Profile Description

I currently serve as a Virtual Assistant supporting a commercial real estate firm operating across Illinois and Wisconsin, specializing in managing the day-to-day financial operations for landlords. My primary focus is on customizing and streamlining QuickBooks for commercial property portfolios, tailoring setups with specific charts of accounts, classes, and locations to accurately track income and expenses per property unit. I oversee the creation and maintenance of tenant and vendor profiles, ensuring smooth tracking of leases, payments, and vendor invoices. 

Additionally, I automate recurring invoices for rent and other tenant charges, guaranteeing timely delivery according to lease terms. I also prepare comprehensive rent payment tracking spreadsheets and provide regular aging reports to the landlords, offering valuable insights and helping to manage delinquent accounts. 

My responsibilities include managing approximately 20 QuickBooks accounts—one for property management, which covers building expenses, and 19 individual property accounts for tenant rent collection. Those numbers do not include clients' other businesses like the loan business, farms business, investment business and telecom business. I categorize daily income and expenses and support property managers by auditing vendor statements to ensure accurate bill payments. 

In terms of financial oversight, I manage 28 cash cards, reconcile 15 bank loans, and oversee more than 15 credit cards. My role extends to monitoring cash flow and liabilities on a daily basis via detailed spreadsheets, ensuring accurate and up-to-date reporting. I also support the preparation of key financial statements, including profit and loss reports (standard and by class), balance sheets, and cash flow statements. My regular aging reports help the landlords stay on top of arrears.

Beyond bookkeeping, I handle the preparation and filing of 1099 and 1096 forms, track vendor records using Dropbox, and assist in organizing essential documents such as lease agreements, invoices, and tenant profiles. I also collaborate with the accountant to prepare depreciation schedules.

On top of my accounting and financial responsibilities, I assist with any ad-hoc tasks assigned by my employer. I am proficient in Microsoft Office, email management, and calendar coordination, ensuring smooth and efficient operations across all aspects of my role.
