Q: I am a property manager in New York so I can’t combine commercial and residential property income. There is a special real estate form filed for commercial property so most accountants want income and accounts receivable separated according to commercial and residential. How can I keep my data separated from my accountant and how to manage New York property management in QuickBooks?
A: As I do not know of your setup, there are many ways to track details. You could create two Items or Accounts: one for residential rentals and another for commercial rentals.
Alternatively, you could use Class and then modify your reports by Class. We suggest using Class to track properties for property management and real estate. track New York property management in QuickBooks.
