Zoho Books offers a free plan and six paid plans. The free plan offers features like adding one user and one accountant, client management tools, a client portal, online and offline payment processing, automatic payment reminders, expense and mileage tracking, invoice tools, core tax calculations and reporting, etc. The paid plans add features like inviting more users, paying invoices, assigning custom roles, managing timesheets, setting up automation rules, and more.
While Zoho Books doesn't offer many real estate-specific tools, its own integration apps further enhance its ability to serve real estate professionals. Useful real estate integrations include Zoho Sign (e-signature capabilities and encryption for quotes and invoices), Zoho Expense (travel and other expense management), Zoho People (employee hourly billing), and Zoho CRM (contact management), each of which offers unique value to real estate professionals.
For example, Zoho CRM integrates with Zoho Books to allow real estate professionals to add contacts and create profiles for each. Users can track their clients' or tenants' purchasing patterns, payment details, credit history, and more. Invoices can then be automatically sent to tenants or clients from the platform.
