It's all give and take and cost/benefit analysis you need to consider/decide upon.As others have said, go to local REI meetings, meetups, or just try to connect with people here and see what value you can provide these people in exchange for their help.Maybe you can re-design their website for them, or do some bookkeeping, or clean their office, or whatever skill you have that you think they might benefit from. 

Taxes - At tax time you will be filing a Schedule E, so simplify your bookkeeping by using categories that match well with that form.

I hired a part time bookkeeper to keep the books up to date. 

-I could offer him something like a 60/40 split to compensate but that would make some of the bookkeeping tricky.

Other than that, sometimes, its easier bookkeeping with two separate accounts.

Hi BPI’m wondering how much do you typically pay your bookkeeper?

If you can't make your own spreadsheets or databases, quickbooks is usually a good option for bookkeeping.

Mistaken ideas, limited future options, maticulous bookkeeping required, changing circumstances, etc are reasons clients are not happy with the decision to partner with their Ira.

Hey everyone, Im looking for a local bookkeeper in Houston who can help me get set up (and caught up) with my books on my flip business.

Does anyone out there have a really solid book keeping spreadsheet/template they use on their rental properties?
