About Guardian Properties
Guardian Properties, part of the Proper family of companies, is a fast-growing multifamily investment and property management firm focused on value-add assets across key U.S. markets. We combine hands-on operational expertise with data-driven financial oversight to maximize performance and long-term value for investors and residents alike.
We’re seeking a Senior Property Accountant who thrives in a fast-paced, detail-oriented environment. This role is tactical and execution-focused — perfect for an accounting professional who understands multifamily property operations, enjoys full-cycle accounting, and takes ownership of accurate and timely financial reporting.
About the Role
The Senior Property Accountant will manage the full accounting cycle for a portfolio of multifamily properties (approximately 10–15 assets / ~1,000 units). This individual will be responsible for all property-level accounting activities — including journal entries, reconciliations, financial reporting, and month-end close — while ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and adherence to GAAP standards.
This is a hands-on role requiring strong attention to detail, independent problem-solving, and the ability to work collaboratively with both onshore and offshore team members.
Key Responsibilities
- Perform full-cycle accounting for a portfolio of multifamily properties, including general ledger, AP / AR, bank reconciliations, and accruals.
- Prepare monthly financial statements, variance analyses, and supporting schedules for 10–15 properties.
- Manage and review offshore accounting resources, ensuring accuracy and timely completion of assigned tasks.
- Reconcile balance sheets, bank statements, and intercompany accounts monthly.
- Review rent rolls, property management reports, and operating statements to ensure consistency with accounting records.
- Process journal entries, fixed assets, and adjustments in accordance with GAAP.
- Monitor property-level cash flows and coordinate funding requests with asset management.
- Assist with budgeting, forecasting, and audit support as needed.
- Ensure compliance with company policies, lender requirements, and internal controls.
- Identify opportunities to streamline processes and improve accounting efficiency.
