Bookkeeper

Job Summary

Sands Real Estate and Property Management is looking for a tech-savvy Bookkeeper to manage the financial heartbeat of our growing portfolio. We specialize in both long-term annual rentals and high-turnover short-term rentals.

We operate a sophisticated tech stack involving QuickBooks Online (utilizing Class tracking), OwnerRez for our STR backend, and High Level for CRM. We need a professional who doesn’t just “enter data” but understands how to reconcile complex channel payouts and maintain clean property-level reporting for our owners.

Execute full-cycle bookkeeping in QuickBooks using Classes to separate annual vs. short-term rental performance.
Reconcile monthly payouts from OwnerRez, ensuring guest fees, taxes, and cleaning costs are allocated correctly.
Manage Trust Accounting for security deposits and owner distributions in compliance with state regulations.
Process accounts payable (utilities, vendor repairs, and recurring contracts) for individual properties.
Generate monthly, quarterly, and annual P&L reports for the management team and property owners.
Audit guest ledgers to ensure synchronization between the booking platform and the bank account.

Job Qualifications

QuickBooks Expert: Proven experience using Classes/Projects for multi-entity or property-level tracking.
STR Experience: Familiarity with Short-Term Rental accounting (payouts from Airbnb/VRBO/Direct).
Tech Proficiency: Experience with OwnerRez or similar Property Management Software (PMS) is highly preferred.
Real Estate Knowledge: Understanding of 1099s, owner statements, and management fee structures.
Organization: Ability to manage high-volume transactions with 100% accuracy.
