Edgar Camacho
Controller

Edgar Camacho joined Laughton Properties in July 2015. He holds a CPA degree from Central University, Santa Fe de Bogota, Columbia. Those educational credentials, coupled with his long-time work in accounting, tax accounting and management with a number of firms provides the background for success in managing our accounting team.
Financial management is a key component of Laughton Properties’ services. Monthly client reports provide straightforward and accurate financial information for the owner. Edgar provides this information for both the client and management team. He is the backbone of the accounting department.
Reports are one thing, but bringing the financial pieces together accurately each month is a tremendous undertaking. Each site’s income and expenses must be translated into useable reports. Over the years, Laughton Properties has used various accounting software programs, including YARDI, in addition to programs specifically designed for this business. However, Laughton Properties found AMSI to be a superior product for all needs, AMSI, a cutting edge accounting software package designed for property management. Edgar led the organization to upgrade our accounting systems and software in 2017.
In addition to the month-to-month reports and a dedication to excellence, there is often a forgotten burden that comes at the end of the year taxes. As Finance Manager, Edgar also works with our clients’ tax accountants whenever needed throughout the year. It is because of this association and the thoroughness with which he operates that clients have reported a decrease in costs associated with their partnership tax reporting.
While others in the organization are seeing to it that our clients’ properties are at their peek occupancy and remain in excellent physical condition, Edgar is the Finance Manager overseeing the success of our entire accounting operation. His contributions round out the Laughton Properties’ team – your guarantee that your investment will function to its full potential.
