenses, and taxes, ensuring accurate financial management and compliance with tax laws. Proper accounting also provides insights into profitability, cash flow, and business performance, allowing agents to make informed financial decisions and plan for future growth.

What are the skills needed for real estate accounting?

Real estate accounting requires strong knowledge of financial reporting, property management accounting, and tax regulations specific to real estate. It also demands proficiency in bookkeeping, financial analysis, and the use of accounting software

What are the principles of the real estate accounting system?

The principles of real estate accounting include accrual accounting, which recognizes revenues and expenses when they are earned or incurred rather than when cash is exchanged, and cost basis accounting, where property is recorded at its historical cost. Additionally, real estate accounting follows depreciation rules for fixed assets, tracks capital improvements separately from repairs, and adheres to revenue recognition standards for rental income, sales, and commissions.

What are some common mistakes to avoid in the real estate accounting system?

Common mistakes in real estate accounting include failing to properly separate personal and business expenses, which can complicate financial reporting and tax compliance. Other frequent errors include misclassifying capital improvements as repairs, neglecting to track depreciation, and not keeping up with changes in real estate tax laws or revenue recognition standards.
