Real Estate Bookkeeping| | 15+yr |QBO, AppFolio, Buildium| Ex-Big Four
Property management companies, construction companies, rental real estate owners and fix-and-flip investors | I'm Gaurav Singla, a Chartered Accountant (CA, FCA) with 15+ years of experience, trained at PwC, Deloitte, American Express and Grant Thornton. I run True Reckoner Advisory Services, and real estate accounting is where I've focused my practice- across QuickBooks Online, AppFolio, Buildium, Rent manager, Yardi and Buildertrend whichever system your business runs on. For property managers, I handle- • Full-cycle bookkeeping in AppFolio, Buildium, or QuickBooks Online whichever platform you use • Tenant ledger management, rent charges, deposits, credits, late fees • Lease tracking and move-in/move-out accounting • Trust account setup and monthly bank reconciliations • Vendor bills, utility allocations, and property-level expense coding • Owner statements and portfolio-level financial reporting • 1099 tracking and vendor compliance • Multi-property chart of accounts structuring so each property's P&L is clean and separable • Migration and parallel-run support when switching between AppFolio, Buildium, and QuickBooks Online For construction and development companies, I handle: • Job costing setup and tracking in QuickBooks Online • Budget-vs-actual reporting by project, not just company-wide • Progress billing and draw schedule tracking • Subcontractor and vendor payment management • WIP (work-in-progress) schedules and percentage-of-completion reporting • Retainage tracking • Cost code structuring so labor, materials, and overhead are visible separately per job For fix-and-flip investors, I handle: • Project-level cost tracking acquisition, rehab, holding costs, financing • Rehab budget vs. actual spend by property • True margin analysis before listing, not after • Multi-project bookkeeping when you're running several flips at once • QuickBooks Online setup structured around class or project tracking, so each flip's numbers stay separate and clean For real estate owners and portfolio holders, I handle: • Monthly bookkeeping and bank/credit card reconciliations across all entities and properties, in AppFolio, Buildium, or QuickBooks Online • Cash flow forecasting and reporting across a growing portfolio • Mortgage, escrow, and property tax tracking • Capital expenditure vs. operating expense classification • Entity-level and consolidated portfolio reporting • Budgeting for renovations, capital improvements, and acquisitions • Investor-ready financial packages for partnerships, syndications, and LLCs • Cleanup and catch-up bookkeeping when books have fallen behind or need to be brought current before tax season, refinancing, or a sale Software expertise- • AppFolio- full-cycle property management accounting, trust accounting, owner and tenant portals, reporting • Buildium- bookkeeping, tenant and lease management, association and portfolio accounting • QuickBooks Online- chart of accounts setup, job costing, project tracking, cleanup/catch-up, reconciliations, and financial reporting for real estate entities If your books are behind, inconsistent, or not telling you what's actually happening across your properties or projects- regardless of which system they live in - that's the specific problem I fix. Send me an invite and let's look at where things stand.
