QuickBooks was built for accountants. We were built for the operator.
QuickBooks asks you to set up "classes" and remember to tag every transaction. PayStream Pro tags it automatically based on the property you're scanning a receipt from.
Tap one button and get a clean Schedule E worksheet by property — depreciation, repairs, mileage, the works. Hand it to your CPA, or upload it to TurboTax / FreeTaxUSA.
Snap a Home Depot receipt, pick the property, done — before you're back in the parking lot. No more shoebox reconciliation in March.
Mileage tracking and bank reconciliation are included — QuickBooks charges $50–$120/mo extra for those.
Add your properties, connect your bank, and you're done. No accountant required, no class hierarchy to design, no chart-of-accounts wizard.
256-bit encryption. Bank connections via Plaid. Payments via Stripe. We never store your card numbers or banking credentials.
Yes. Our Schedule E export produces a per-property worksheet plus a categorized expense ledger that any CPA, TurboTax, or FreeTaxUSA workflow accepts. We export to CSV, PDF, and QBO-compatible IIF if your CPA insists.
Yes — import a QBO file or a CSV bank export and we'll auto-categorize transactions by property based on bank memo and amount patterns. Most landlords are fully migrated in under 10 minutes.
Upgrade to Premium ($75/mo) for unlimited properties, multi-user access, and advanced reporting. There's no per-door fee at any tier.
For most landlords, yes. QuickBooks Plus ($115/mo) plus mileage and payments add-ons runs $170+/mo. PayStream Pro Landlord is $49/mo flat with everything included.
