Accounting + Controller + CFO Support
Accountants who can run the finance function.
Grace gives growing businesses a US-based CFO and Controller backed by a dedicated accounting and FP&A team. We close the books, explain what changed, forecast cash, and fix the systems behind the numbers.
Built for property managers, brokerages, mortgage businesses, construction and building-material companies, and real estate operators.
The books should explain the business, not just record it.
GAAP-ready financialsBooks that hold up.
Reliable monthly closeA date management can plan around.
Reporting management usesNumbers tied to operating drivers.

Why clients trust Grace
Built for the finance work that gets complicated.
We do not compete on client count. We earn trust by taking responsibility for difficult finance work and leaving behind a finance function that works every month.
02
End-to-end accountants
Our accountants connect pipeline, operations, receivables, cash, financials and forecast. They understand what management is running.
03
Seed stage to IPO experience
Our senior team has worked across early-stage companies, high-growth operators, investor reporting and finance environments built for institutional scrutiny.
04
A stable team
Core leaders have worked together across companies for years. Clients get continuity, shared operating habits and people who already know how to work together.
Who we exist for
When the business outgrows the finance setup.
Grace is built for businesses that have outgrown basic accounting but do not want to build a full internal finance department.
Your close is late or unreliable.The numbers arrive after the decisions have already been made.
You have accountants, but management still lacks clarity.The CEO or COO is rebuilding spreadsheets and figuring out which number is right.
Revenue looks fine. Cash does not.Working capital, AR, commissions, inventory or project timing make the business harder to read.
You are growing across entities, locations or acquisitions.The accounting structure has not kept pace with operating complexity.
You are considering another finance hire.You may not need another person. You may need a better finance function.
What Grace does
One team from accounting to decision support.
Senior finance leadership first. Strong accounting underneath it.
01
CFO
Strategic finance support for performance, cash, margin, planning, board reporting and capital decisions.
02
Controller
Close ownership, reporting quality, GAAP, controls, consolidations and financial discipline.
03
Accounting
AP, AR, reconciliations, payroll support, GL, month-end close, cleanup work and recurring reporting.
04
FP&A
Forecasting, cash planning, KPIs, budget support, working capital and business analysis tied back to actuals.
05
Systems
QuickBooks, NetSuite, Acumatica, AppFolio, Yardi, Ramp, HubSpot and the finance architecture behind them.
The usual model
More accounting capacity.
More hands can move more transactions, but capacity alone does not fix ownership, reporting or decision support.
Bookkeepers working in isolation
Senior people rebuilding work downstream
Management still interpreting the numbers alone
The Grace model
Not rented accountants. A working finance function.
A senior finance lead, a dedicated team, and one recurring operating rhythm from transaction to management decision.
One person accountable for close and reporting
Accounting that understands the operating model
FP&A and CFO support when management needs it
Client results
A few examples of what changes when finance starts working.
Anonymized examples from growing businesses where the existing finance setup had become too complex.
Accounting caught up with the brokerage.
The company was scaling quickly, but close timing, reporting and commission visibility had not kept pace.
Reliable closeBoard-ready reportingCommission visibilityChurn reportingClean 1099 workflow
Finance moved from reporting transactions to explaining how the brokerage was performing.
Management could see sales. Not cash.
A legacy on-premise ERP, a three-person finance team and multiple prior fractional CFOs still left the business with working-capital pressure and weak cash visibility.

Management finally had one view from sales pipeline to cash.
Three acquisitions became one finance function.
Grace rebuilt project-based revenue recognition, helped correct historical tax issues, established close discipline, standardized reporting and moved the business to NetSuite and Ramp.
GAAP revenue recognitionOne finance stackStructured closeNetSuite + RampLeaner core team
Multiple companies and systems became one management view and one finance cadence.
Correct. Useful. On time.
Clients stay because finance becomes easier to run and the numbers become more useful to management.

The objective is simple: someone accountable for the numbers.
Industries we know well
Finance built around how your business actually works.
We focus on businesses where accounting has to understand operational detail, not just the chart of accounts.
Property Management
Property and entity accounting, owner reporting, trust-accounting awareness, recurring close and portfolio visibility.
Property management accounting →Real Estate Brokerages
Commission accounting, agent economics, 1099s, churn, branch reporting and management insight.
Brokerage finance →Mortgage and Real Estate Finance

Mortgage finance →Construction and Building Materials

Construction finance →The economics
Build the capability. Not the payroll.
Most growing businesses do not need to build a full finance department from scratch. They need the right mix of leadership, accounting execution and reporting discipline.
