WE are proud to celebrate the National Small Business Week. In this blog post, we’re highlighting four small businesses we feel make a huge impact! STRATAFOLIO is always looking to partner with companies that can benefit our commercial real estate owners. As STRATAFOLIO partners, these businesses bring immense value to our commercial real estate customers, all in different but impactful ways. We invite you to learn more about them and contact them for more information.
Elm Street Accounting
Carrie Christino founded Elm Street Accounting when she recognized a need for accounting and bookkeeping services. She saw a need specifically for real estate professionals who use QuickBooks. She herself was doing accounting work for a real estate company with 55 entities. They used QuickBooks, Excel, and lots of manual labor to track escalations, create rent rolls, build investor reports, and much more. Now, Carrie and all of her real estate clients use STRATAFOLIO.
If you need an accountant who uses both QuickBooks and is well-versed in STRATAFOLIO, we invite you to reach out to Carrie!
IncentiFind
They help developers, property owners, and tenants find money for their real estate and home improvement projects. IncentiFind has discovered over $70 Billion in available incentives, many of which commercial real estate owners and developers do not even realize are available!
IncentiFind can help you take advantage of tax credits, grants, fee waivers, rebates, bill credits and more for new construction and existing buildings. From smart building tech and PACE-eligible areas to water conservation and EV charge stations, there are countless incentives available to help commercial real estate owners save money. Reach out to IncentiFind now to learn more and see what you can save.
Otso.io
Otso provides a modern option for landlords to replace cash deposits in commercial leases so businesses can better use the funds. Keep in mind that Otso allows tenants to keep their money (and put it to much better use!) in exchange for a small deposit waiver fee included in their monthly rent, rather than requiring a tenant to provide a cash security deposit or a letter of credit. Otso then writes a policy to the Landlord which they can use as collateral for good monthly rent payments.
You can learn more about Otso on their website at otso.io.
StackSource
They are a commercial mortgage company that provides transparent, efficient access to the capital markets for commercial real estate investors to source their ideal capital stack. StackSource makes it easier for commercial real estate owners to find the correct financing in three easy steps. First, submit a financing request to see the program details for your potential debt and equity sources. Second, the StackSource team will contact you to further optimize your package. Lastly, you’ll gain access to their dashboard, which tracks your offers and lets you compare terms. Your capital advisor will help you negotiate terms and the rest is history!
Contact StackSource today to get started.
STRATAFOLIO, too, is a small business founded by two individuals who saw the need for a total commercial property management solution. Contact us today for a demo to see how our small business can help yours!
