Historical Income Tracking

Frequently asked questions

How does historical income tracking work in IONROI?

You can record historical rent periods by entering a start date, end date, and total rental income received during that period. IONROI pro-rates these records into the correct monthly analytics windows automatically, so a two-year historical rental record is distributed accurately across 24 monthly periods rather than being counted as a lump sum in the month you entered it. Other income types like parking fees and service charge recoveries can also be recorded with specific dates.

Which IONROI plan includes historical income tracking?

Historical income recording is available on Pro (AED 99/month) and Enterprise (AED 299/month) plans. It is a Pro-tier feature because it feeds into the all-time ROI calculations in the analytics module, which also requires Pro or above. Basic plan users can track income from the point they start using IONROI.

Why does historical income matter for property investment ROI calculations?

If you have owned a property for five years but only started using portfolio software recently, ignoring the first four years of rental income will dramatically understate your all-time ROI. True investment performance measurement requires a complete income picture, which is especially important when comparing properties you have held for different lengths of time or when presenting portfolio performance to partners or lenders.

How does IONROI's historical income feature compare to reconstructing records in a spreadsheet?

Reconstructing historical income in a spreadsheet means allocating past rental figures to monthly rows manually, then writing formulas that combine historical and current data without double-counting. IONROI handles the pro-rating automatically using date-range overlap calculations, so you enter a single record for a two-year period and the system places the right proportional income into each monthly analytics window without any manual distribution work.
