Why the numbers never seem to match
Airbnb pays you after taking its fee, and some taxes are collected and sent in for you. Your tax forms want the full picture. The gap is normal, but it is confusing when you are doing it alone at 11 pm.
Payouts are net
The money that lands in your bank is after the host service fee. Schedule E generally starts from the gross rent, with fees shown as an expense. Your CPA can confirm how to treat each item.
Expenses live everywhere
Cleaners, supplies, utilities, repairs, software. They sit in bank apps, receipts and texts, and nothing says which Schedule E line each one belongs on.
Year-end panic
The 1099-K, the earnings report and your own records all show slightly different totals. Without a bridge, you lose hours trying to explain the difference.
What HostLedger does for you
Type your numbers in once. The sheet does the adding up and shows where everything lands.
Enter income
Paste or type your monthly gross bookings and the Airbnb fee. Net payout is worked out for you.
Pick a category
Each expense gets a simple dropdown that maps it to a Schedule E line, such as cleaning and maintenance, repairs, supplies or utilities.
Check the bridge
A reconciliation box shows bank deposits plus fees equals gross rent, so you can see at a glance that your records agree.
