For self-managing STR owners
Run short-term rental books without spreadsheet drag.
Import supported official Airbnb and Vrbo statements and connect supported bank feeds in a structured monthly-close workflow. Review financial results for the included properties and source coverage.
General accounting software treats short-term rentals like standard retail stores. It misses 3% Airbnb host fees, commingles guest cleaning fees with revenue, and leaves mixed supply runs uncategorized. Props Books brings supported source records, review, reconciliation, and monthly close into one workflow. If you are moving from manual tracking, read our step-by-step spreadsheet migration checklist.
- Gross bookings and 3% host fees decomposed
- Shared supply receipts split by door
- Mortgage principal, interest, and escrow separated
- Source-linked accountant package prepared for review
A month in the life
From guest bookings to reconciled books in four simple steps.
- Activity arrives
Plaid connects supported bank and card accounts. Supported official Airbnb and Vrbo statement imports retain available cleaning fee, tax, and platform commission components.
- You decide
Resolve open exceptions in the review queue: split shared hardware receipts across properties, confirm mortgage statement splits, and match refunds.
- The month closes
Reconcile operating accounts against bank statements. Close the period to ordinary posting changes; authorized reopening produces a revised close version.
- Read property results with the books behind them
Review cash P&L and direct cash flow for included properties, open supported report balances to inspect posted lines and linked source records, and hand your CPA a source-linked package for review.
Roxby connects supported bank and card accounts through Plaid.
Roxby imports supported official Airbnb and Vrbo CSV, XLS, and XLSX statement files.
Roxby accepts supported statement uploads and forwarded email attachments.
Exception triage & owner decisions
A focused queue for the decisions that require host judgment.
Software cannot know which cabin used the lumber bought at Home Depot, or how a personal card expense applies to the rental LLC. The Review Queue isolates these specific exceptions into a single list. Review the receipt image, tap the property, and post the entry.
Focus on the decisions that need you.
Finish the close with a visible path to done.
