TurboTax + Real Estate Agents: Faster Bank Import
Real estate agents and brokers need to review buyer bank statements for pre-qualification, track commission income, and manage escrow account reconciliation. If you use TurboTax for your accounting, you need a fast way to get bank statement data into the system.
BankScan AI for Real Estate Agents Using TurboTax
BankScan AI converts any bank statement PDF to CSV formatted for direct import into TurboTax. Convert bank statements to clean spreadsheets for buyer pre-qualification reviews, commission tracking, and escrow reconciliation.
The Real Estate Agents + TurboTax Workflow
Real estate agents review buyer bank statements to verify down payment funds and assess financial readiness for pre-qualification letters. They track commission checks from closings, reconcile escrow account activity, manage marketing expenses and MLS dues, and prepare Schedule C documentation for their tax preparer. Broker-agents must also reconcile their split with the brokerage.
Key terms you'll encounter: escrow account, commission split, closing statement, pre-qualification.
