You can use the Class Tracking feature in QuickBooks Online (QBO). This way, you can track each property as a Class and pull up Profit & Loss By Class all the time. Also, you have the option to assign expenses to a specific class/property. That way you have the visibility for both income by each property and the expenses that you're incurring for the properties.
This will be your Customer hierarchy for any QuickBooks for rentals:
Customer is the property
Customer: Customer is the actual apartment
Customer: Customer: Customer is the tenant
Plus, you can have additional levels if you have more than one building on a property or different portfolios (owners managed for) total of 5 inclusive levels.
First off, you'll need to create a beginning invoice for each tenant and memorize it. To get it in their hands via snail mail in a timely fashion. You can post it 10 days before the due date, normally the 1st of the month.
Then, require security deposits as paid on Sales Receipt rather than the first invoice. Also, avoid having the child customers bill with the parent, it might prohibit producing a statement for the tenant alone.

Hi there, @joe118.
If you've set up the tenants as customers, then you can record the rent income as invoices when you receive payments at a later date. Otherwise, you can create sales receipts when you receive their payments right away.
I've got you an article you can use to record transactions for rental properties: Property Management Company.
I'd still recommend consulting your accountant to ensure the accuracy of your financial reports.
Please let me know if you have other questions. I'll be around to help. Have a wonderful day.
As additional option, explore this app to help you manage your rental with Airbnb and integrate with QBO.

Hope it helps.

Very helpful. Thank you :-)... For one of the properties I am doing short-term rentals often via AirBNB. Any specific tips on how to handle invoice and payment for AirBNB use?

Thank you. Very helpful. Truly appreciate it!
One more thing. Do you think the QBO Self-Employed version will work for the approach recommended in this post? I have a QBO plus for my main business. But the profit margin on the rentals is low and don't see spending $840 per year on QBO Plus as a good fit.
Hello, @joe118.
I recommend exploring both products for you to check if this is available and decide what best works for you.
