Adding Income or Expenses

The financials section of the application is where you will find all income and expenses associated with your portfolio. Recurring rental payments will be found here along with other income and every expense from mortgages to letting fees.

In order to get started with the financial sections, getting to know how to add an income or expense is vital. If you’re looking to find a guide on how to edit an income/expense it can be found here or if you are looking for a guide on how to set up recurring payments this can be found here.
