When someone looks for a qualified contractor, the
first thing they look for is experience. No one
wants to be the roofing, electrical or masonry
contractor's first customer, and for good reason.
There are certain things you can only learn to do
well by doing them over and over again - through
experience. This is true of the construction
industry, and it is also true of the people who
serve the construction industry.
The construction industry has its own body of law,
its own special insurance needs, its own financial
considerations, its own IRS code sections, and its
own accounting methods. In order to deal with these
special needs, contractors need attorneys, insurance
professionals, bankers, and CPAs who have experience
in dealing with contractors.
At Kentner Sellers, we have that experience!
Here's how we got and maintain that experience:
-
We serve over 80 contractors, developers, and suppliers to the construction industry.
-
Our construction clients range in employee size
from 2 to 175, and have revenues from $500,000 to
over $100 million.
-
Year in and year out, we spend
30% of
our time working with construction clients. -
We have served more than 20 different types of
contractors.
-
Kentner Sellers maintains a
group of five professional staff in its
Construction Services Group, which is dedicated
to keeping abreast of construction industry
issues. The Construction Services Group is led
by Marvin J. Homan and Jon Stangel.
-
Marvin Homan and Jon Stangel have received the
Certified Construction Industry Financial Professional
accreditation affiliated with the Construction
Financial Management Association (CCIFP/CFMA).
-
Kentner Sellers is recognized by bankers,
attorneys, bonding professionals and contractors as
CPAs who understand the construction industry.
-
Each year, a member of Kentner Sellers'
Construction Services Group attends one or more of
the major construction accounting conventions -
Construction Financial Management Association (CFMA),
the Associated General Contractors/CFMA joint
conference, or the AICPA National Construction
Industry conference.
Our knowledge of the accounting and tax
peculiarities of the construction industry comes
from many sources. From specialized education
classes and training to our involvement in ABC, CFMA,
HBA, and CICPAC (Construction Industry Consultants
and CPAs). But, by and far, the best knowledge we
can and have acquired is from our day to day
dealings with our clients.
