Real Estate Services

A shaky economy and tightened financing have made real estate a challenging area in which to operate, yet the opportunities are certainly there for those who are ready to seize them.

RLB LLP is the business partner you need to help manage the risks and capitalize on those opportunities.

With hundreds of real estate clients of every type – agents, condominium corporations, REITS, commercial and residential landlords and property managers – we understand the challenges specific to your business.

Improving Business Operations

We truly enjoy working with real estate clients, and that means we go the extra mile to help you improve your business operations. In meetings with clients, we review an annual checklist of business and personal goals, as well as a “report card” that summarizes the company’s financial ratios and compares them to industry norms. Using this report, we recommend strategies for improving cash flow, profitability, cost allocation and other aspects of operations.

We often help our clients address their financing concerns by seeking out new sources of financing, including private mortgage brokers.

For our condominium clients, we consider it part of our job to help board members understand the issues they face and how to execute their responsibilities properly. In addition to educating clients directly, we have also presented on the topic to the Canadian Condominium Institute.

Accurate, Efficient Compliance

We work with you to identify ways to make your audit and tax return preparation as efficient and cost-effective as possible.

We are always up-to-date on accounting rules and regulations, as well as best practices in serving each type of real estate client. Our internal review processes and ongoing training ensure that we are continuously improving our services.
