Accounting Services

Accurate and timely financial reporting and control are essential to efficient building operations. HHS&G’s accounting staff offers world class accounting services including: budgeting, close monitoring and control of accounts payable and receivable, thorough bank reconciliations, and detailed financial and operational reporting. Our property managers work hand-in-hand with our accounting staff to produce annual budgets for each building.

Receivership Services

The short-term nature of receivership management differs dramatically from traditional investment property management procedures. Under “normal” circumstances, the property manager works closely with owners’ specific goals and objectives. In a receivership situation, the operational decisions are based on short-term priorities, which are set by the receiver using his or her experience and expertise. The receiver’s assignment is to protect the property’s value on behalf of the court while preparing for the possible sale, foreclosure, or redemption of the property in the near future.

Quite often, the property manager will receive only a few days notice before assuming management of a property. HHS&G has the internal experience and systems to be up and running at a moment’s notice.

24/7 Emergency Services

Our 24 hour on call service assures immediate response to all emergency situations. As property managers we have a great deal of experience in handling many types of emergencies from fire, flood, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, structural and security. We are adept at quickly assessing the situation and managing the resources to control and mitigate the crisis.
