AppFolio bookkeeping

Outsourced AppFolio bookkeeping, run for you

You run properties in AppFolio — but the books are a month behind, owner statements go out late, and reconciliations pile up. DaxHive runs your AppFolio bookkeeping for you, inside your own account, so your numbers stay clean, current and tax-ready — and you get your time back. Built for U.S. property managers and real estate investors.

What we handle inside AppFolio

We run the full monthly bookkeeping cycle in your AppFolio instance — the recurring work that keeps ownership, investors and the taxman happy:

  • Bank, operating & trust/escrow reconciliations
  • Owner statements & distributions, on time
  • Per-property & per-entity general ledger
  • Tenant / lease ledgers & delinquencies
  • AP, AR & vendor bill coding
  • Monthly close & financial reporting
  • 1099 tracking & tax-ready books
  • Catch-up & cleanup of prior months

Why AppFolio books fall behind

AppFolio is powerful, but the bookkeeping still has to be done right — and it's usually the first thing that slips when you're busy running properties. The issues we see most:

  • GL accounts mis-mapped at setup, so the financials never quite tie out
  • Trust / escrow accounts left unreconciled — a real compliance risk
  • Security deposits booked as income; owner draws miscoded
  • Reconciliations skipped for months, turning into a year-end scramble

How DaxHive runs your AppFolio books

DaxHive is Back Office as a Subscription — a senior bookkeeping specialist, amplified by AI, working inside your AppFolio account on a flat monthly fee. AI does the groundwork (categorization, matching, first-pass reconciliation); an experienced human owns and signs off on every close. Nothing ships without review. We work alongside your existing CPA, in your existing software, with least-privilege access and an NDA on request.

  • Your AppFolio account, your data — we work in it, you own it
  • Clean, current books every month — not a year-end surprise
  • Owner statements and reports you can actually trust
  • Month-to-month — scale or pause anytime, no long contracts

What does AppFolio bookkeeping cost?

Bookkeeping is available on its own, from $399/mo — or bundle your entire back office and it's often cheaper than hiring even one full-time role.

AppFolio bookkeeping — FAQ

Do you work inside my own AppFolio account?

Yes. We work directly in your AppFolio instance using least-privilege access — you keep full ownership of your account and data, and we'll sign an NDA on request. Nothing is migrated; we simply run the books where your properties already live.

Do you handle AppFolio bank and trust-account reconciliations?

Yes — monthly bank, operating and trust/escrow reconciliations are core to what we do, so your ledgers tie out and your owner statements are accurate. We handle the bookkeeping and reconciliation; your broker and CPA retain responsibility for regulatory trust-accounting compliance.

Can you clean up or catch up messy AppFolio books?

Yes. Catch-up and cleanup is one of the most common reasons owners come to us — mis-mapped GL accounts, unreconciled months, deposits booked as income, or owner draws miscoded. We get the books current and accurate, then keep them that way each month.

Can you work alongside my existing CPA?

Yes. We keep clean, tax-ready books year-round and hand off to your CPA at filing time — or, if you need it, tax filing is available through our network of licensed CPA/EA partners. DaxHive does not itself provide tax or legal advice.

How much does outsourced AppFolio bookkeeping cost?

Bookkeeping starts from $399/mo as a standalone service. Or run everything — marketing, tech, bookkeeping, tax, a fractional CFO and COO, and HR — on the all-in MATRIX plan at $3,000/mo. Month-to-month, cancel anytime.

Do you only work in AppFolio?

No — AppFolio is one of several real-estate platforms we work in, alongside Yardi, Buildium, Rent Manager and QuickBooks Online. We meet you in the software you already use.
