Buildium bank reconciliation service

Buildium bank reconciliation —
balanced every month, or we tell you exactly why not

We take your Buildium (a RealPage company) exports and your bank statements and deliver a completed three-way reconciliation with every discrepancy identified down to the record ID. Fixed monthly price, 48-hour turnaround.

Why Buildium reconciliations break

On Buildium the usual suspects are bank-side bulk transfers (owner distributions done in online banking with no matching register entries), receipts posted to the wrong property (which reconcile fine while corrupting owner balances), incorrect opening balances from migration, and deposits recorded in a different month than the bank shows them.

These failures share a trait: Buildium's own reconciliation screen can't see them, because each one involves something that happened outside the current reconciliation window — a prior period, another system, or the bank itself. Finding them requires re-deriving the balance independently, which is exactly what our engine does: every transaction matched, every balance recomputed, across 75 deterministic checks built from state audit manuals.

Common questions

Buildium says I'm reconciled but my owners' balances don't add up. How?

Buildium's reconciliation verifies the bank register against the bank feed. It does not verify that the sum of all owner and tenant ledgers equals the reconciled bank balance — that's the third leg of a three-way reconciliation, and it's where posting-to-wrong-property errors hide. We recompute that leg from scratch every month.

We do bulk owner distributions from online banking. Is that a problem?

It's the single most common source of unexplained differences we see on Buildium: the transfer happens at the bank but no matching register entries exist, or one aggregate entry covers dozens of owners. We match bank-side bulk transfers against ledger-side distributions and flag every gap.

What exports do you need?

Three, about ten minutes: general ledger, bank register, and your trust account bank statement. Or read-only access once, and no monthly exports at all.

Can this replace our bookkeeper?

For the reconciliation and month-end close, yes — that's the part software plus our engine does better than manual work. Judgment calls (approving unusual entries, owner communication) stay with your team, which is why the service costs a fraction of a hire.
