Job Description

Staff Accountant – Real Estate

National Realty Corporation is looking for an accountant to join our team. If you have solid general accounting experience, you don't need a real estate background to apply. We're happy to teach you the property side.

What You'll Do

• Prepare monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements for your assigned properties
• Handle accounts payable, accounts receivable, general ledger entries, and bank reconciliations
• Check tenant leases to make sure rent, CAM charges, utilities, and other recoveries are billed correctly
• Process security deposits, move-ins/move-outs, and related lease adjustments
• Help prepare CAM and real estate tax reconciliations and tenant billings
• Support budgeting and forecasting for property operations and capital projects
• Maintain fixed asset schedules and track capital projects
• Follow internal controls and accounting policies
• Work with property managers, leasing teams, and leadership to resolve tenant and vendor questions
• Assist with audits, tax filings, and lender reporting
• Provide financial analysis to support acquisitions, sales, and refinancing

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
• 3+ years of accounting experience in any industry (real estate or property management is a plus, but not required)
• Experience with accounting software; property management systems like Yardi, MRI, Infor, or AppFolio are helpful, but we'll train you on ours
• Solid Excel skills (pivot tables, VLOOKUPs, formulas)
• Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills
• Ability to juggle multiple priorities and meet deadlines
• Clear, friendly communication skills

Nice to Have

• Experience with CAM reconciliations, real estate tax, or utility billing
• Familiarity with commercial or residential leases

Why Apply?

Your accounting skills transfer directly to this role. If you've done AP/AR, reconciliations, month-end close, or financial reporting in any industry, we encourage you to apply.
