Dominic -I run a design build business; I've been where you are... having books that are weeks to months out of date is horrible and can spell disaster as you make decisions based on bad and untimely data.What we've done, after years of trial and error and tons of money lost on bad solutions, is the following -* Off set accountant who does monthly reconciliations and statements, year-end taxes (We run on basis of completion, which I recommend you switch to immediately)* Off site book keeper who does day to day data entry* Quickbooks on a server on the internet so everyone can log in remotely* Paychex handling weekly payrollDon't pay an accountant to do your data entry, it's usually way too expensive and not necessary... don't pay your data entry person to do your monthly reconciliations and statements (They don't know enough, typically).

So a mobile first solution makes more sense for my needs.

One tenant desperately needs the help and it seems like an easy enough solution on my end. 

Yes many flippers try to do the work themselves thinking they can get it done cheaper and because they can't find professional, reliable and appropriately priced contractors that know what they are doing and get it done efficiently.

If I find that I need a more comprehensive solution, I'll look into Buildium.  

I'm very interested in the financial analysis, projections, and creative solutions to business problems.
