Move Out Statement in Management Software
A frequently asked owner question is why you may have a charge of management fee, Resident Benefit program, etc when a resident of yours moved out.
When a tenant moves out, the following happens in Appfolio when the move out procedure is done:
EXAMPLE:
- The Security Deposit amount moves from the SD bank account into the Rent Escrow bank account and you see the deposit on your statement:
07/18/2023 | All 3 Realty LLC | Receipt | Security Deposits Clearing - (PURPLE) (Built in 1960) : Security Deposit Transfer | 995.00 |
- If the tenant receives the full or partial amount refunded, you would see a check issued to the tenant on your statement for the $995 and that amount would come out of the balance on the statement
- Since your tenant left with UNPAID charges, Appfolio then takes the $995 SD and starts to credit the charges starting with oldest charges first (see attached report). In this case Appfolio credited the following:
- $870 Rent Income
- $100 late fee
- $25 RBP
- Then Appfolio is programmed that when you receive rent income the 8% mgmt fee is charged and the late fee & RBP is charged to pay out to A3R
This is why you have the management fee, late fee and RBP charges on your statement.
