Episode 81: Is Your Accountant Doing ENOUGH

Is your accountant actually doing enough? In today's episode of the On Purpose Investor Podcast, our hosts Eric and Tiffany tackle the important question: Is your account doing enough? Together, we unravel the financial complexities of real estate investing, highlighting the crucial roles of accountants, bookkeepers, and CFOs. 

Tiffany, who is a Georgetown graduate with a master's degree in finance, emphasizes the significance of strategic financial planning over mere historical data analysis. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone looking to scale their real estate investment endeavors intelligently and sustainably.

Key Takeaways from this Episode:

• The role of an accountant is to provide a historical look at your business and help with tax preparation and strategy. However, to truly succeed, businesses need a financial view that goes beyond what accountants typically offer.
• Hiring a bookkeeper becomes necessary when managing multiple properties, as they can categorize transactions, reconcile accounts, and generate management reports, providing a clear financial picture for the accountant to work with.
• Building a system around your finances is crucial for maximizing returns, minimizing taxes, and making strategic decisions. Consider investing in a financial starter kit or seeking the guidance of a fractional CFO to ensure your business is set up for success.
