Many real estate investors live deal to deal without realizing it. They generate plenty of revenue, but never build lasting financial security.That is not financial freedom. It is a stressful cycle that keeps the business in crisis mode.

Most people think the problem is: I need more deals/sales/revenue. But that’s usually not the problem. Making money and keeping money are two different things. Most business owners are great at the first one. Few are good at the second.

Most business owners don’t have a profit problem. They have a timing problem. Specifically they’re waiting for the “right time,” until there’s “more money," things “calm down," or they can “afford help.” And their business is quietly bleeding.

David Richter changed our business, and my life. David came in in a very low time, cleaned our books up, taught me how to start planning like a business owner and stop flying by the seat of my pants, and then taught us how to implement Profit First. And it was amazing. He helped me gain control of our numbers, and get in control of our business. And I grateful for what he did for us.

I've been using Simple CFO for 4 or 5 years now. We buy about 100 off-market properties a year and then do another 30 to 50 traditional listings. They helped me understand what I should be looking at from a financial perspective, and track the right numbers for me to be able to operate my business as a CEO. I get a really nice dashboard to know the health of my company that we review with my CFO every month. I couldn't imagine running the business without them honestly anymore.

David and the team at Simple CFO Solutions have made a big impact on our real estate investing business (flipping, wholesaling, and buy & holds). They put in new systems, trained our bookkeeper on them, transitioned us to QuickBooks, and for the first time made us accountable for our finances. The team handled our complex and unique situations with ease, and were extremely accessible and responsive. I would highly recommend them to any real estate investor looking to get a better handle on their financials.
