I am also leaning towards GC'ing it myself, so I'm using an architect to draw up plans, and I'm looking for subs.

I'm in the market for entity config and tax planning/prep.

We started construction in February 2025 and are planning to start leasing up in Spring of 2026." 

It would be good to talk to a lender to make a game plan and review your financials. 

I don't think Im paying my bookeepeer an outrageous amount, although with economies of scale (I have one commercial insurance plan, commerical portfolio loan from a single bank, one bank account, etc) it probably doesn't take the Bookeeper 3x to do my books compared to yours. 

Also, set clear expectations with tenants upfront so they know how to handle issues like maintenance requests.How do you plan on finding all your contractors?

@Jacob HavlovickBigger Pockets is a great place to find a real estate tax accountant.A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

Then try to figure out if its best to have their funds go to a CRT or if we as a nonprofit can create a 403(b) plan for the investors.

The best thing you can do is plan that the first year will be on the lean side.

Some other factors to consider - How long are you planning to hold this property?
