Your Bookkeeping Agent keeps the money side of your rentals organized — starting with the part that matters most: knowing who has paid and who hasn't.
Rent & Income Tracking
The agent watches your rental income and:
•Tracks every rent payment — who paid, when, and how much, per unit and per property
•Flags late payers — you know on day one, not when you sit down to do the numbers
•Drafts reminders — polite nudges for overdue rent, held for your approval before anything goes out
•Tracks what is owed — every charge and payment you record stays reconciled against the right unit and month
Invoice Management
For money you're owed:
•Outgoing — drafts invoices for tenants, buyers, or partners based on your templates
•Payment tracking — marks invoices as paid, partially paid, or overdue
•Late notices — drafts collection reminders for overdue payments (nothing sends without your OK)
Financial Summaries
The Bookkeeping Agent keeps a running picture of your income:
•Monthly income summary — rent collected by property or portfolio-wide
•Collection status — billed versus collected, with the gap named and itemized
•Late-payment history — patterns you can act on before they become problems

Coming soon: expense entry and categorization. Today the agent tracks the income side; logging expenses against properties — and the P&L, expense summaries, and tax-ready reports that follow from it — is on the way.
QuickBooks
We trust QuickBooks with our own books — Doughy's company accounting runs on it today. Connecting your own QuickBooks account is on the way; during early access, our team can help you get set up.
What the Bookkeeping Agent Needs From You
•Property list — so income can be attributed correctly
•Rent schedule — amounts and due dates per unit
•Payment links (optional) — for when rent collection opens; nothing charges a tenant today
Example: Monthly Collection Summary
At the end of the month, your Bookkeeping Agent reports:
•123 Main St — Rent billed: $1,800. Collected: $1,800, paid on the 1st.
•456 Oak Ave — Rent billed: $2,200. Collected: $0 — fifteen days late, three reminders drafted and approved, next step waiting on you.
•Portfolio total — Billed: $4,000. Collected: $1,800. Outstanding: $2,200, itemized by unit.
The summary is ready to read — no spreadsheet to build first.
