How should rental property bookkeeping be organized?

Each property should have its own income and expense records. This allows investors to see the profitability of each rental, identify vacancies, and track maintenance costs without losing clarity across a portfolio. We can help set up your bookkeeping for success.

What KPIs should real estate investors monitor?

Key performance indicators (KPIs) include cash-on-cash return, internal rate of return (IRR), net operating income (NOI), and cap rate. Monitoring these helps investors evaluate performance and make better acquisition or selling decisions.

Why is cost segregation important for real estate?

Cost segregation allows investors to accelerate depreciation on certain building components, reducing taxable income in the early years of ownership. This strategy can provide significant tax savings when applied correctly.
