Where do I enter cost for a rental property?

Hello there, mbryant1. You can add rental and lease transactions to QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE) by manually entering them, especially for cash transactions or if your bank accounts are not connected. 

 

Here’s how to add a transaction:

 

  1. Log in to your QBSE account.
  2. Navigate to the Transactions menu on the left panel and click on Add Transaction.
  3. Enter the amount of your earnings and add a description to detail the source of your earnings.
  4. Choose the appropriate category, such as rental and Lease, from the dropdown menu.
  5. Click Save to keep the transaction.
