We are extremely serious about accounting issues.
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 rental property owner has the tools and paperwork to know exactly where is income is going to and coming from. To accomplish this duty we employ one of the most powerful software tools in the management business: Rent Manager.
It is our practice 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 rent received as well as any expenses which we have paid on the landlord's behalf. The monthly statement is also available online. The statement will show what reserves we are holding on behalf of the rental investor.
There is no additional charge for the reports or the accounting. Not to mention, Nesbitt Realty never marks up 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 report. In January we mail the property owners, and to the IRS, a 1099 stating the income for the rental. Use the 1099 to prepare your taxes or simply give 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.
