Available for payment
Available for payment is how much money a property has to disburse to a rental owner as an owner draw.
Unlike the ending cash balance, cash available for payment does consider a property reserve and liabilities held (ie security deposits or prepaid rent). The total amount of money that can be paid to a rental owner as a draw may be less than the ending cash.
The ending cash balance is how much money a property has to pay expenses.
Miscellaneous
The rental owner statement runs on a cash basis.
- The beginning cash balance is the amount owed to/from the rental owner, less tenant liabilities and property reserves, as of the day before the date range of the report. For example, if the report has a date range of July 1 through July 31, then the beginning balance is as of June 30.
- The beginning balance will represent a number other than $0 if money is held back for a property reserve, there are tenant liabilities (deposits), or if the reporting cycle is different than when rental owner distributions are made. For example, if rental owners are paid on the 14th of each month, a report run from the 1st through the 31st might not show a $0 beginning balance.
