You’ve got QuickBooks.
You’ve got rental properties.
And you need to track income, expenses, and tenants without losing your mind.
Here’s the challenge: unlike dedicated property accounting software, QuickBooks wasn’t built for rental property accounting. There’s no “property” field. No “tenant” field. No button that says “set up for landlords.”
But it can work—with the right workarounds.
Below, we’ll walk you through the complete setup process. By the end, you’ll have QuickBooks configured to track your rental properties properly.
And while not ideal (more on that later), you’ll be set up to make it work.
Key Takeaways
- QuickBooks requires workarounds for property management—properties become “customers” and tenants become “sub-customers”
- Class tracking (requires Plus or Advanced) enables property-by-property financial reporting but adds $50-90 monthly
- Chart of accounts must be manually configured to match Schedule E categories for proper tax reporting
- Setting up 8 steps takes 3-5 hours initially but establishes foundation for ongoing tracking
- Specialized property management software eliminates all workarounds and includes features QuickBooks lacks
Can You Use QuickBooks for Property Management?
Short answer: Yes, with significant workarounds.
QuickBooks is powerful general business accounting software. Coffee shops use it. Consultants use it. Contractors use it.
But it’s NOT designed for rental properties.
The software lacks key landlord-specific features. No native property fields. No tenant tracking. No unit-level reporting. No built-in rent collection. No maintenance management.
You make it work by adapting existing features creatively.
Who QuickBooks Works For
Let me be specific about when QuickBooks makes sense.
Good fit:
Small landlords with 1-5 properties who self-manage. People already using QuickBooks for other businesses. Landlords whose accountants require QuickBooks. Investors comfortable with manual configuration and ongoing maintenance.
Poor fit:
Property management companies (you need trust accounting that QuickBooks handles poorly). Landlords managing 20+ properties (the workarounds become overwhelming). Those wanting integrated rent collection or tenant portals. People needing maintenance request tracking. Managers who value simplicity over power.
What QuickBooks is Missing for Property Management
![How to Set Up QuickBooks for Property Management: Complete Step-by-Step Guide [Updated for 2026] QUICKBOOKS FOR PROPERTY MANAGEMENT](https://mochaaccounting.com/blogs/uploads/2026/01/QUICKBOOKS.png)
Before we dive into the how, it’s important to understand why QuickBooks isn’t great for property management accounting (i.e. what it’s missing).
This will make it easier to manage those gaps and make QuickBooks workable.
To start: No native property or tenant fields. No unit-level tracking for multifamily buildings.
No built-in rent collection system. No tenant portals for online payments or maintenance requests. No maintenance tracking or work order management.
There’s also no:
- Lease tracking or renewal reminders
- Security deposit accounting (requires manual liability setup)
- Automated late fee calculation)
Plus, you’re missing landlord-specific reports like rent rolls.
The reality? You’re adapting business software for a specialized use case.
Choosing the Right QuickBooks Version
Not all QuickBooks versions work for property management.
This matters. A lot.
QuickBooks Online vs QuickBooks Desktop
Two platforms exist with different trade-offs.
QuickBooks Online:
Cloud-based so you can access it anywhere. Automatic updates and backups. Subscription pricing from $30-200/month. Better for collaboration with accountants. Mobile apps included. Integrates with more third-party apps.
QuickBooks Desktop:
One-time purchase (higher upfront cost). More powerful reporting tools. Local data storage (you control it). Faster performance with large datasets. Requires Windows (or Mac version). Better for extremely complex accounting.
My recommendation: Most landlords choose Online for convenience.
QuickBooks Online Version Comparison
Here’s where version choice becomes critical.
Simple Start ($30/month):
Basic income and expense tracking. Up to 1 user. NO class tracking—this is a deal-breaker for rental properties. You cannot track finances by property without classes. Not suitable for rentals.
Essentials ($60/month):
Bill management added. Up to 3 users. Still NO class tracking. Still not suitable for rental properties despite the higher price.
Plus ($90/month):
Class tracking ENABLED—this is essential. Up to 5 users. Project profitability tools. This is the MINIMUM version for rental properties. Without class tracking, you cannot generate property-by-property reports.
Advanced ($200/month):
Up to 25 users. Advanced reporting and custom report building. Custom roles and permissions. Priority support. Best for property management companies with staff.
Bottom line: You need Plus at minimum. That’s $90/month for class tracking capability.
QuickBooks has been around for over 40 years. It’s mature, powerful, and trusted. But for rental properties, you’re paying $90/month minimum just to get the features (class tracking) that specialized software includes at $15-50/month.
Understanding the Workarounds
QuickBooks doesn’t speak “landlord.”
So, let’s translate.
We highly recommend not going the distance with QuickBooks, and reserving it for (at most) a starter software with your first property or two.
However, if you’re already invested for whatever reason, here are the workarounds you’re going to need to get this started.
The Core Workaround Strategy
Here’s how you adapt QuickBooks for rental properties.
- Properties = Customers (in the Sales/Customer section). You’ll create a customer for each property using the property address as the customer name.
- Tenants = Sub-Customers (under each property customer). Each tenant is a sub-customer linked to their property.
- Properties = Classes (for reporting). You’ll create a class for each property to enable property-by-property profit and loss reports.
- Income types = Products/Services (rent, late fees, pet fees). These go on invoices to tenants.
- Why consistency matters: One mistake—forgetting to assign a class, choosing the wrong customer—and your reports will be wrong.
Why You Need Both Customers AND Classes
I know, it seems redundant.
It feels like double work.
But each serves a different purpose:
- Customers let you track who owes money. You send invoices to customers (tenants). You receive payments from customers. QuickBooks uses customers for accounts receivable tracking.
- Classes enable property-by-property profit and loss reports. When you categorize a transaction with a class, QuickBooks knows which property it belongs to. Without classes, all your properties get lumped together.
You must assign both to every transaction.
Real example: When you invoice Tenant A for September rent, you set Customer:
“123 Main Street > Tenant A” and Class: “123 Main Street.”
The customer tracks the receivable. The class enables reporting by property.
It’s a double-entry system specifically for rental properties.
How to Setup QuickBooks for Rental Properties: The Step-by-Step Process [2026 Edition]
Let’s get into the actual setup.
Eight steps. 3-5 hours total for most landlords. Worth doing right the first time.
Note: These instructions assume QuickBooks Online Plus or Advanced (class tracking required).
Step 1: Create Your Company
If you haven’t set up QuickBooks yet, start here.
Sign up for QuickBooks Online Plus ($90/month minimum). Enter your company name—use your business name or property LLC name.
Then, select your industry as “Real Estate” when prompted.
A set of tasks will pop up on the right once you hit your dashboard, complete the initial setup wizard as it will help to ensure all your info is in place for a variety of features:
Time required: 15-20 minutes
Step 2: Set Up Chart of Accounts (Schedule E Mapping)
This is the most important step.
Your chart of accounts is your financial categorization system. It determines how transactions are organized and reported. For rental properties, your chart of accounts MUST match Schedule E categories for proper tax reporting.
QuickBooks comes with generic accounts. They’re not useful for rental properties. You need to add rental-specific accounts.
*Reference: IRS Schedule E (Form 1040) and Form 8825
Required Income Accounts:
- 4000: Rental Income (or create separate income accounts per property)
- 4010: Other Income
Required Expense Accounts (matching Schedule E lines):
- 5000: Advertising
- 5010: Auto and Travel
- 5020: Cleaning and Maintenance
- 5030: Commissions
- 5040: Insurance
- 5050: Legal and Professional Services
- 5060: Management Fees
- 5070: Mortgage Interest (deductible portion only)
- 5080: Other Interest
- 5090: Repairs
- 5100: Supplies
- 5110: Taxes (property taxes)
- 5120: Utilities
- 5130: Depreciation (usually tracked by your CPA, not in QuickBooks directly)
- 5140: Other Expenses
Required Asset Accounts (including examples):
- 1500: Property – 123 Main St (Fixed Asset)
- 1510: Property – 456 Oak Ave (Fixed Asset)
- 1520: Accumulated Depreciation
Required Liability Accounts (including examples):
- 2000: Mortgage – 123 Main St
- 2010: Mortgage – 456 Oak Ave
- 2500: Security Deposits Held (Other Current Liability)
How to add accounts:
Click the Gear icon (top right). Select “Chart of Accounts.” Click the “New” button:
Select Account Type (Income, Expense, Fixed Asset, Other Current Liability, etc.). Select Detail Type within that account type.
Enter the Name (match Schedule E categories for expenses). Add a Description if helpful. Save and close.
Repeat for each account listed above.
Time required: 30-60 minutes depending on the number of accounts
Step 3: Add Bank and Credit Card Accounts
Next, it’s time to connect the bank accounts you use for rental properties.
Keep rental accounts separate from personal or even other business accounts if possible.
I know that the likely reason you’re using QuickBooks is because you’re already using it for another business, but do your best to keep things separate.
Also, some landlords have separate bank accounts for each property—this is ideal but not required. I’d look to do this particularly with larger multi-family or multi-unit commercial properties, otherwise it’s not necessary.
How to connect accounts:
You should have done so via the setup wizard referenced in step 1 (easiest and most straightforward way), but if not:
Go to the Banking menu > Banking tab.
Click “Add Account” or “Link Account.” Search for your bank name.
Enter your online banking login credentials. Select which accounts to sync (checking, savings, credit cards). QuickBooks will begin auto-importing transactions.
Remember the new user setup tasks we looked at in step 1? This is the easiest way to get to the bank connection menu.
Head there and add your accounts and take care of any additional setup tasks while you’re at it.
Important: You must review and categorize all imported transactions. Nothing happens automatically without your review.
Time required: 20-30 minutes
Step 4: Enable and Set Up Class Tracking
This is essential for property-by-property reporting.
Without classes, you cannot separate financial performance by property. Everything gets lumped together. Classes are ONLY available in QuickBooks Online Plus and Advanced (not Simple Start or Essentials).
How to enable class tracking:
Click the Gear icon > Account and Settings. Go to the “Advanced” tab on the left.
Click the Edit pencil icon next to “Categories.”
Check the box: “Track classes” and then “Warn me when a transaction isn’t assigned a class” (VERY IMPORTANT—this prevents mistakes).
Under “Assign classes,” select “One to entire transaction.” Click Save. Click Done.
How to create classes for each property:
Click the Gear icon > Lists > All Lists. Select “Classes” from the lists (take a note of this list as you’ll come back to it frequently).
Click “New” to create a class. Enter the class name (use property address for clarity).
Examples:
- 123 Main St Unit A
- 456 Oak Ave
- Portfolio Summary (optional parent class for grouping)
Save the class. Repeat for each property you own.
Pro tip: Use consistent, clear naming. Property addresses work best because they’re unambiguous. Avoid abbreviations that might confuse you later.
Time required: 15-20 minutes
Step 5: Set Up Properties as Customers
Remember the workaround: properties are “customers” in QuickBooks.
This allows you to invoice tenants and track income by property. Don’t overthink it—it’s just the system QuickBooks uses.
How to add properties as customers:
Go to All Apps > Customer Hub. Click “Add Customer Manually”.
Enter the property address as the Display Name (e.g., “123 Main Street”). Fill in the property address in the address fields.
Add any notes you want (property type, purchase date, etc.).
Save, then repeat for each property.
What to include:
Property address (street, city, state, zip code). Property type in notes (single-family, duplex, multifamily). Purchase date in notes (optional). Any other relevant property details.
Time required: 10-15 minutes for 5 properties
Step 6: Add Tenants as Sub-Customers
Tenants are sub-customers under each property.
This links tenants to their specific property and allows you to invoice them for rent.
How to add tenants as sub-customers:
Go back to Sales > Customers. Click “New Customer” just like before. However, this time check the box “Is a sub-customer”. Select the parent customer (the property address where the tenant resides).
Enter the tenant’s name as Display Name (e.g., “John Smith”). Add tenant contact information (email for invoicing, phone number). Add lease details in the notes field (start date, monthly rent).
Save, then repeat for each tenant.
What to include:
Tenant name. Contact email (required for emailing invoices). Phone number. Lease start date in notes. Monthly rent amount in notes. Any special terms or notes about the lease.
Time required: 5-10 minutes per tenant
Step 7: Create Income Products and Services
Define what you charge tenants for.
These “products” and “services” appear on invoices and keep your income properly categorized.
How to create products and services:
Click Gear icon > Products and Services.
Click “Create Item” > Select “Service” under Item Type (not product—services work better for rent).
Enter the name: “Monthly Rent – [Property Address]” (or just “Monthly Rent” if you want one general item). Select Income Account: 4000 Rental Income.
Enter the monthly rent amount (can be changed per invoice). Check “I sell this product/service to my customers.” Save.
If you don’t yet have your accounts setup, you can create your 4000 rental income account right within this window by clicking on “Income Account”:
Create additional services:
- Late Fees (mapped to Rental Income or Other Income)
- Pet Rent (mapped to Rental Income)
- Parking Fees (mapped to Rental Income or Other Income)
- Security Deposit (IMPORTANT: Map this to Liability Account 2500, NOT income)
- Application Fees (mapped to Other Income)
Critical note: Security deposits are NOT income. They must be mapped to the liability account “Security Deposits Held” (account 2500). Only if you keep the deposit for damages does it become income.
Time required: 15-20 minutes
Step 8: Configure Recurring Invoices for Rent
Automate monthly rent billing so you’re not manually creating invoices every month.
How to create recurring invoices:
Go to Sales > Customers. Select a tenant (sub-customer). Click “Create Invoice.”
Set the invoice date to the rent due date (e.g., 1st of the month).
Add Product/Service: Select “Monthly Rent.” Enter the rent amount.
Assign Class: Select the property address class. At the bottom of the invoice, click “Make Recurring.” Set the template name: “[Tenant Name] Monthly Rent.”
Type: Select “Scheduled.” Interval: Select “Monthly.” Start date: First rent due date. End: Select “None” (or set to lease end date if known). Optional: Check “Automatically send” to email invoices to tenants. Save Template.
Repeat for each tenant.
Pro tip: Set invoices to send 3-5 days before the due date. This gives tenants a reminder and improves on-time payment rates.
Time required: 10 minutes per tenant
Recording Common Transactions
Setup is done.
Now the ongoing work begins.
Most transactions import automatically from your connected bank accounts. You just need to categorize them and assign classes. Here are the key transaction types you’ll record.
Recording Rent Payments
When rent arrives, you need to apply it properly.
If using recurring invoices (recommended):
When rent arrives and imports from your bank, go to Sales > Customers. Select the tenant. Click “Receive Payment.” Select the open invoice. Enter the payment amount. Select the payment method (bank transfer, check, etc.). Match the payment to the imported bank transaction. Assign the class: Property address. Save.
If not using invoices:
Create a Sales Receipt instead. This records income without creating an invoice first. Still assign the customer (tenant) and class (property).
Time per payment: 2-3 minutes once you’re familiar with the process
Recording Expenses
Most expenses import from your connected bank accounts and credit cards.
You must categorize them and assign them to the correct property.
For imported transactions:
Go to your Banking tab. Review imported transactions in the “For Review” section. For each expense:
- Select the correct expense category (match Schedule E categories)
- Assign the class (property address)
- Add a memo if needed for clarity
- Click “Match” (if QuickBooks found a match) or “Add” (if new)
For manual expenses:
Create an Expense transaction. Select the vendor (Home Depot, plumber, etc.). Choose the expense account (Repairs, Supplies, Insurance, etc.). Enter the amount. Assign the class (property address). Save.
Common expenses you’ll record:
Repairs (immediate fixes, categorize to property). Maintenance (regular upkeep). Property management fees (if applicable). Insurance premiums. Property taxes. Utilities (if landlord pays). HOA fees.
Time per transaction: 1-2 minutes with bank sync
Handling Security Deposits
Security deposits require careful handling.
They’re NOT income when you receive them. They’re liabilities—money you owe back to the tenant. Only if you keep the deposit for damages does it become income.
Recording a security deposit received:
Create a Sales Receipt (not an invoice). Select the tenant as the customer. Add Product/Service: Security Deposit. Enter the deposit amount (on Security Deposit line):
Make sure it’s assigned to Account 2500: Security Deposits Held (liability). Assign class: Property address. Save.
This increases your Security Deposits Held liability account.
Returning a security deposit:
Create an Expense or Check transaction. Payee: Tenant name. Category: Account 2500: Security Deposits Held (reduces the liability). Amount: Refund amount. Assign class: Property address. Save.
This reduces your liability because you no longer owe the tenant that money.
Keeping a deposit for damages:
Create a Journal Entry. Debit: Account 2500 Security Deposits Held (reduces liability). Credit: Account 4000 Rental Income or 4010 Other Income (increases income). Memo: “Kept for [damage description].” Assign class: Property address. Save.
This moves the money from liability to income because you’re keeping it.
Setting Up Multiple Properties in QuickBooks
You have two approaches for managing multiple properties.
Each has trade-offs.
Option 1: Single Company with Class Tracking
How it works:
One QuickBooks company file. All properties in one account. Use classes to separate properties. Run “Profit & Loss by Class” to see each property separately. One portfolio-level view showing everything.
Pros:
One subscription cost. Easy to see portfolio overview. Simpler to manage—only one company to log into. One reconciliation process. Combined reporting available when needed.
Cons:
Risk of assigning wrong class to transactions. One mistake affects all reports. Harder to separate properties completely for tax purposes (especially if you have multiple LLCs). Can get messy with many properties (10+).
Best for: 1-10 properties under single ownership or single LLC
Option 2: Separate Companies per Property
How it works:
Create separate QuickBooks company files for each property. Completely independent accounting. Must switch between companies. May require separate subscriptions depending on QuickBooks plan.
Pros:
Zero risk of mixing property finances. Cleaner reporting per property. Easier to sell individual properties (complete financial records separate). Better for separate LLCs. Simpler tax preparation per property.
Cons:
Multiple subscription costs (QuickBooks Online allows 2 companies per subscription, so more than 2 properties requires additional subscriptions). Must switch between companies constantly. No portfolio-level overview without manually combining data. More time spent on reconciliation across multiple accounts.
Best for: Multiple LLCs, properties in different states, 5+ properties where clean separation is critical
Note: QuickBooks Online includes access to 2 company files per subscription. Beyond that, you pay for additional subscriptions.
Common QuickBooks Setup Mistakes to Avoid
Even with good instructions, mistakes happen.
Let me help you avoid the most common ones.
Mistake #1: Forgetting to assign classes
Every transaction needs a class (property). Without classes, you cannot run property-by-property reports. Turn on the “warn me when a transaction isn’t assigned a class” setting in your class configuration. This catches forgotten assignments before they become report problems.
Mistake #2: Using wrong account types
Properties must be Fixed Assets (not expenses). Recording a property purchase as an expense drastically overstates expenses and understates assets. Mortgages must be Liabilities (not expenses). Only the interest portion is an expense. Security deposits must be Liabilities (not income). Recording deposits as income overstates your taxable income.
Mistake #3: Not splitting mortgage payments
Recording the entire mortgage payment as an expense overstates your expenses. You must split each payment into principal (reduces liability) and interest (deductible expense). Your monthly statement shows this breakdown.
Mistake #4: Mixing property and personal transactions
Keep rental finances completely separate from personal finances. Use dedicated bank accounts for rental properties. Mixing creates audit risk and makes reports unreliable.
Mistake #5: Incorrect security deposit handling
Recording security deposits as income when received creates tax problems. They’re liabilities until you keep them for damages. Use the liability account workflow described earlier.
Mistake #6: Not reconciling monthly
Bank accounts should be reconciled every month. This catches errors immediately. Waiting until year-end means errors compound and become harder to find.
Mistake #7: Inconsistent categorization
Use the same expense account for the same types of expenses every time. Inconsistency makes reports messy and less useful. Set up bank rules for recurring transactions to ensure consistency.
Mistake #8: Skipping class setup entirely
Some landlords try to use QuickBooks without classes. This defeats the entire purpose. You cannot generate property-specific reports without classes. Don’t skip this step.
QuickBooks Limitations and When to Consider Alternatives
Let’s be honest about what QuickBooks can’t do.
The workarounds work. But they have real limitations.
What QuickBooks Can’t Do
- No built-in rent collection. You need a third-party service like PayPal, Venmo, or a dedicated rent collection platform. Then you record payments manually or through import.
- No tenant portal where renters can pay online, view their lease, or submit maintenance requests.
- No maintenance request tracking or work order management. You handle this outside QuickBooks.
- No lease management or automatic renewal reminders.
- No online rental listings or applicant management.
- No tenant screening services integrated.
- No automated late fee calculation or assessment. You must create these manually.
- Time-consuming manual processes for tasks that specialized software automates
Signs You’ve Outgrown QuickBooks
- You’re managing 10+ properties and the workarounds are becoming painful.
- You’re spending 5+ hours monthly on QuickBooks maintenance and transactions.
- You need rent collection integrated into your accounting system.
- You want tenant self-service portals to reduce back-and-forth.
- You’re managing properties for other owners and need proper trust accounting.
- You need maintenance tracking so requests don’t fall through cracks.
- You’re growing beyond the DIY landlord phase into professional property management.
The Specialized Software Alternative
Purpose-built property management software was designed for this use case.
All features integrated. No workarounds needed. Native property and tenant fields. Built-in rent collection. Automated late fees. Tenant portals. Maintenance tracking. Lease management. Better reporting.
Often LESS expensive than QuickBooks Plus ($90/month). Many platforms cost $50-75/month with more features.
Mocha Manage as an example:
All-in-one platform combining property accounting and management. No QuickBooks workarounds—properties are properties, tenants are tenants. Integrated rent collection, maintenance tracking, and reporting. Built specifically for landlords and HOAs. Designed to be simple without sacrificing power.
Integrating QuickBooks with Other Software
QuickBooks doesn’t do everything.
But you can integrate it with specialized tools to fill the gaps.
Property management platforms like DoorLoop and Buildium sync with QuickBooks. Rent collection platforms (though options are limited for direct QB integration). Maintenance management tools. Accounting automation through Bill.com. Payroll through Gusto.
Mocha Manage + QuickBooks integration:
If you must keep QuickBooks (perhaps your accountant requires it), Mocha Manage can handle the property management side. Property and tenant management. Rent collection. Maintenance tracking. Data syncs to QuickBooks for accounting. Best of both worlds approach.
The integration approach adds complexity but fills critical feature gaps.
Next Step: Consider Better Alternatives
QuickBooks works for rental properties with the right setup.
Follow these eight steps. Configure your chart of accounts to match Schedule E. Enable class tracking. Set up properties as customers and tenants as sub-customers. Create recurring invoices. You’ll have a functional system.
But remember the limitations. No rent collection. No maintenance tracking. No tenant portals. Ongoing manual work. And $90/month minimum for the features you need.
Mocha Manage offers a comprehensive alternative.
Purpose-built for property management and accounting. No workarounds—properties are properties, tenants are tenants.
Built-in rent collection, maintenance tracking, and tenant portals. All-in-one platform that typically costs less than QuickBooks Plus while offering more functionality.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use QuickBooks for property management?
Yes, but it requires significant workarounds. Properties must be set up as “customers,” tenants as “sub-customers,” and you need QuickBooks Plus ($90/month) for class tracking to generate property-by-property reports.
Q: Which QuickBooks version do I need for rental properties?
QuickBooks Online Plus ($90/month) is the minimum requirement because it includes class tracking. Simple Start ($30/month) and Essentials ($60/month) lack class tracking, making them unsuitable for rental properties. Without classes, you cannot separate financial performance by property.
Q: How long does QuickBooks setup take for rental properties?
Initial setup takes 3-5 hours including chart of accounts configuration, class tracking setup, adding properties as customers, adding tenants as sub-customers, creating income products/services, and setting up recurring invoices.
Q: How do I set up a chart of accounts for rental properties?
Reference IRS Schedule E categories. Add income accounts for rental income and other income. Add expense accounts matching Schedule E lines (advertising, insurance, repairs, supplies, taxes, utilities, etc.).
Q: Do I need QuickBooks Plus or will Essentials work?
You need Plus minimum. Essentials lacks class tracking, which is absolutely essential for property-by-property reporting. Without the ability to assign classes to transactions, you cannot separate financial performance by property.
Q: How do I handle security deposits in QuickBooks?
Create an “Other Current Liability” account called “Security Deposits Held.” When you receive a deposit, record it as a Sales Receipt assigned to this liability account (not income). When returning a deposit, create an Expense reducing the liability.
Q: Can QuickBooks handle property management company trust accounts?
Technically yes, but it requires two separate QuickBooks subscriptions and complex configuration. One subscription for your property management business and another for owner/trust accounting.
Q: Should I use one QuickBooks company or separate companies for each property?
One company with class tracking works well for 1-10 properties under single ownership. Separate companies work better for multiple LLCs, properties in different states, or 10+ properties where you need complete financial separation.
Q: Can I migrate from QuickBooks to property management software?
Yes. Export your transactions and reports from QuickBooks. Most property management platforms can import transaction data or help you start fresh with current year data.
Q: Does QuickBooks integrate with property management software?
Some property management platforms, like Mocha Manage offer QuickBooks integration. Mocha Manage can sync data with QuickBooks, allowing you to use property management software for operations while maintaining QuickBooks for accounting if your accountant requires it.
