Accurate books, on time, and fully HUD-compliant.
We are a dedicated fee accounting and compliance firm for public housing authorities and federally assisted housing programs — from the monthly close through the unaudited FDS.
Full-cycle accounting built around the HUD Asset Management model
Every engagement is delivered in accordance with GAAP, the HUD chart of accounts, 24 CFR, and 2 CFR Part 200 — audit-ready and on the Agency's calendar.
Fee Accounting
General ledger maintenance, AP/AR, journal entries, accruals, and a disciplined monthly close by AMP and program.
FDS / REAC Reporting
Preparation and electronic submission of the unaudited Financial Data Schedule and REAC FASS data, with supporting workpapers.
Audit Readiness & Coordination
Ongoing internal-control pre-audits, PBC schedules, and day-to-day liaison with your independent auditor through the Single Audit.
Grant & Subsidy Compliance
Capital Fund (CFP) drawdowns, Operating Subsidy, HCV HAP and administrative fee, FSS, ROSS, and VMS reporting.
CFO & Budget Advisory
Budget preparation and revisions, variance analysis, forecasting, and financial guidance for the Executive Director and Board.
Bookkeeping & Transition Catch-Up
Backlog remediation and clean-up when books are behind, with a prioritized catch-up plan that protects your FDS deadline.
Public-sector and federally assisted housing
We focus exclusively on the agencies and programs that live inside the HUD and federal-grant compliance world.
Public Housing Authorities
Low-Rent Public Housing, Asset Management Projects, and Central Office Cost Center accounting.
Housing Choice Voucher
HAP expense and administrative-fee accounting, VMS submissions, and reserve monitoring.
LIHTC & Affordable Housing
Tax-credit property accounting, investor reporting, and mixed-finance structures.
Nonprofits & Local Government
Fund accounting, federal grant compliance, and Single Audit readiness for component units.
Compliance-first, dedicated, and accountable
A focused team that protects your deadlines and your audit outcome — not a generalist firm fitting you in between commercial clients.
HUD specialization
FDS, REAC FASS/MASS, VMS, 2 CFR Part 200, and 24 CFR are our core work, not a sideline.
Certified diverse business
DBE, WBE, and SBE certified — supporting your Section 3 and MWBE participation goals directly.
Dedicated team
A named Lead Fee Accountant and Account Director; no staffing changes without your written approval.
Secure, remote-first delivery
A client-dedicated portal as the single source of truth, with encrypted exchange of Agency statements.
Triple-check quality
Every deliverable is prepared, technically reviewed, and given a final compliance check before it reaches you.
Transition that protects deadlines
A structured handoff and catch-up plan so the first on-time package and the FDS are never at risk.
