RLTYco and Nimbl Announce Strategic Partnership to Modernize Financial Infrastructure for Real Estate Professionals

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RLTYco, the essential one-stop shop for the modern 1099 real estate professional, and Nimbl, an integrated accounting, tax, and strategic finance firm built to support growth-minded businesses, today announced a novel partnership aimed at solving the systemic financial and operational challenges facing independent real estate professionals. The collaboration introduces a formalized business “operating system” designed to transition high-earning agents from reactive, annual filing to a proactive, year-round corporate structure.

As real estate professionals scale, the complexity of their financial operations often outpaces their existing administrative setup. This growth frequently leads to cash flow volatility and underpayment penalties. One of the key issues the partnership addresses is the “Schedule C Trap.” A reported 78% of solopreneurs remain under a Sole Proprietorship structure for convenience, often resulting in $6,000 to $30,000 in annual tax overpayments due to self-employment tax obligations.

“Most financial models were built for predictable income streams, which does not align with the reality of the real estate market,” said Briggs Elwell, CEO and Co-Founder of RLTYco. “This partnership allows agents to move away from reactive cycles and toward an intentional operating rhythm where financial obligations are managed systematically.”

The collaboration provides agents with access to Nimbl’s full suite of back-office and strategic finance services, moving beyond traditional tax preparation to include:

• Entity Optimization: Technical evaluation and execution of S-Corp transitions to optimize tax efficiency for high-earning professionals.
• Comprehensive Cloud Accounting: Professional bookkeeping and financial reporting to provide real-time visibility into business health.
• Strategic Advisory: Forward-looking financial modeling and cash flow forecasting to support long-term business scaling.
• Managed Technology & Infrastructure: Integrated IT support and cybersecurity protocols to protect sensitive client and financial data.
• Global Staffing Resources: Access to scalable team infrastructure for agents requiring administrative or operational support.
• Quarterly Compliance: Data-driven estimated tax planning to mitigate the risk of federal and state underpayment penalties.

“The ‘Schedule C Trap’ represents a fundamental disconnect between an agent's revenue growth and their operational maturity,” said Shane Rowley, President and Co-founder of Nimbl. “By integrating RLTYco’s industry-specific insights with our full stack of accounting, technology, and global infrastructure, we are helping agents move past the limitations of individual production. We are providing the institutional-grade framework necessary to transform a successful real estate practice into a durable, scalable enterprise.”
