Buildium

Hey Guys,

I just started my buildium account about a week ago and I love what it can do so far. I have a handle on most of it, but I keep getting hung up on some of the accounting parts. Is there anyone who would be willing to help me out in Tulsa. I would be more than happy to buy lunch!

@Zachary C.

If I was small and just starting out I might think the buildium accounting and report are OK. However I have been using Quickbooks for close to 20 years.  Quickbook is easily modified for your personal business. Additionally you can run any number of reports and modify them on the fly. I have found the reports in Buildium tedious to use and many times they don't quite give me the information I need. But then Buildium is built to manage properties and Quickbooks is built to manage money. Quickbook can do many (but not all) of the property management function that Buildium does. But it is very cumbersome.  So I guess I would say best to use the right tool for the right job.
