Coconut + Property Managers: Faster Bank Import
Property managers handling rent collection, maintenance expenses, HOA dues, and owner distributions across multiple properties need meticulous bank reconciliation. If you use Coconut for your accounting, you need a fast way to get bank statement data into the system.
BankScan AI for Property Managers Using Coconut
BankScan AI converts any bank statement PDF to CSV formatted for direct import into Coconut. Convert property management bank statements to Excel to reconcile rent payments, track maintenance costs, and prepare owner distribution reports.
The Property Managers + Coconut Workflow
Property managers collect rent from tenants via ACH or check, pay property owners their distributions after deducting management fees and expenses, coordinate maintenance vendor payments, handle security deposit accounts, and reconcile HOA dues. Monthly owner statements must be prepared from bank data showing all income and expenses for each property in the portfolio.
Key terms you'll encounter: owner distribution, CAM charges, security deposit trust, rent roll.
