Bookkeeper recommendations for vacation rentals?

Hi all,

Have gone through prior posts on the topic and seems like as you scale your number of vacation rentals, having a bookkeeper + quickbooks online pro is the most common recommended accounting solution. Sometimes people use an integration like OwnerRez to get the revenue data from the platforms into quickbooks as well.

Seeing if anyone has a recommendation for a shop that can get us started with the right setup for accounting and bookkeeping and then ideally manage the bookkeeping for us on an ongoing basis? Ideally one that understands STRs and has some familiarity with extracting the revenue data from Airbnb & Vrbo.

We're currently up to 6 rentals and now our Google Sheets spreadsheet solution is getting a bit time consuming.

Thanks!

Rohin

Relatedly, we will probably need to move on from our current accountant this year to one that's more real estate focused.

We grew fast and ended up with a different CPA every year for a few years there. I feel your paint. Growing pains! It's a good problem to have! Beats working at dunder mifflin!
