Your Elite Bookkeeper, LLC

10/16/2026

🏘️ I now have nine FL HOA and condo associations in my accounting portfolio, with meetings scheduled with two more FL HOAs. It’s an area of my business I really enjoy.

For boards that self-manage - or are considering it - the accounting can be a big question. Who will keep the books, invoice dues, track reserves, and prepare financial reports? 📊

I’m a CPA familiar with Florida Statutes Chapters 718 and 720, and I help associations handle exactly that.

Self-management doesn’t mean your board has to do the bookkeeping, too.

After finishing a cleanup of the books for my newest client, I took notice of the high payment processing fees he was paying to QuickBooks. 👀

So I took a look. In addition to offering payment via ACH, he was also offering payment via credit card 💳 — which carries a higher fee. He was unknowingly also opting in to “Instant Deposit,” which transfers funds within minutes — for a fee, of course.

Cash flow is not an issue with this client, so Instant Deposit isn’t necessary — and ACH is a perfectly suitable payment option for his customers.

I showed him how much he would have saved Jan to Aug this year alone by turning off Instant Deposit and offering only ACH — almost $3k. 💰

Needless to say, we made those changes. ✅

Sometimes paying for a bookkeeper is a hard pill to swallow. But if you hire the right person, you’ll see that value pretty quickly.

I’m currently working with a nonprofit that was awarded two grants and wants to make sure they have a clear understanding of the financial requirements before putting those funds to use.

We’re reviewing what the grant funds can be used for, a proposed revised budget, how certain grant-funded payments should be accounted for and documented, and how the organization should track the funds going forward.

It’s much easier to establish the right accounting and documentation upfront than try to sort it out after the money has already been spent.

Whether it’s grant funding, a unique accounting issue, or another financial question that falls outside of day-to-day bookkeeping, I also offer one-time CPA consulting and advisory services. ✔️

🥂 𝗧𝘄𝗼 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀! 🥂

Two years ago, I started Your Elite Bookkeeper, LLC while still working a very demanding full-time corporate accounting job at Orlando Utilities Commission.

For that first year, I juggled both. I worked my regular job during the day and squeezed my business in wherever I could — early mornings, nights, weekends.

Then, in order to keep growing, it was time to quit my cushy corporate gig.

So I did. I jumped. And holy cow, have I flown.

I could list so many things I love about working for myself and the work I do for my clients.

But owning my time is at the top of that list. Being in complete and total control of what my days look like. After spending an entire career in the corporate world, it’s a feeling of freedom I didn’t know existed.

If you’ve been climbing the corporate ladder your whole career, what would it look like if you built your own? I’ll tell you, it’s life changing.

This week, I’m working with a single-member LLC to evaluate whether an S-Corp election makes sense, determine whether a late election is available, and handle the S-election filing.

That also means helping the owner understand what comes next — payroll, reasonable compensation, and how operating as an S-Corp changes the way they pay themselves.

📊 Accurate books are important, but sometimes business owners need more than reconciliations and transaction categorization.

With 20+ years of accounting experience, I help my clients understand the bigger picture and navigate the accounting decisions that come with running and growing a business.

💡 A recent example of why experience in accounting matters...

One of my clients had a recurring charge from LinkedIn for nearly $2,000. 💳

At first glance, it didn't look alarming - businesses use LinkedIn all the time.

However, because I'm familiar with my client's business and spending patterns, I asked about it. 👀

They had no idea the charge was coming.

After contacting LinkedIn, they were able to have the charge refunded. ✅

This is one of the biggest differences between simply categorizing transactions and actually reviewing your books.

📊 Sometimes the value of a good accountant isn't in the reports I prepare - it's in the questions I ask.

📊 When I advertise my services, I make it a point to say that I'm a CPA + MBA with 20+ years of corporate accounting experience.

I do this because I want business owners to understand who I am, professionally.

✔️ Educated
✔️ Experienced
✔️ Licensed

And someone who genuinely loves accounting.

I don't need a roadmap. I don't need guidance from my clients to figure out what needs to be done.

I review your books, identify what needs attention, and get to work.

Over the years, I've handled thousands of reconciliations, financial statements, accounting processes, and balance sheet issues. That experience matters.

Anyone can categorize transactions.

The real value comes from understanding the story behind the numbers, recognizing when something doesn't look right, and knowing how to fix it.

That's the difference between bookkeeping and accounting.

One thing about working with me - if there’s an issue, I don’t just point it out and leave my clients to figure it out on their own. 💻

One of my clients recently transitioned from QuickBooks to Buildium and we ran into some accounting-related system issues after the conversion. I’ve been working directly with Buildium support to troubleshoot the problems, identify workarounds, and keep things moving forward - while also keeping the client updated throughout the process so they’re never left wondering what’s going on. 🔍📊

That’s part of the value I provide.
Not just bookkeeping. Not just reports.

But being a true accounting partner who helps clients navigate problems, communicates with vendors/software providers, and makes sure things are handled correctly behind the scenes. 🤝📈

What should you expect from me when I’m closing out your month?

It’s not just me working quietly in the background and sending reports.

A proper close is collaborative — and you’ll hear from me when I need to make sure everything is right.

That can look like:

• Questions on transactions that need clarification 🤔
• Requests for statements or missing documentation 📄
• Follow-ups on anything that doesn’t fully tie out 🔍
• Confirmation of unusual or one-off activity

These details matter when it comes to your financials, and that's how I ensure your financials are not just complete, but accurate and reliable.
