Who we serve

Five investor profiles.
One playbook for each.

We work exclusively with real estate operators. That focus means we know your strategies, your forms, your audit risk, and your exits — cold.

01 / Buy-and-hold

Landlords & rental investors

Entity structure across states, suspended PALs, basis tracking, and depreciation schedules that don't lose money to typos.

Schedule E · Multi-state · Basis
02 / Active deal flow

House flippers

Dealer vs. investor classification, S-corp election timing, self-employment tax, and clean books for every property cycle.

Dealer status · S-corp · SE tax
03 / Commission income

Real estate agents & brokers

1099 income optimization, S-corp election thresholds, home office, mileage, retirement plans, and the deductions agents miss every year.

1099 · S-corp · SEP / Solo 401(k)
04 / Short-term rentals

STR investors

Material participation, average-stay rules, and the "STR loophole" against W-2 income. We get the documentation right the first time.

REPS · Avg stay · Cost seg
05 / Assignment income

Wholesalers

Dealer status, assignment-fee accounting, S-corp election timing, and the recordkeeping that holds up when deal volume spikes.

Where the money goes

Six leaks costing real estate investors five figures a year.

From sloppy books to missed tax moves — same six holes show up almost every time. Here's the damage, and what we plug.

$20K – $80Kper property

Skipping cost segregation

Most investors take 27.5-year straight-line depreciation and stop there. A study reclassifies 20–30% of basis into 5- and 15-year buckets — front-loading deductions when you need them most.

$8K – $30Kper year

Wrong entity structure

Holding flips in your name. LLCs taxed as partnerships when an S-corp would save self-employment tax. Multi-state portfolios with no holdco. Bad structure compounds every quarter.

$15K – $60Kper year

No REPS or STR strategy

The Real Estate Professional Status election (and the STR loophole) can turn paper losses into a shield against your active income. Most investors qualify and don't claim it — or claim it and can't document it.

$5K – $25Kper year

Sloppy basis tracking

Capital improvements expensed. Closing costs forgotten. Land value over-allocated. When you sell, the IRS uses their basis — not the one you wish you had records for.

$3K – $15Kper year

Books that don't match the bank

Owner draws coded as expenses. Personal cards mixed with business. Reconciliations skipped for months. By April, your accountant is doing forensic work on the clock — and your deductions are guesses.

$5K – $25Kper year

No per-property P&L

You can't tell which doors print and which ones bleed. Rents, mortgages, and repairs lumped into one bucket. Without per-property books, you can't price refis, dispositions, or your next acquisition.

$35K – $90K left on the table · every year

That's what the average $2M portfolio we onboard is leaking before we touch a single return.

Our annual fee is a fraction of that. The first 30 minutes are free.

How we work together

Three engagements.
Match the stage you're in.

Every tier includes year-end returns and quarterly check-ins. The difference is how deep we go — and how proactive we are between filings.

How it works

From base camp
to the summit.

Four phases. Predictable cadence. No surprises in April.

01 / Base camp

Free strategy call

30 minutes. We map your portfolio, the holes we usually see, and what changes would move the needle most.

02 / Route planning

Diagnostic & plan

We pull two years of returns and books, model alternate structures, and deliver a written tax plan with dollar impact and timeline.

03 / Ascent

Implementation

Entity work, cost-seg coordination, basis cleanup, election filings, books rebuilt or onboarded. You see the change instantly.

04 / Waypoints

Quarterly check-ins

Tax projections every quarter, with adjustments before December — so April is paperwork, not a panic attack.

Results in the field

What the work looks like.

Three engagements, anonymized. Names changed; numbers haven't.

Summit Growth · 3 STR cabins, Smokies

The doctor with a side of cabins.

$78,400

Qualified for the STR loophole via documented material participation. Cost-seg studies on all three properties accelerated $612K in deductions. Used against W-2 income in year one.

Summit Elite · 4 LLCs + holdco, 22 doors

The portfolio with intercompany books in shambles.

$140,000

Four entities, two bank accounts, transfers flying between them with no documentation. We rebuilt intercompany ledgers across three prior years, cleared $410K of unreconciled owner draws, and stood up monthly close so every entity's P&L finally tied.

Summit Growth · 18 flips/yr

The flipper who couldn't tell which projects made money.

$94,200

Three years of commingled receipts, no per-project P&L. We rebuilt books project-by-project, recovered $61K in miscategorized capital improvements, elected S-corp, and shaved $33K off SE tax going forward.

We came in thinking we needed a better bookkeeper. We left with an entity restructure, a cost-seg plan, and an STR election we didn't know we qualified for. The first year paid for the next ten.
Summit client · 9 rentals, two states
