The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) frequently offers new recommended standards to the industry. The organization dictates a lot of what commercial real estate professionals have to do on a daily basis. Not knowing about these updates or rules can bring you out of compliance and negatively affect your portfolio health (and bottom line). Also, staying informed can give you an edge over your competition.
Here is a series of the latest FASB-related articles, what each means for the CRE industry and how the right commercial real estate software can help you address them.
