Capital calls, construction draws and land closings that reach the right account.

Real Estate Developers IT Services

A real estate developer moves large sums on predictable schedules, from investor capital calls to monthly construction draws and land closings, and a single spoofed wire instruction can sink a project's budget.

At a glance

Your firm runs on many project LLCs with their own bank accounts, an investor portal like Juniper Square, development management in Northspyre or Procore, accounting in Yardi or Sage Intacct, Argus models, and drawings flowing in from architects and engineers.

We protect that flow: verified payment procedures for capital calls and draws, MFA on investor and banking portals, controlled sharing of underwriting and design files, and IT that small development teams don't have to babysit. We support real estate developers in Texas and nationwide.

IT that keeps capital calls clean, draws funded, projects on schedule.

Investor capital, lender draws, land closings and design files protected from entitlement through stabilization.

Real estate developers

Big wires, small teams, many entities

Development firms run lean. A handful of people manage acquisitions, entitlements, design, financing, construction and investor relations across several projects, each its own entity with its own accounts. That means huge sums move through a few inboxes, and attackers only need to fool one person at the right moment.

01 · The pressure

A capital call, a draw and a land closing this month

Investors fund capital calls through your portal. Each month the GC's pay app becomes a draw request to the lender, with inspector sign-off and lien waivers. Land acquisitions close through title. Your controller juggles several project entities in Yardi or Sage Intacct, the development team tracks budgets in Northspyre, and architects push revised drawings weekly. If one wire goes astray, the project faces a funding gap that's very hard to explain to investors and lenders.

  • Capital calls funded by outside investors
  • Monthly draws tied to lender and inspector sign-off
  • Several project entities with separate bank accounts

02 · How it breaks

Spoofed capital calls and rewritten draw instructions

Investors receive a convincing email, styled like yours, saying the capital call wire details changed. A hijacked GC or title mailbox swaps payment instructions right before a draw or closing. Your investor portal accounts use weak passwords and no MFA. Underwriting models and investor lists sit in personal Dropbox folders. And with so many entities, banking portal logins get shared around the office because nobody wants to wait on the one person with the token.

  • Investors sent fake capital call wire details
  • GC and title mailboxes hijacked before payment
  • Shared banking portal logins across entities

03 · What we change

Verified money movement and controlled deal files

We put MFA on email, the investor portal, accounting and every bank portal, with individual users instead of shared logins. Capital call notices state that wire instructions never change by email, and investors confirm through the portal or by phone. Draw and closing payments get a call-back on a known number. DMARC protects your domain. Underwriting, investor and design files move to managed storage with expiring external links and logging.

  • Individual MFA logins on every bank portal
  • Capital call notices with built-in verification
  • Expiring links for underwriting and design files

04 · The after

Investors and lenders see a disciplined sponsor

Capital calls fund without anxious phone calls about suspicious emails. Draws and closings go out after verification, every time. Investor lists and models stay in company storage rather than personal accounts. When an institutional LP or lender runs diligence and asks how you protect wires and investor data, your controller answers in an afternoon. And a lean team spends its time on projects, not on cleaning up after a fraud attempt.

  • Capital calls fund without fraud scares
  • Draws and closings verified every time
  • Faster answers to LP and lender diligence

What We Offer

Comprehensive solutions tailored for Houston-area businesses

Capital Call and Investor Payment Protection

We protect the mailboxes and portal used for investor communication, publish DMARC for your domain, and help you add a standing statement to every capital call that wire instructions never change by email. Investors get a clear verification path through the portal or a known phone number before they send funds.

Draw and Closing Verification

Construction draws, GC payments and land closings follow a written verification procedure: any change to payee banking is confirmed by phone with a known contact, and large wires get dual approval. We set up the technical controls and train your controller and project managers on the impersonation tactics aimed at developers.

Investor Portal and Banking Access

We manage users and MFA on Juniper Square or your investor portal, and work with your banks to move every entity's portal to individual logins with tokens or app-based MFA. Shared logins go away, and access is removed promptly when staff or consultants roll off a project.

Multi-Entity Accounting Support

We support Yardi, Sage Intacct and other accounting platforms across many project entities: user roles, MFA, integrations with banking and AP tools, and backups. Permissions follow your entity structure so a project accountant sees the projects they work on, not the whole portfolio's financials or the sponsor entity's books.

Deal and Design File Control

Argus models, investor lists, purchase agreements and architectural drawings move to SharePoint or another managed platform with version history. External sharing with lenders, consultants and architects uses expiring links and logging, and nothing important lives in a personal Dropbox account that leaves when an employee does.

Lean-Team IT Operations

Development teams are small and busy. We handle laptops, phones, Microsoft 365, printers and site office connectivity, with a help desk during business hours. Project site trailers get managed internet on their own network, and we take care of onboarding and offboarding for staff and outside consultants.

Why Choose LayerLogix?

Serving businesses throughout the Greater Houston area including Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Atlanta, Nationwide.

Funding Gaps Avoided

Verified capital call, draw and closing procedures keep large wires from going to criminals. That protects project budgets and spares you the uncomfortable conversations with investors and lenders that follow a misdirected payment in the middle of construction.

Investor Confidence

Investors notice when a sponsor builds verification into every capital call and protects their personal and banking data. It's a small detail in each notice that signals discipline across your whole operation, long before the next raise.

Diligence Without the Scramble

Institutional LPs and lenders increasingly ask sponsors about cybersecurity. Documented controls over wires, investor data and file sharing give your team accurate answers quickly, so diligence doesn't stall on IT questions while a closing date approaches.

IT the Team Doesn't Manage

Your developers and controllers should spend their time on deals and projects. We handle devices, accounts, site connectivity and security, so nobody on a lean team ends up as the accidental IT person between closings.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does capital call fraud work?▼
An attacker learns that a capital call is coming, often by compromising a mailbox at your firm, an investor or an adviser, or simply by watching for your notices. They send investors a message that looks like yours with new wire instructions, sometimes from a lookalike domain. Investors who wire without verifying send money to the criminal. Protecting your domain with DMARC, putting a clear verification statement in every notice and directing investors to confirm through the portal or a known phone number shuts most of this down.
What controls should we have on construction draws?▼
A written procedure that everyone follows. Any change to GC, subcontractor or title banking information gets confirmed by phone with a known contact, not the one in the email. Large wires need two approvers. The mailboxes that receive pay apps and draw packages have MFA and impersonation filtering. We set up the technical pieces and walk through the procedure with your controller and project managers, so the habit holds even when a draw is late and everyone is rushing.
We have a dozen project entities. How do we manage bank portal access?▼
Give every user their own login with MFA at every bank, and stop sharing a token or password across the office. Most commercial banking portals support individual users with their own approval limits. We work with your controller to set that up, document who has what authority in each entity, and remove access promptly when people leave or projects close. That also gives you a clean audit trail when lenders or auditors ask who initiated and approved a wire.
How should we share Argus models and investor lists?▼
From managed storage with controls, not as email attachments or personal Dropbox links. We set up SharePoint or your preferred platform so internal users have access by role and external parties such as lenders, partners and consultants get expiring, logged links. Investor lists deserve special care because they include personal and financial information. When someone leaves, their access ends, and the files stay with the firm rather than in an account you can't reach.
Do you support the investor portal and development software?▼
We support the IT side of Juniper Square, Northspyre, Procore and similar tools: user provisioning, MFA, SSO where available and integrations with accounting. The vendors still support their product features. We make sure the right people have access, former staff and consultants are removed promptly, and data exports exist where they need to. For investor portals specifically, we review who can change distribution and payment details, since that's where fraud risk concentrates.
Can you set up IT for project site offices?▼
Yes. Construction and sales offices on a project site get a managed firewall, cellular or fixed wireless internet, Wi-Fi and printers on their own network, connected back to company systems securely. We monitor them and handle setup and teardown as projects start and finish. Hands-on work happens locally near our offices or through a vetted local technician directed by our engineer, which works well for developers with projects in several markets.
Do you provide Real Estate Developers IT Services in Houston and nearby areas?▼
Yes. LayerLogix is based in the Greater Houston area and delivers real estate developers IT services to businesses across Houston and the surrounding communities, including The Woodlands, Spring, Katy, Sugar Land, Conroe, Cypress, and Pearland.

Call 713-571-2390 to check coverage for your specific address.
What does Real Estate Developers IT Services cost for a Houston business?▼
Pricing depends on your size and what you need, so we do not publish a one-size-fits-all number — but Houston businesses generally pay a flat, predictable monthly fee rather than surprise hourly bills. We start with a free, no-obligation assessment of your current setup, then give you a clear quote in plain English with no hidden costs. That way you know exactly what you are getting and what it costs before you commit.
