About

You Don't Have to Run the Numbers Alone

Hi, I’m Tracey. I started Bricks & Quarters for business owners who were growing fast but falling behind on the numbers. Bookkeeping support was not enough, and a full-time CFO was not realistic. What was missing was steady, strategic financial leadership, especially for firms managing client funds, real estate assets, or strict compliance requirements. My focus is simple: reliable numbers, clear reporting, and steady guidance so you can make decisions with control.

What We Do

Financial Leadership That Fits Your Stage of Growth

We build the financial systems that keep growing businesses steady, including a dependable close, leadership-ready reporting, cash visibility, and controls that hold up as complexity increases.

Make Confident Decisions, Faster

You do not need more spreadsheets. You need a finance partner who can pressure-test decisions, flag risk early, and translate performance into clear priorities. We bring CFO-level leadership that helps you stay aligned, act decisively, and avoid the costly “we will figure it out later” moments.

Stay Current Without Headcount

Your month-end close should be predictable, not a recurring fire drill. We keep the accounting work consistent, the records clean, and the financials ready, so you always know where things stand and leadership is not making decisions off outdated numbers.

Plan Ahead With Confidence

When cash visibility is clear, decisions get easier. We build forecasting and scenario planning that shows what is coming next, so you can evaluate options, adjust early, and move forward without last-minute surprises.

Bring Order to Complex Portfolios

If your business includes multiple entities, properties, or client funds, financial structure is non-negotiable. We help you put disciplined reporting and controls in place, so accountability is clear, compliance holds up under scrutiny, and you can see performance at the level that actually drives decisions.

We keep the process straightforward. First we get your numbers reliable, then we build visibility, and then we stay involved so you can lead with clarity as complexity grows.

Get the Full Picture

We review your current financials, reporting, and workflows to understand what’s working, what’s missing, and what needs immediate attention.

Stabilize the Close and Clean Up the Books

We establish a dependable month-end close, fix reporting gaps, and create clean, decision-ready financials you can trust.

Build Reporting and Cash Visibility

We implement leadership-ready reporting, KPI visibility, and forecasting so you can see performance clearly and plan ahead with confidence.

Create Controls That Hold Up as You Grow

As your business adds complexity, we help strengthen controls, documentation, and accountability, especially across multiple entities, properties, or client funds.

Signals You’re Ready for CFO-Level Support

When the Numbers Need Leadership, Not Just Tracking

These are the signs a growing business has outgrown basic bookkeeping and needs more structure, visibility, and decision support.

Month-End Is a Fire Drill

Close runs late, numbers change after the fact, and reporting never feels final.

Decisions Outpace Visibility

Leadership is moving fast, but the numbers arrive too late to guide real choices.

Cash Feels Unclear

Revenue is strong, but cash still surprises you. Forecasting is missing or unreliable.

Complexity Is Catching Up

Multiple entities, properties, or accounts make it hard to see performance clearly.

Stakeholders Need Confidence

Lenders, partners, or investors expect tighter reporting and clearer explanations.

Controls Need an Owner

Approvals, documentation, and accountability are not keeping pace with growth.

Fractional CFO Services and Monthly Accounting FAQs

Get clear answers about fractional CFO services, monthly accounting, cash flow forecasting, financial reporting, and controls, including who Bricks & Quarters works with and what to expect when you start.

What is a fractional CFO and what do they do?

A fractional CFO provides part-time CFO leadership, including strategy, forecasting, and decision support, without a full-time hire.

What is a fractional controller?

A fractional controller is a part-time finance leader who oversees the day-to-day accounting function. Their job is to keep the books accurate, manage reconciliations, enforce consistent processes, and deliver a dependable month-end close with clean financial statements. If your numbers are late, messy, or inconsistent, a fractional controller is often the right first step.

What does a fractional CFO cost?

Costs vary by scope and complexity. Most engagements are monthly and scaled to the level of support your business needs.

Should I hire a fractional controller or a fractional CFO?

Hire a fractional controller when you need the accounting foundation to be reliable, including a consistent close, clean reconciliations, and dependable reporting. Hire a fractional CFO when you need leadership-level guidance, planning, cash forecasting, and decision support. Many growing businesses benefit from both, starting with controller oversight to stabilize the numbers, then adding CFO guidance to plan and lead with confidence.

Do you offer monthly accounting services in addition to fractional CFO support?

Yes. Bricks & Quarters provides monthly accounting support and a consistent month-end close, plus CFO-level guidance.

What is included in monthly accounting services?

Monthly accounting typically includes bookkeeping oversight, reconciliations, a consistent month-end close, and reporting that stays current and reliable.

How long does month-end close take?

Timing depends on your current setup. The goal is a predictable close cadence that supports decision-ready reporting each month.

Do you provide cash flow forecasting and scenario planning?

Yes. We build cash flow forecasts and scenarios so you can plan ahead, reduce surprises, and make decisions earlier.

Can you help improve financial reporting and KPI visibility?

Yes. We create leadership-ready reporting and KPI visibility so performance is clear and decisions are based on current numbers.

When should we bring in outside financial leadership?

The moment your business reaches $5M in revenue or your financial complexity outpaces your current team's capacity. Growth creates blind spots. A fractional CFO steps in before those gaps become costly mistakes, giving you the perspective and structure you need to scale without stumbling.

Do you help with financial controls and compliance?

Yes. We strengthen controls, documentation, and accountability, especially where compliance or client-fund handling matters.

Do you work with real estate firms and property managers?

Yes. We support real estate firms and property managers, including multi-entity and portfolio reporting and stronger financial controls.

Do you work with legal practices that manage client funds?

Yes. We support legal practices where accuracy, controls, and client-fund accountability are critical.

Do you only work with businesses over $5M in annual revenue?

Most clients are $5M+ in annual revenue. We may take on select clients below $5M when complexity is similar.

Do you replace our CPA or tax preparer?

No. We do not provide tax preparation. We can work alongside your CPA and help keep financials clean and reporting consistent.

Can you work with our existing bookkeeper or internal team?

Yes. Many clients keep their bookkeeper or internal staff, and we provide structure, oversight, and CFO-level guidance.

What does onboarding look like for fractional CFO and accounting services?

We review your current financials and workflows, stabilize the close, improve reporting, and build forecasting and controls based on your needs.
