We are very meticulous with accounting details.
As property managers it is our duty to account for every penny of rent and each expense. All of us work diligently to ensure that every real estate investor has the documentation to know exactly where is income is going to and coming from. To accomplish this task we use one of the most powerful software tools in our profession: Rent Manager.
We usually process and deposit rents on the same day they are received. Rents are deposited into an escrow account (not into our operating account). We prepare a monthly statement that shows the rent received as well as any expenses that we have paid on the rental property owner's behalf. The monthly statement is also available electronically. The monthly statement will describe what reserves we are holding on behalf of the rental investor.
There is no additional charge for the reports or the accounting. And, Nesbitt Realty never pads the price on the repairs, nor do we charge a fee per repair. At the end of the year, we organize the monthly reports into a year-end report. In January we mail the property owners, and to the IRS, a 1099 stating the income for the rental property. Use the 1099 to prepare your taxes or simply hand the 1099 to your tax preparer.

Your investment in real estate is a business like any other. As a landlord, you have expenses, income and with perseverance, you also have the expectation of financial reward.
In the business of real estate investment, nearly all cashflow comes from tenants. And that's the catch: If you have tenants, you will have problems. Even the best of tenants have needs and all properties will require maintenance or management at some point. A property management company takes all the hassle out of rental management.
