Does it handle both residential and commercial?

Yes, the template supports both. Commercial features like CAM reconciliation can be used or ignored for residential properties.

Can tenants pay online?

Yes, tenant portal integration allows online rent payment via ACH or card. Payments auto-apply to tenant accounts.

How does CAM reconciliation work?

You track CAM expenses through the year. The system calculates each tenant's share based on their percentage. Year-end recon shows over/under and generates true-up charges or credits.

Does it track security deposits properly?

Yes, security deposits are tracked in trust with proper liability accounting. The system manages deposit collection, interest (where required), and refund processing.

Can it handle complex ownership structures?

Yes, properties can have multiple owners with different ownership percentages. Distributions calculate each owner's share based on the waterfall.

Does it integrate with property management software?

Yes, the template includes integration points for property management systems to sync tenant, lease, and charge data. It can work standalone or integrated.
