As a Senior Bookkeeper, I provided ongoing bookkeeping and accounting services for a U.S.-based real estate company using QuickBooks Online. I managed the bookkeeping cycle and maintained accurate, organized, and current financial records for rental properties. My responsibilities included recording rental income, security deposits, property expenses, repairs and maintenance, utilities, insurance, property taxes, management fees, mortgage payments, loan activity, owner contributions, and distributions. I reviewed bank-feed transactions, assigned the correct properties, payees, classes, and accounts, and ensured personal and business expenses were properly separated. I completed monthly bank and credit-card reconciliations, compared QuickBooks balances with statements, investigated discrepancies, and corrected missing, duplicated, or incorrectly recorded transactions. I also performed QuickBooks cleanup and catch-up work by correcting misclassifications, reviewing opening balances, resolving reconciliation differences, reorganizing the chart of accounts, and improving the accuracy of the records. For monthly reporting, I prepared property-level and consolidated Profit and Loss Statements, Balance Sheets, Cash Flow Statements, General Ledgers, reconciliation reports, and owner statements. I tracked income and expenses by property, reviewed accounts payable and receivable, monitored outstanding balances, and provided supporting schedules when required. I maintained month-end closing procedures and ensured reports were complete, reconciled, and ready for management review. Through careful bookkeeping, timely communication, and close attention to detail, I delivered reliable financial information that helped property owners evaluate profitability, monitor cash flow, control operating costs, and make informed decisions. My work ensured clean, tax-ready, and decision-ready QuickBooks Online records while supporting efficient property management and financial visibility.
