Senior Full-Cycle Real Estate Accountant - 22153

Our client is a privately owned real estate investment and operating company based in Southern California, managing a diversified portfolio of residential, commercial, retail, and specialty assets across multiple legal entities. With a hands-on, ownership-driven culture, the company prioritizes financial accuracy, accountability, operational efficiency, and long-term professional relationships. As they expand their accounting operations with a dedicated remote and onshore team structure, they offer independent contractors high autonomy, direct collaboration with leadership, and a supportive, respectful work environment.

This role offers a unique opportunity to bring expert-level Yardi mastery to an agile, multi-entity operation where you can streamline accounting workflows, strengthen internal controls, and make an immediate, high-visibility impact.
