Accounting for Estate Agents

Our accounting service helps estate agents stay compliant and grow their profits.

Running a busy estate agency means there are never enough hours in the day, so it makes sense to give yourself more time to focus on your business by outsourcing accounting to a reputable firm that understands your unique needs.

The property sector and the legislation that affects it moves quickly, so you need to be sure that the accountants supporting your business are experienced, on the ball and ultimately have your best interests at heart.

Our team has developed a wealth of experience and expertise in advising estate agency businesses – both single-site and large regional firms. With a focus on building a strong relationship with our clients, we really care about your business’s growth and efficiency.

ARLA audits

One of the services most commonly required by estate agents is an ARLA audit. If you are a principal, partner or director (PPD member) of any property company that holds client money, you must submit an accountant’s report showing that you comply with ARLA byelaw 3 within six months of an organisation’s financial year end.

This report must be completed and signed by a chartered or certified accountant who is a member of one of the supervisory bodies, as recognised by the Financial Reporting Council’s Professional Oversight Board for Accountancy.

Charnwood Accountants can complete the necessary ARLA compliance work and reporting, giving you peace of mind and allowing you to focus on your business.
