Property management bookkeeping questions, answered
Do you work in AppFolio and Buildium?
Yes. We keep the books inside AppFolio or Buildium rather than exporting them somewhere else, and work alongside Rent Manager and QuickBooks where a portfolio uses them.
Do you prepare owner statements?
Yes. Owner statements are prepared from a ledger we have reconciled, so they tie out, and owner draws are recorded as they happen.
How do you handle trust accounts and security deposits?
Trust and operating accounts are kept apart and reconciled every month, and tenant security deposits are tracked where they belong rather than mixed into operating cash.
Our books are behind. Can you catch them up?
Yes. Catch-up and cleanup are a normal first chapter: we reconcile the history that matters, then put a monthly close in place. Cleanup is quoted separately, up front.
How much does property management bookkeeping cost?
There is no package price. A flat monthly rate is scoped to your transaction volume, the number of entities and accounts, and the starting condition of your books. The free health check produces that number, with any cleanup quoted separately and up front.
Is my data safe with you?
Yes. We use 256-bit encryption and multi-factor authentication, and access is limited to the people working on your account.
Ready to hand over your property books?
A short call about your portfolio and your software, and a flat monthly number for keeping the books current. If we are not the right fit, we will say so.
