No matter if you’re investing in residential or commercial real estate, using multiple funding sources or own properties with different tax classifications – when organizing investment financial statements you need more than Excel or Google Docs spreadsheet. A real estate investor financial statement software program can save time, money and headaches by automating key accounting functions such as bank synchronization, transaction categorization and reporting; additionally it will simplify tax preparation by making filing Schedule E and depreciation reports with the IRS easier.

Real estate investment accounting software offers superior scalability, efficiency, accuracy and insight when compared with manual methods or spreadsheets. Although simple spreadsheets may suffice when investing in one single-family property, their limitations become evident as your portfolio expands and you scale operations. Furthermore, spreadsheets are vulnerable to errors when downloaded manually into categories; lack automation features; don’t include built-in checks for proper accounting principles (like tracking profitability property-by-property); they lack automation and were not intended for tracking profitability property-by-property).

Financial statement software should provide more than just streamline real estate investments; its primary features should also include:

General Ledger & Core Accounting – Automated transaction import, categorization and reconciliation; user-friendly charts of accounts and custom reports to provide an in-depth view of your business finances; securely connecting to banking services to download transactions automatically for reconciling purposes – Bank and credit card syncing: Automatic download transactions that match recorded income & expenses to streamline reconciliation processes
