What counts as cleanup work

Everything it takes to get your books balanced

Before your books are fully up to date and balanced, there may be some cleanup work for our bookkeepers to do. Here is what that includes.

Getting current

Catch-up reconciliations

If your reconciliations have slipped, we work back through the months that were missed and bring every account current.

We make sure your books are properly maintained going forward and review anything from the past that might need fixing, including catch-up 3-way reconciliations for your trust accounts.

Finding the source of problems

Pre-existing financial diagnostics

Resolving pre-existing financial diagnostic issues is billed at $45 per hour.

Diagnostic work that is part of standard month-to-month bank reconciliations and within 2 months of current is treated as normal ongoing work, billed at our standard $34 per hour.

Recent issues found during ongoing reconciliations stay at the standard $34 per hour rate.

Complete cleanup

Balance audit

A balance audit is a full financial audit of your books, bank accounts, owners, tenants, and properties to identify the cause of issues.

Once we know what went wrong, your bookkeeper corrects it and gets your books balanced. This work is billed at $45 per hour.

What clients say

Property managers who got their books back on track

Our only regret about OJO is that we did not engage them sooner. Everyone is detail focused and conscientious. They communicate throughout the day, they take care of business promptly, and they are friendly and fun. Mostly, they care about things being right and our books being correct.

OJO Bookkeeping has no doubt been an absolute life saver for me and Fountain Management. The knowledge they bring to the table along with our personal go-to bookkeeper Feluz Campos is one of a kind.

OJO is great to work with. They get things done for us on Buildium and make sure everything is 3-way reconciled.
