Buildium bookkeeping questions

APM Help does. We are an official Buildium partner, and we have served 1,000+ property management clients. Our Buildium team handles payables, receivables, daily bank reconciliations and trust accounting with three-way reconciliation inside your Buildium account, and every client gets a dedicated account manager backed by a team of bookkeepers. Our clients have a 100% pass rate on trust account audits since 2017.

Yes. We regularly onboard property managers from other providers, including taking over books mid-year and cleaning up any backlog. Start with a free database review of your Buildium account: you get a written action plan covering what's wrong, what to fix first, and whether you need a cleanup, and the plan is yours to keep whether or not you hire us.

On average a cleanup takes anywhere between 2 and 4 weeks, but it is completely dependent on the scope of work and how quickly your team can answer our consultants' questions. We scope the cleanup during a free database review of your Buildium account, so the scope reflects what is actually wrong rather than a guess.

Yes. We work inside your own Buildium account, not a copy of it. Most clients set us up as a dedicated user that you control, so everything we do is trackable and access is easy to revoke. We walk you through the setup when you book, and it takes a few minutes.

Yes. APM Help is an official partner of both AppFolio and Buildium. Our Buildium team works in the software every day and includes people who previously worked at the property management software companies.
