You know what each property earns.
Net income is what you collected minus the expenses, property by property. You look at it for this year, the last 12 months or the year before.
Expenses, net income and yearly summary
You record each property’s expenses as they come in. Plinthos puts them next to the rent you’ve collected and shows you what each apartment really earns. At the end of the year you download the summary for your accountant.

How it works.
- Step 1
You record the expense when it comes in.
You choose the property and the category, enter the amount and the date, and attach the invoice or receipt. From your computer or your phone, even straight from a maintenance report you’ve just closed.
- Step 2
Plinthos counts it in its category.
On the Expenses page you see the period total, how much is spent on building fees, taxes, maintenance and insurance, and your expenses month by month. For one property or for all of them together.
- Step 3
You see what each property earns.
In Statistics Plinthos subtracts the expenses from the rent collected and gives you the net income, with the margin. Next to it you find estimated and actual income, the collection rate and overdue rent, for the period you choose.
- Step 4
At the end of the year you download the summary.
You pick the year and Plinthos prepares a cash-basis summary, property by property: rent collected, bill reimbursements, expenses and net. As a PDF to read, and as an Excel file with every payment and every expense in detail. Your accountant gets one complete summary.
What you get out of it.
You don’t lose a receipt.
Invoices and receipts stay attached to their expense. When your accountant asks for them, you know where they are.
Your accountant gets one complete summary.
The yearly summary has each property’s rent collected, reimbursements, expenses and net, with the detail line by line.
You save time at the end of the year.
You confirmed the rent during the year and recorded the expenses as they came in. The summary puts them together.
What’s included.
- Eight expense categories: maintenance, building fees, utilities, taxes, insurance, furniture, agency fees, other.
- Invoice or receipt attached to each expense, as a photo or PDF.
- An expense can be recorded straight from a closed maintenance report, already linked to its property.
- Expenses page with the period total, the split by category and expenses month by month.
- Statistics for one property or for all: estimated and actual income, collection rate, overdue rent, net income with the margin, payment punctuality and occupancy.
- Split bills kept out of your expenses, because tenants reimburse them. In the summary the reimbursements sit in their own column. Utility bill splitting →
- Cash-basis yearly summary, as PDF and Excel: it counts payments by the date they were confirmed as paid, within the calendar year. It is an informative document, not a tax filing.

Frequently asked questions.
Is the yearly summary a tax return?
No. It’s an informative document built from the data you entered, and it says so on every page. It gives you and your accountant an organized starting point; you or your accountant file the tax return as before.
What does it mean that the summary is cash-basis?
It counts the rent and reimbursements collected in the year, by the date of the confirmed payment. December rent paid in January belongs to the new year.
Does Plinthos calculate my rental tax?
No. Plinthos gives you income, expenses and net income per property; how they are taxed depends on your country and your situation, and that’s for you and your accountant.
Why aren’t bills counted as expenses?
Because they aren’t your cost: you pay them and the tenants reimburse their share. Counting them as expenses would lower your net income on paper. The reimbursements still appear in the summary, in their own column.
