@Ramon Flores I understand keeping it separate from your personal account. Just curious If other investors put all of it in one account for everything or if they have separate accounts for reparis, CapEx, vacancy etc?

Dumb question but I am new to this and wanted to get some feedback. When doing a rental property analysis I have items such as repairs, CapEX, and Vacancy. When you actually collect the rent and pay the monthly expenses associated are you actually separating these three categories out into separate bank accounts? Or after expenses are you putting everything that is left over in your business checking account and just keeping a ledger on the side with the funds earmarked?

From an accounting perspective it would make sense to have accounts set aside for these items but didn't know if it was worth the trouble of having so many accounts.

Any guidance is much appreciated.
