Accountant (Ultra-Luxury Residential), Miami, FL ($60-65k plus $10k bonus)

We are a premier luxury real estate development firm specializing in ultra-high-end custom estates in exclusive communities throughout South Florida. Our portfolio includes waterfront mansions, architecturally significant residences, and world-class luxury properties built to the highest standards of craftsmanship and design.


SUMMARY:

We're hiring an Accountant to handle full-cycle accounting across our entity structure — including operating company books, property-level accounting, and support for fund and investor reporting. You'll work closely with the CEO and the CPA team, with direct visibility into how deals are structured, funded, and reported. This is a hands-on seat with room to grow as the platform scales.


RESPONSIBILITIES :

  • Own day-to-day accounting across multiple entities: AP, AR, journal entries, bank reconciliations, intercompany transactions, and general ledger maintenance
  • Perform property-level accounting including rent rolls, CAM reconciliations, tenant billings, and operating expense tracking
  • Prepare monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements at the property, entity, and consolidated level
  • Manage the month-end and year-end close process, including accruals, prepaid amortization, and balance sheet reconciliations
  • Process capital calls, distributions, and waterfall calculations across GP/LP structures
  • Support investor reporting: quarterly statements, K-1 coordination with tax preparers, and ad hoc LP requests
  • Assist with budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis at the property and fund level
  • Coordinate with external auditors, tax preparers, and lenders; prepare schedules and supporting documentation
  • Track loan compliance, debt service, and lender reporting requirements
  • Maintain fixed asset schedules, depreciation, and CapEx tracking
  • Help build and document accounting processes, controls, and policies as the platform scales


QUALIFICATIONS :

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
  • Strong QuickBooks knowledge
  • 3–6 years of accounting experience, with meaningful exposure to real estate or private equity
  • Strong working knowledge of GAAP; familiarity with real estate–specific accounting (straight-line rent, above/below market lease intangibles, acquisition accounting, etc.)
  • Experience with property management or real estate accounting software (Yardi, AppFolio, MRI, RealPage, or similar)
  • Advanced Excel skills — pivot tables, lookups, and the ability to build clean schedules and reconciliations
  • Comfort working across multiple entities and complex ownership structures
  • Strong attention to detail and ownership mentality; you catch your own errors
  • Ability to manage competing deadlines without losing accuracy
  • Clear written and verbal communication — you'll interact with principals, investors, and external partners


NICE TO HAVE :

  • CPA or CPA candidate
  • Experience with fund accounting, including capital calls, distributions, and waterfall mechanics
  • Familiarity with QuickBooks for smaller entities alongside enterprise systems
  • Exposure to construction draw accounting or development project accounting
  • Experience supporting audits (financial statement or investor)
  • Background in retail, multifamily, or mixed-use real estate


WHAT WE OFFER :

  • Competitive base salary commensurate with experience
  • Performance bonus tied to firm and individual performance
  • Full benefits package: health, dental, vision
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Direct exposure to principals and the deal team — you'll see how transactions get done
  • Clear path to senior accounting and controller-track roles as the platform grows

Salary : $60,000 - $65,000
