Georgia & Florida · Builders, Flippers & Small Developers
Your books,
handled.
Flat-rate monthly bookkeeping for builders, flippers, and small real estate developers. Every job costed, every draw tracked — so you know what each project actually made.
The process
Simple from day one.
Connect your accounts
You fill out a short intake form and add me as an accountant user in your QuickBooks. Then you share read-only access to your bank accounts — no installs, no setup on your end.
I handle your books
Every month I categorize transactions, code costs to their jobs, reconcile accounts and loan draws, and close your books. If something looks off, you hear about it — not at tax time, now.
You get a clear picture
By the 5th, your books are closed and your dashboard updates with your overall P&L, per-project numbers, and cash position. You know exactly where every job stands before you commit to the next one.
What's included
Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.
One flat monthly rate covers all of this. No hourly billing, no add-on fees, no surprises. Just clean books and clear numbers — delivered on time, every month.
Monthly Bookkeeping
Every transaction categorized and reconciled — bank accounts, credit cards, all of it. Done before the 5th so you always know where you stand.
Job Costing & Per-Project P&L
Every cost coded to the job it belongs to — materials, subs, permits, carry costs. You see what each project actually made, not just a blended bank balance.
Draw & Loan Tracking
Construction loans, draw schedules, and interest reconciled every month — so your books match what the bank has actually funded, down to the dollar.
Subcontractor & 1099 Tracking
W-9s collected, sub payments tracked all year, and 1099s ready in January instead of a scramble. Your subs get paid right and the IRS stays happy.
QuickBooks Setup & Cleanup
A chart of accounts built for construction and flips — not a generic template. Starting fresh or untangling years of messy data, done right the first time.
Year-End Tax Prep
Hand your CPA a clean, organized file at year-end instead of a shoebox. Books structured for your entity from day one — LLC, partnership, or S-corp.

Why Sailfish
Bookkeeping that
actually feels easy.
Most bookkeepers treat a flip like a coffee shop — one lump P&L where your projects disappear. Sailfish is built entirely for builders, flippers, and small developers in Georgia and Florida.
You get fast turnaround, honest flat pricing, and the founder answering your emails the same day. No jargon, no runaround.
Get startedFlat, affordable pricing
One monthly rate, no surprises. You know exactly what bookkeeping costs before we ever start — and it's priced for small businesses, not corporations.
Books by the 5th, every month
Your prior month is closed, reconciled, and in your inbox by the 5th. No chasing, no waiting. You can actually plan around it.
You talk to me directly
No account managers, no ticketing systems, no being passed around. You have my direct line, and questions get answered the same day.
Built for project money
Generic bookkeepers blend everything into one P&L. I code every dollar to its job — so lot purchases, draws, subs, and carry costs land where they belong.
Who you're working with
One bookkeeper.
Your name on every file.
I'm Ford Fox, the founder of Sailfish Financial. When you sign on, I do your books — not an offshore team, not a rotating roster of juniors. You get my direct email, and you get answers the same day.
I built Sailfish's bookkeeping systems myself — automated imports, reconciliation checks, and reporting that most solo bookkeepers do by hand. That's why I can close your books by the 5th, every month, at a flat rate: the busywork is automated, so my time goes to the judgment calls that actually protect your numbers.
I work with builders, flippers, and small developers in Georgia and Florida. If you want to know what each project actually made — not just what your bank balance says — that's exactly what I do.
