QuickBooks - Looking for Resource to get Set Up

Irv Rollman

Posted

Well, I just bought my first rental property, and will have it leased out shortly. Now it's time to set up the accounting. I have a copy of QuickBooks (2015) from another business I own, and would like to use that. For now, I'm self-managing, but hiring a property manager at some point would be likely. (Hot sure that's relevant or not....)

What I'm looking for is a resource - printed preferably, as i'm not a big fan of sitting through video tutorials - that I can use to get things set up. Chart of accounts, how to set up properties (as "Customers"?), tenants (as "Jobs"?), how to issue receipts, statements, etc.

Nancy Neville seems to shamelessly (or at least prolifically) promote her materials here. Are they any good? Are there other resources?

This post is NOT about what to use, I already have QuickBooks and am somewhat familiar with it. It's about how to set up what I have.

Thanks!

Irv, I don't "Shamelessly" promote my books on here, I pay to advertise on here and that is quite a different matter.

When someone promotes their business on here it is done through the MARKETPLACE. 

Just to let you know.
