Buildium is true small business accounting software that uses double entry accounting behind the scenes so you do not need to take an accounting class to use it.
Enter bills into Buildium as you receive them (a standard accounting practice) then pay them when they are due with a check or electronic funds transfer. Also, track income and expenses in Buildium by tenant and by property to see the level of detail you need.
Buildium cuts down on redundant accounting tasks by automating entries. For example, when you pay a bill, Buildium automatically creates an expense for the associated property. If you use a Buildium merchant account, property income will be tracked automatically as you receive online payments.
