Fractional Accounting Services
Executive-Level Accounting Support Without the Full-Time Overhead
Not every property management company needs a full-time Controller, Accounting Manager, or Trust Accounting specialist—but every company needs experienced financial leadership.
Northstar's Fractional Accounting Services provide access to the expertise, oversight, and strategic support of a seasoned accounting department without the expense of hiring multiple full-time employees.
Whether you're experiencing rapid growth, struggling with staffing challenges, preparing for an audit, implementing new processes, or simply need a higher level of financial oversight, our team can step in and provide the support your organization needs.
What Fractional Support Can Include
Because every company operates differently, our fractional services are customized to fit your specific needs.
Support may include:
Trust accounting oversight
Accounting department leadership
Month-end and year-end close management
Financial review and reporting
AppFolio accounting support

Whether you need a few hours per month or ongoing accounting leadership, Northstar can provide scalable support that grows alongside your business.
Designed for Property Management Companies
Unlike traditional fractional accounting firms, Northstar specializes exclusively in the property management industry.
We understand the complexities of trust accounting, owner accounting, HOA financials, compliance requirements, and property management software platforms. This allows us to provide practical guidance that aligns with the operational realities of your business—not generic accounting advice.
