• Administering draw processes, capital calls, invoice verifications, payment proofs, lien waivers, and coordinating funding confirmations with lenders and partners.
• Leading financial audits, interim reviews, and tax return preparations; managing provided-by-client (PBC) lists and facilitating communication among property management companies (PMCs), auditors, and tax firms.
• Overseeing ASC 805 purchase price allocation (PPA) and cost segregation studies to ensure GAAP and tax compliance.
• Ensuring JV partners receive audited financials, K-1 forms, and filed tax returns on schedule.
