MEET THE FOUNDER & CEO

Hey, I'm Jake Baker!

Welcome to BookkeepingRE, where financial expertise meets real-world real estate experience. After starting my career in aerospace engineering, I transitioned to full-time in real estate.

As I grew my real estate flipping business—having flipped many properties, most out of state and most without ever physically visiting them—I gained a thorough understanding of the financial complexities in the industry. However, throughout this journey, I consistently encountered frustrations with bookkeeping solutions. None of them fully understood real estate, and many bookkeepers lacked the necessary industry knowledge. Often, firms outsource bookkeeping overseas to cut costs, leading to issues with time zone differences, insufficient training, and a sacrifice in quality.

I set out to change this by building a company based on real estate expertise, with all in-house bookkeepers located in the U.S. Our team is accessible and trained specifically in the nuances of real estate investing.

Today, I own a diverse portfolio of rental properties across the U.S., including short-, mid-, and long-term rentals and co-living rentals, primarily acquired through the BRRRR method. My experience in wholesaling, creative financing, and out-of-state investing gives me a well-rounded understanding of real estate. At BookkeepingRE, I leverage this expertise to provide actionable insights that enhance our bookkeeping services, helping clients build efficient systems and manage their businesses remotely with expert, tailored support.
