Q: I just installed QuickBooks and I wanted to view a sample file for my industry. Are there any QuickBooks samples for the Real Estate industry?
A: QuickBooks doesn’t come with a real estate sample file but we have a number of sample files available with our manuals. What aspect of the real estate industry are you looking for?
We have samples files for: landlord rentals, property manager rentals, commercial property, Condo, HOA, Buy Rehab Flip, REO, Real Estate Agents, Brokers.
If you are setting up your own real estate file, follow our guidelines so you have accurate reports.
Q: I would be interested in a sample for a real estate agent and/or team of agents. there is a chart of accounts at www.millionairesystems.com BUT it doesn’t directly correspond to what I report for taxes. (In TN, realtors can only be self-employed: no corps that can receive commissions as in other states)
A: One of the easy things you can do with QuickBooks is, you can add, edit or delete a account. You decide, what type of income and expenses you want to track in detail or in summary, making it easy for you to track your expenses to cut cost when necessary. Either way you will be able to file your tax returns with the data you enter.
