Behind every well-run property is someone making sure the numbers actually tell the truth. That's the job. We're hiring a Remote Property Accountant to manage financial reporting across a real estate portfolio, fully remote, at $92,000 a year.
What This Job Is Really About
Property accounting isn't just entering numbers into a system. It's catching the small discrepancy before it becomes a bigger problem, explaining a budget deviation to someone who isn't an accountant, and keeping records clean enough that an audit doesn't turn into a crisis. Done well, this work quietly supports everything else a property team is trying to accomplish.
Reporting and Forecasting
- Produce accurate financial statements for individual properties and larger multi-property portfolios.
- Track income and expenses, keep budgets aligned, and correct course when needed.
- Dig into deviations and explain what they mean, not just that they happened.
Keeping the Ledger Clean
- Reconcile balance sheets and income statements on a regular basis.
- Enter journal entries and periodic adjustments in line with internal controls.
- Keep records organized enough that a review or audit doesn't require weeks of prep.
Working With Other Teams
Property managers rely on you to make sense of the numbers behind their decisions, not just hand them a spreadsheet. You'll help with forecasting, interpret financial data across departments, and translate dense reports into something a non-financial colleague can actually act on.
Staying Compliant
- Follow property accounting regulations at every level of government that apply.
- Support audit readiness and help improve internal controls over time.
- Stay ahead of transparency requirements instead of scrambling to catch up.
How the Team Works
This is a distributed team, so most collaboration happens through shared tools and regular check-ins rather than hallway conversations. That said, the team makes a real effort to keep things connected — through peer recognition, learning sessions, and a genuine emphasis on inclusive dialogue where different perspectives are actually heard, not just tolerated.
Tools You'll Use
- Online accounting platforms built specifically for property finance.
- Cloud-based ledgers for ongoing accuracy across the portfolio.
- Spreadsheets for forecasting and financial planning.
- Secure platforms for document management and team communication.
- Property software integrations that keep reporting consistent.
Full training is provided on all of these, so prior expertise with the specific platforms isn't a dealbreaker.
What You'll Need
- Minimum required education: Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
- At least 3 years of experience in property or real estate accounting.
- Comfort with financial software and remote team collaboration.
- Solid understanding of financial standards specific to real estate.
- Independent work habits that still hold up well in a collaborative setting.
- Clear, inclusive communication, especially when explaining financial concepts to non-specialists.
- A genuine commitment to accuracy and steady improvement over time.

Growth and Support
New hires get real onboarding here, not a generic checklist — it's built around individual learning preferences and career goals. One-on-one mentorship, leadership development, and inclusive networking groups are all part of how the team supports growth at every career stage, not just for people just starting out.
Compensation and Benefits
- Annual salary of $92,000.
- Fully remote work with genuine flexibility in where and how you work.
- Health, dental, and vision coverage.
- Paid time off and standard holiday leave.
- Support for professional development and continued education.
- A workplace built around inclusive leadership and equitable growth.
How to Apply
We invite applicants from the USA, Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Union, Australia, India, and many other countries. Send your resume along with a short note on a discrepancy or reporting challenge you've solved — we're interested in how you actually work through a problem, not just your credentials on paper.
