Whether you host on Airbnb or lease to long-term tenants, we keep your income tracked, expenses categorized, and books tax-ready every month.

The Challenges Short & Long-Term Rentals Companies Face

Income Tracking Done Right

Airbnb deposits net payouts but the IRS wants gross revenue. This mismatch is the number one cause of STR audit triggers. Long-term rentals have their own complexity with security deposits, maintenance reserves, and per-unit tracking.

Multi-Source Complexity

Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, and direct bookings all have different fee structures and payout timing. Long-term leases add tenant deposits and reserve accounts. Without proper setup, your books are always playing catch-up.

Per-Property Profitability

Which properties are cash-flowing and which are dragging down your portfolio? Without per-door P&L across both short and long-term holdings, you can't make informed decisions about acquisitions or dispositions.
