Saves me the expense of a book keeper to do it for me.

Accurate bookkeeping will be required including a balance sheet and maintaining equity accounts.MI does handle it a bit differently and I wouldWhere in IL?

Which should I start out with Accountant Bookkeeper or CPA in ct area

@Derek LarsonI use a credit card for each property and then the bookkeeper knows what class to put it under in QuickBooks- no spreadsheets just Quickbooks and credit cards. 

The skills I have is bookkeeping, admin and a little bit of web development.

One is a house hack. looking for advise from a CPA for proper bookkeeping and tax planning who works w/RE in CA.

This is something added to an existing LLCAnd an S corp can actually COST you more than save you if you set it up too soon since now you have to pay for a corporate tax filing, payroll, more bookkeeping ect. 

I would figure all the bookkeeping, phone calls, coordination, etc. wouldn't need to have a license to perform those acts and you could just sign a contract per say with the owner saying I'll provide X services at X fee that I bill you for every month.I even considered going underneath someone else's broker license and just build up from there but the fact that they are going to take a big percentage of my already small percentage off rent just irks me when I'm willing to just build off my systems that I have already built/tested. 

What are those of you who house hack or live in unit and rent out another doing for bookkeeping? 

Hoping to get some suggestions on apps that help in bookkeeping on rental properties.
