April John Ponce

With over four years of hands-on experience as a bookkeeper/accountant in U.S. property management, I have developed a strong foundation in financial operations specific to the real estate industry. I have worked with both residential and commercial properties, supporting property managers and owners by ensuring accurate, timely, and compliant financial management.

My responsibilities have included full-cycle bookkeeping, recording and categorizing daily transactions, maintaining the general ledger, reconciling bank and trust accounts, and managing accounts payable and receivable. I am skilled in preparing monthly and year-end financial reports, owner statements, cash flow summaries, and budget vs. actuals to help guide financial decision-making.

I am well-versed in U.S. trust accounting requirements and state-specific regulations, especially related to handling security deposits, rental income, and operating accounts. I’ve ensured all financial practices align with legal standards and internal controls. I have also supported external audits and tax preparations by maintaining clean, organized, and fully documented records.

I’ve worked extensively with industry-standard software, including AppFolio, Buildium, and QuickBooks, both online and desktop versions. My experience includes setting up and managing recurring charges, owner distributions, 1099 filing, tenant billing, and vendor payments. I am comfortable troubleshooting discrepancies, resolving billing or payment issues, and maintaining communication with property managers, tenants, and vendors to support efficient operations.
