FAQs

Have questions about what to expect from our fractional CFO and outsourced accounting services for commercial real estate operators? We’ve answered some of the most common questions we hear from prospective clients below. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, reach out anytime. We’re always happy to connect and learn more about your business.

 

What makes commercial real estate accounting different from other industries?
Commercial real estate accounting involves unique complexities like property-level income and expense tracking, lease accounting under ASC 842, multi-entity structures, and complex revenue recognition for percentage rents and tenant improvements. Unlike traditional businesses, CRE operators must manage multiple properties with different ownership structures, financing arrangements, and reporting requirements simultaneously.
How can a fractional CFO benefit my commercial real estate business?
A fractional CFO provides strategic financial leadership without the cost of a full-time executive. For CRE operators, this means expert guidance on property valuations, investment analysis, debt structuring, and portfolio optimization. Our fractional CFOs bring deep industry experience to help you evaluate acquisition opportunities, optimize financing, and prepare for exits, all while providing the financial reporting and analysis your investors expect.
What size commercial real estate businesses do you typically work with?
We serve CRE operators with varying portfolio sizes, from emerging developers managing their first few projects to established firms with portfolios worth hundreds of millions. Our services are designed to scale with your business, whether you're a growing property management company or a multi-entity real estate investment firm.
Do you have experience with our specific property type?
Our team has worked with diverse commercial real estate operations including office buildings, retail centers, industrial properties, multifamily developments, mixed-use projects, and specialized assets like medical facilities and senior housing. We understand the unique financial considerations and reporting requirements across different property classes.
Can you help us become GAAP compliant for our financial statements?
bsolutely. We specialize in bringing CRE companies into GAAP compliance, particularly around complex areas like lease accounting (ASC 842), revenue recognition for tenant improvements, and proper classification of development costs versus operational expenses. This compliance is essential for institutional investors, lenders, and potential buyers.
How do you handle multi-entity accounting structures common in real estate?
We're experienced with complex ownership structures including joint ventures, syndications, opportunity zones, and multiple investor classes. Our team can manage entity-level accounting while providing consolidated reporting, ensuring proper allocation of income, expenses, and distributions across all stakeholders.
Can you support us through an acquisition or development project?
Yes. We provide financial modeling for acquisitions, development project accounting, and investor reporting throughout the project lifecycle. Our team understands the financial complexities of both value-add renovations and ground-up development projects.
How do you measure success when working with CRE clients?
We establish clear KPIs tailored to your goals, which might include improved NOI margins, enhanced cash flow predictability, streamlined financial reporting, or successful completion of financing or exit transactions. We regularly review these metrics together and provide transparent reporting on our impact on your business performance.
What makes G-Squared Partners different from other firms?
Unlike traditional accounting firms focused primarily on compliance, our team is primarily focused on functioning as an extension of your existing accounting and finance team. Our leaders include former CFOs of publicly traded companies who have decades of combined experience in the manufacturing industry. We combine this industry experience with an unrelenting focus on precision and accuracy in our work, with multiple layers of review for all deliverables.
