How to Enter Cash Purchase Using a Silent Private Lender

Posted on By Mike Butler

QUESTION from Stacey:
 
Hi Mike,
 
I’ve watched every video that I have access to, but I am still unclear on how to put in my private loan balances. 
 
For example, I purchased a property last year. 

I borrowed money from a private lender, put that in my account and then paid cash at closing. 
 
I entered the closing statement as a check.
 
Where do I enter the $50,000 loan I’m paying on every month? (I memorized a check I can send every month, but I don’t know where to put the balance of the loan.)
 
If I could have help with one of these properties, 
then I am hopeful  I could input the rest of them correctly. 
 
Please advise! Thanks!

QuickBooks Pro – Buying Non-Performing Mortgages

Posted on By Mike Butler 2 Comments on QuickBooks Pro – Buying Non-Performing Mortgages

QUESTION from Joseph:

We are creating a investment syndication for buying and working out non-performing mortgages in an LLC entity.

Each member will require a capital account for their investment dollars and be able to receive pro-rata shares of profits, return of capital and losses (if any).

Will the Investor Books software support the bookkeeping for the syndication?

Thanks,

Joseph

QuickBooks Real Estate – Buying 3 Properties On One HUD 1 Settlement

Posted on By Mike Butler 1 Comment on QuickBooks Real Estate – Buying 3 Properties On One HUD 1 Settlement

QUESTION from Kyle:

Hi Mike,

Love the software still and have a unique question.
 
I just purchased 3 properties from the same seller and we did it all on one HUD. I know I need to enter the HUD exactly as I received it, but the question is I need to separate the properties because we are going to be selling them separately and splitting the profit on each one.
 
Should I just enter the HUD as it is, then make separate accounts for each properties so they show up separately for when we sell them and have to enter a selling HUD?
 
Obviously the HUD we used to purchase the 3 properties will have a big balance on it even after we sell 1 property. It seems it may be tricky to balance this all out.
 
Hope I confused you with this. Thanks.
 
Kind Regards,
Kyle J. Weimer

QuickBooks for Real Estate – Wholesale Deal

Posted on By Mike Butler

QUESTION from Kyle:

Hi Mike,

Love IBP!! (Investor Books Pro System)

I’ve been doing some co-wholesaleing deals where as I receive a 30% check of our NET wholesale fee.

How would you prefer to enter that into IBP beings that I don’t have any closing statements or anything?

Which label/class would you put on it so it records it as profit correctly?

Thank you sir.

Regards,

Kyle Weimer
