    From Chaos to Control: Implementing Effective Financial Habits for Real Estate Growth

    Proper internal controls and regular processes are essential components for maintaining accurate financial records and implementing an effective tax strategy.

Chris emphasizes the significance of having processes, procedures, checks, and balances, particularly focusing on internal controls. Drawing from his experience in the audit field, Chris highlights the relevance of internal controls for both big and small businesses, stressing their necessity for maintaining financial health and security.
