About

An accounting department for people who build things

GSD Accountants is a remote bookkeeping and accounting firm specializing in real estate investors and project-based operators, serving clients in all 50 states.

Meet David Semerdjian

David founded GSD Accountants after 17+ years of accounting work rooted in California real estate, construction, eCommerce, and recycling operations. Industries where the year-end total tells you nothing and the per-job number tells you everything.

The firm exists because generic bookkeeping fails operators in a specific, expensive way: rehab budgets expensed as repairs, entities blended into one P&L, draw requests rebuilt from scratch every time. GSD’s answer is discipline. Every transaction classed to a property or job, every account reconciled monthly, every close on a published deadline.

Today GSD runs on QuickBooks Online, Bill.com, and Gusto, with a remote delivery team and an automation stack that keeps human hours where they belong: on judgment, not data entry.

How we run the firm

  • Publish the price. Investors compare deals for a living. Hiding prices insults them.
  • Every dollar gets a home. Every transaction is classed to a property or job. No exceptions, no “miscellaneous.”
  • Deadlines are published. Accounts reconciled by the 10th, 7th, or 5th depending on tier, and books fully reviewed and cleaned up by the 15th. In the agreement, not implied.
  • Stay inside the boundary. We’re not a CPA firm. No tax prep, no tax positions, no legal interpretation. Your CPA gets tax-ready books and keeps the tax work, which is exactly why CPAs refer to us.

Where we work

Remote-first, serving clients in all 50 states. The work runs on QuickBooks Online, Bill.com, and Gusto, so your location never touches the quality or the schedule. Our roots are California real estate: the Central Valley, Kern County, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas are the markets we know deepest. Wherever your properties sit, the books get the same close on the same schedule.

Client words, not ours

“Our prior accounting team was having trouble servicing all of our needs. David quickly cleaned up our books for the current year while simultaneously building out the reports needed to make proper financial decisions.”
