We are extremely conscientious regarding accounting details.
As rental managers it is our duty to account for every penny of rent and each expense. Our staff work hard to ensure that each rental investor has the documentation to know exactly where is money is going to and coming from. To accomplish this duty we use one of the most powerful software tools in the management business: Rent Manager.
We strive to process and deposit rents on the same day they are received. Funds are deposited into an escrow account (not into our operating account). We prepare a monthly statement that shows the rental income as well as any expenses which we have paid on the rental property owner's behalf. The monthly statement is also available online. The monthly report will describe what funds we are holding on behalf of the rental investor.
There is no additional charge for the reports or the accounting. Also, Nesbitt Realty never pads the price on the repairs, nor do we charge a fee per repair. At the end of the year, we compile the monthly reports into a year-end statement. In January we send to the rental investors, and to the IRS, a 1099 stating the income for the rental. 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.
