Bank and cash tie-outs
Compare bank activity, reconciliations and ledger balances; isolate unresolved differences.
CPA CLOSE DESK · REAL ESTATE
Do not put five staff accountants on the cleanup.
Send the close to OwnerSide.
When a multifamily client's books arrive at year-end and they do not tie cleanly, OwnerSide handles the evidence-heavy accounting work: bank and ledger tie-outs, PM-record cross-checks, balance-sheet support, duplicate/error review and the unresolved-item schedule.
Your firm keeps the client, the tax judgment and the return. We give your tax team cleaner books and a shorter exception list.
✓ Fixed-scope alternative to staff-hour sprawl✓ Built around real-estate evidence✓ Human-reviewed exceptions✓ CPA remains tax authority
WHAT WE TAKE OFF THE TAX TEAM
Give OwnerSide the accounting investigation. Keep your CPAs on tax work.
The close desk is intentionally scope-limited. We do the repetitive reconciliation and evidence work, surface judgment calls and stop before tax conclusions.
Balance-sheet support
Roll forward debt, deposits, prepaid items, fixed-asset/CapEx support and other material accounts.
PM-to-books cross-check
Test owner statements, general ledger, rent roll and supporting records against independent evidence.
Duplicate / error review
Identify likely duplicate payments, miscoding, unsupported entries and unusual activity for review.
Open-item schedule
Create a concise list of questions, missing support and proposed accounting follow-up instead of a pile of raw files.
CPA-ready close package
Deliver evidence links, tie-out status and unresolved exceptions so the tax team can focus on tax judgment.
CPA WORKFLOW
One handoff instead of managing a temporary cleanup team.
CPA sends the client
Tell us the entities, unit count, systems, known pain points and deadline.
Client connects evidence
Bank data plus the PM/accounting records and source documents they already have.
OwnerSide closes the gaps
AI handles volume; accounting reviewers investigate exceptions and prepare the support package.
CPA reviews the exceptions
Your team receives the unresolved items, support and tie-out status—then makes tax decisions and prepares the return.

The CPA firm may pass the service through, bundle it into the engagement or use OwnerSide as an internal delivery cost. OwnerSide does not solicit the referred tax client for tax-preparation services.
SEND US THE MESSY ONE
Start with the client your staff least wants to clean up.
We will scope one portfolio first. If the handoff works, the firm can use the same Close Desk workflow across its real-estate client base.
