The actual bookkeeping file would be even better. 

At about 20 units you need to start outsourcing tasks, but I would keep it all 1099 and divide different tasks to different people, contrators, handyman, bookkeeper, and admin.

Not only does this make things easier for bookkeeping, it helps to keep you under the protection of the corporate veil... you don't want a potential lawsuit regarding the property to be able to "pierce the corporate veil" by finding you used your personal credit card to pay for an expense related to the LLC. - most lenders will not lend to an LLC, so if you plan to finance the property you'll need to get the title in your name and then deed the property to the LLC.

forester (1) ,   full charge book keeper (1) ,  admin staff (1) .. once that was completed and we could do volume then we hired   Telemarketers  ( 3)  that worked in my office in the evenings. timber leads are not super plentiful so my partner and I worked the leads with him doing most of it.

I use quickbooks online for bookkeeping (but even that is overkill with my 2 properties, but I was using when I had my 9).Tenant requests are 99% text messages.Formal notices (rare) are text, email and certified letter.And anything paper gets scanned and saved in my property folder on my computer and backed up to iCloud.Like Nathan said, you don't need a software with one property.  

Hi BiggerPockets Members,Can anyone recommend a good book keeper in the Denver Metro area that has an understanding of real estate investing?

Hi Denver Metro fellow Real Estate Investors,Can someone recommend a good book keeper that understands Real Estate Investing??

If you are just bookkeeping, your job will be relatively simpler as you won't have to reconcile with the tax basis.

Hey all,I'm categorizing this as a software question rather than an accounting question, but it could be both.I've been using Quickbooks to do by book keeping (Mac), but am looking at moving to a web-based tool for the benefits of mobile features, etc.

What bookkeeping and account software do you recommend?
