About the Client

Accruity is a US-based financial strategy and back-office solutions firm serving real estate investors and service-based businesses. Led by a team of specialized financial advisors, the firm delivers end-to-end support from outsourced bookkeeping and accounts payable to deal underwriting, proformas, and business coaching.

Their key differentiator is the combination of execution-level bookkeeping with high-touch strategic advisory helping clients across real estate portfolios, flipping, construction, and property management not just keep clean books, but use their financials to make smarter growth decisions. With over 100 business owners served, Accruity positions itself as the financial backbone its clients never had in-house.


The Challenge

  1. Growing volume of clients requiring meticulous monthly bookkeeping across multi-entity real estate structures
  2. Senior advisors spending too much time on transaction-level execution instead of strategy and client coaching
  3. Skilled bookkeepers in the US familiar with real estate-specific accounting were expensive — onshore resources commanding $6,000–$10,000 per month made scaling unsustainable
  4. Month-end close cycles stretching under peak volume, delaying financial reporting to clients
  5. Need for consistent, audit-ready workpapers across diverse client types: flippers, portfolio holders, property managers, and construction firms

"For a firm whose value proposition is strategic clarity — where a single month of disorganized books could cost a real estate client a missed deal or a failed audit — under-resourcing the bookkeeping layer was simply not an option."


The Etisson Solution

Accruity came to Etisson with a resourcing challenge that went beyond just cost. The firm needed professionals who could handle real estate accounting multi-entity structures, construction draw reconciliations, property-level reporting without requiring months of onboarding or supervision.

Etisson provided dedicated offshore bookkeeping and accounting professionals at $2,000–$2,500 per month nearly two-thirds less than equivalent onshore talent without any compromise on accuracy or turnaround. The engagement started with a single dedicated resource and scaled as Accruity's client base grew, with Etisson's team operating fully within Accruity's existing workflows and tools.

With structured weekly update emails, a real-time client work tracker, and a review-and-close tool giving Accruity full visibility into every account's status, the firm gained the operational confidence to take on more clients and expand its advisory capacity.
