Investors who self manage still struggle to keep track of all their rental records. This is extremely important for those investors who have LLC or are incorporated (which require adequate record keeping). Our system which utilizes a web based system will provide you all the reporting for your records as well as tenant statement. In addition, you will be able to log in and record rent collection if rents are paid to you. We can assist you by reconciling business bank accounts, providing the system, and also assisting with other record keeping (invoices and checks). If you pay for items with personal credit cards, etc, then you would provide us with those records and we can then do the appropriate bookkeeping to capture all those transactions.
