• Enter scanned tenant checks into AppFolio daily, applying each receipt to the correct tenant, lease, and property ledger. • Reconcile the batch of scanned check images against recorded payments to confirm every check is captured once, with the correct amount and date. • Verify recorded receipts tie out to bank deposit totals; flag any over/short or missing items. • Allocate receipts across rent, late fees, utilities, and other charges per lease and company policy; handle partial and prepaid payments correctly. • Research and resolve unidentified or misapplied payments, NSF/returned checks, and duplicate entries; escalate unclear items to the AR Manager with a clear summary. • Keep tenant ledger balances accurate, post adjustments and reversals when approved, and ensure aging is correct. • Reconcile the security deposit against the final ledger—prorated rent, unpaid charges, damages, and RUBS (Ratio Utility Billing System) move-out estimates—so utility allocations are captured rather than written off. • Prepare and process refunds within statutory deadlines, with proper itemization and documentation. • Open and track receivables where a balance is owed after the deposit is applied, maintaining a live tracker capturing tenant, property, amount, age, and status. • Follow a defined escalation path for owed balances: tenant portal → payment plan → Stripe payment link → collections agency → small claims, documenting each step and timeline. • Record refunds, applied deposits, write-offs, and recoveries in AppFolio and the receivables tracker so balances, the GL, and aging stay accurate and reconciled. • Prepare daily/weekly receipt summaries, batch logs, and AR aging snapshots for the onshore team. • Maintain clear documentation and flag discrepancies or issues proactively to the AR Manager/Controller.
