Who We Are

At Mahoney, we have a passion for precision by going beyond completing the necessary tasks to deliver financial peace of mind. Our Real Estate Solutions Team supports clients across the affordable housing and commercial sectors by providing specialized guidance tailored to their unique regulatory requirements. Our expertise spans Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), Historic Tax Credits (HTC), and other complex real estate compliance needs. Through HUD audits, real estate taxation, tax planning, and ongoing tax management, we help clients navigate compliance complexities and achieve long-term financial stability.

Located just outside downtown St. Paul along the Mississippi River, Mahoney has been recognized multiple times by Accounting Today, the StarTribune, and the Twin Cities Business Magazine as a top workplace. Since 1989, we've provided comprehensive audit, tax, and consulting services for individuals, businesses, real estate developers, and nonprofit organizations.

What You'll Do

As a Manager, you will provide a strategic oversight and technical leadership by applying advanced tax rules and audit expertise to review and sign partnership tax returns, financial statements, and cost certifications. You also lead the preparation and review of LIHTC and HTC cost certifications and develop financial projects for real estate projects. Each deliverable reflects accuracy, strong documentation, and alignment with regulatory requirements and firm standards.

You bring deep proficiency in Microsoft Excel, using advanced tools (e.g. power queries, data modeling, advanced pivot tables, advanced formulas) to analyze elaborate property-level data, manage sophisticated tax and financial workpapers, and automate processes such as data entry, report generation, and real estate-specific data analysis. This mastery enhances the accuracy, efficiency, and consistency of your engagements while elevating staff performance. In your role, you will refine staff work, bolster financial foundations, improve the clarity and structure of workpapers, and equip team members to navigate high-level LIHTC, HTC, and real estate tax concepts with confidence.

You will conduct research on intricate issues and provide well-informed, practical solutions that help clients navigate evolving regulations and make confident decisions. Strong interpersonal and consulting skills allow you to deliver expert guidance on real estate projects, offering innovative strategies tailored to each client's goals.

Long-term client relationships are cultivated through consistent support at every stage of a project. From initial planning and pre-development through deal structuring and successful exit strategies, your expertise brings the client stress-free consulting. You will maintain consistent and effective communication across all organization levels, ensuring clear expectations, collaborative problem-solving, and a smooth engagement process for client and internal teams.

As a leader, you manage and develop staff by providing coaching, feedback, and direction that strengthens technical capabilities and fosters a dynamic, high-performing team environment. This leadership sustains quality, enhances efficiency, and supports the continued growth of the firm's real estate tax practice.
