## Shortlist

### 1. TurboTenant

US landlord software for posting rentals, screening, leases and online rent, free with renter-paid fees.

**Where it improves on TenantCloud:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Renters pay the payment fees: on the Free plan a bank transfer costs the renter $2 and a card 3.49%, while the renter pricing tab for Pro landlords shows bank transfers free and cards still 3.49%.](https://www.turbotenant.com/pricing/)
- [What your tenants can be charged: yes — The pricing page publishes every renter charge: a $55 screening fee on the Free plan ($45 where the landlord pays for Pro), $2 per bank transfer, 3.49% by card, and optional rent reporting at $4.99 a month.](https://www.turbotenant.com/pricing/)
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the $12.42 and $16.58 headline figures are the annual prices divided by twelve, billed annually at $149 and $199, and no promotion or end date is published.](https://www.turbotenant.com/premium/)

**Trade-offs against TenantCloud:**
- [Cost for 25 units a month: partial — $33.25 a month on Pro (11-30 units) for 25 units. Every unit counts, vacant or let, unless the vendor bills only occupied units. Sold on annual billing only: monthly equivalent shown. Pro (1-10 units) ($16.58) includes 10 units; these units need 25, and past the allowance you are moved to the next plan.](https://www.turbotenant.com/pricing/)
- [Cost for 5 units a month: partial — $16.58 a month on Pro (1-10 units) for 5 units. Every unit counts, vacant or let, unless the vendor bills only occupied units. Sold on annual billing only: monthly equivalent shown.](https://www.turbotenant.com/pricing/)
- [Cost for 50 units a month: partial — $58.25 a month on Pro (31-60 units) for 50 units. Every unit counts, vacant or let, unless the vendor bills only occupied units. Sold on annual billing only: monthly equivalent shown. Pro (1-10 units) ($16.58) includes 10 units; these units need 50, and past the allowance you are moved to the next plan. Pro (11-30 units) ($33.25) includes 30 units; these units need 50, and past the allowance you are moved to the next plan.](https://www.turbotenant.com/pricing/)

### 2. Rentec Direct

Property management software for landlords and small managers, priced per unit with free rent payments by bank transfer.

**Where it improves on TenantCloud:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Pro and the property manager edition include one free incoming bank transfer per active property each month, with extra payments at $0.50; Starter pays $2.00 a payment. Cards run 3.50% on Starter and 2.95% on Pro and the property manager edition, and the vendor lets you choose whether you or the tenant pays the card fee.](https://www.rentecdirect.com/pricing)
- [What your tenants can be charged: yes — On the larger editions a tenant can be charged the eighteen dollar screening report if you pass it on; twelve rent payments by bank transfer and the credit reporting are free to them.](https://www.rentecdirect.com/tenant-screening)
- [Minimum units or minimum fee: partial — No minimum number of rental units is required, but Pro and the property manager edition carry a $50 monthly floor, so a portfolio under 25 units on Pro or 20 on the property manager edition pays that floor in full; Starter has no floor beyond its flat $25.](https://www.rentecdirect.com/pricing-transparency)

**Trade-offs against TenantCloud:**
- [Free plan or trial: no — There is no standing free plan; the vendor says so plainly and offers a two-week trial of any edition instead.](https://www.rentecdirect.com/pricing)

### 3. DoorLoop

AI agents answer tenants, run repairs and renewals inside the same system holding your leases and books.

**Where it improves on TenantCloud:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Each rent payment by bank transfer costs $1.50 on the entry plan and nothing on the two dearer plans; the vendor does not publish a card rate, and a convenience fee can be added for the tenant instead.](https://www.doorloop.com/faq)
- [Minimum units or minimum fee: yes — Every plan carries a monthly floor, from $239 a month paying month to month on the entry plan, so a landlord with a handful of units pays that whole amount rather than the per-unit rate.](https://www.doorloop.com/pricing)
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the price the page opens on is the yearly-billed rate, $2.50 a unit with a $199 floor, while paying month to month costs $3.00 a unit with a $239 floor.](https://www.doorloop.com/pricing)

**Trade-offs against TenantCloud:**
- [Unit caps: no — No plan caps the number of units: units are billed as you add them, the entry plan charges a lower rate above 100 units, and the vendor says units added mid-month are charged pro rata.](https://www.doorloop.com/pricing)
- [Renters insurance: partial — Tenants can get a quote and buy renters insurance inside their portal, and the vendor says this is a US-only service; nothing we read says you can compel cover or log proof of an outside policy.](https://www.doorloop.com/pricing)
- [Free plan or trial: no — There is no standing free plan: all three published plans carry a per-unit price and a monthly floor, and the only no-cost way in is a trial you start with an email address.](https://www.doorloop.com/pricing)

### 4. Yardi Breeze

Cloud property management software from Yardi for small and mid-sized residential and commercial portfolios.

**Where it improves on TenantCloud:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Bank transfer rent payments are $0.00 when Yardi is the primary processor and cards are enabled, otherwise $0.95; credit cards cost 2.95% and card service fees default to the tenant.](https://resources.yardi.com/legal/breeze/tou/)
- [Minimum units or minimum fee: yes — No minimum unit count, but a monthly minimum applies in full to small portfolios: $100 residential, $200 commercial, $400 for Breeze Premier.](https://www.yardibreeze.com/faq/)
- [Setup or onboarding fee: no — The vendor states there are no setup, onboarding, training or data-conversion charges, and nothing is paid up front to begin using Breeze.](https://www.yardibreeze.com/faq/)

**Trade-offs against TenantCloud:**
- [Unit caps: no — Plans do not cap units; billing simply follows the units managed each month, with an optional upgrade path to Premier or Voyager for more advanced needs.](https://www.yardibreeze.com/faq/)
- [Leases signed online: partial — Leases can be executed online with e-signatures through RentCafe, but online lease execution and state-based lease documents are flagged as add-ons carrying additional fees.](https://www.yardibreeze.com/residential-features/)
- [Renters insurance: partial — Renters insurance is an optional add-on with additional fees; the landlord can require integrated or third-party cover and residents enrol through the leasing workflow.](https://www.yardibreeze.com/residential-features/)

### 5. Landlord Studio

Rental listings, screening, rent collection and landlord bookkeeping in one app, free for up to three units.

**Where it improves on TenantCloud:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Each rent payment by bank transfer costs a flat $2.50 and the vendor lets you decide whether you or the tenant carries it; a card payment costs 3.49% of the rent and the page says the tenant pays that one, with no choice offered.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/features/online-rent-collection)
- [What your tenants can be charged: yes — A tenant can be charged the screening report at $45 on Pro or $55 on Go, plus the $2.50 on each rent payment by bank transfer whenever the landlord passes that fee on, or 3.49% of the rent for every card payment; the vendor publishes no required rent-reporting charge on these pages.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/features/tenant-screening)
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the pricing page opens with the Annually tab already selected, so the first figure a buyer sees for Pro is $12.00 a month, billed as $144 a year; the regular month-to-month price is $15.00 and Pro Plus is $35.00 rather than $28.00.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/pricing)

**Trade-offs against TenantCloud:**
- [Leases signed online: partial — Leases, addendums and disclosures can be uploaded and signed online by tenants and co-signers; the vendor describes sending your own document rather than building one from a template inside the product.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/features/e-sign)
- [Autopay and reminders: partial — Tenants can switch on autopay on any plan, but the automated rent reminders that chase an unpaid month are listed only on the paid Pro plans.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/pricing)
- [Rent receipts: partial — Tenants see their own payment history and what is due next in the portal, and the landlord can send payment receipts; the vendor does not describe an automatic receipt for each payment.](https://www.landlordstudio.com/features/online-rent-collection)

### 6. Innago

Free rental management software for small landlords, paid for by tenant payment and screening fees.

**Where it improves on TenantCloud:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — A rent payment straight from a bank account costs a flat $2 and a card payment costs 2.99% of the rent; the tenant pays by default, but the landlord can choose to cover it instead.](https://innago.com/faq/)
- [What your tenants can be charged: yes — A tenant's first year runs about $54 to $59: a screening report at $30 to $35 plus twelve rent payments from a bank account at $2 each, with $10 more if you also order income verification.](https://innago.com/faq/)
- [Setup or onboarding fee: no — The pricing page states there is no setup fee, and the FAQ repeats that there are no setup costs for getting started or importing a portfolio.](https://innago.com/pricing/)

**Trade-offs against TenantCloud:**
- [Unit caps: no — There are no plans to be moved between, so adding a unit never changes the price; the vendor says it stays free however many units you add.](https://innago.com/faq/)
- [Getting your data out: partial — The vendor says your data is yours and names leases, payment histories and financial reports as downloadable, but describes it as downloading documents rather than one full export of everything.](https://innago.com/faq/)

### 7. Baselane

Landlord banking, rent collection and bookkeeping for rental property owners in one account.

**Where it improves on TenantCloud:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — A rent payment by bank transfer costs $2 and the landlord may absorb it or pass it to the tenant; cards cost the tenant 3.49%, and the fee table shows the transfer fee waived when rent lands in a Baselane account.](https://www.baselane.com/pricing)
- [What your tenants can be charged: yes — The pricing page prints every tenant-side charge in one block: screening from $24.99 paid by the applicant, $2 to $5 for a rent payment by bank transfer, 3.49% on cards, and optional rent reporting at $5 a month.](https://www.baselane.com/pricing)
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the only paid figure on the page, Smart at $20 a month, is explicitly quoted on annual billing, and the page publishes no month-to-month rate for it; Core carries no promotion at all.](https://www.baselane.com/pricing)

**Trade-offs against TenantCloud:**
- [Unit caps: no — Neither plan caps properties or units: the vendor says rent collection covers multiple properties and units and the plan cards price by feature set, not by how many rentals are attached.](https://www.baselane.com/rent-collection)
- [Work orders to contractors: partial — You can store contractor payment details and pay them by bank transfer, wire or posted cheque from the banking side, but the vendor describes no work order you can raise, assign or close against a job.](https://www.baselane.com/landlord-banking)
- [Renters insurance: partial — Renters insurance is offered to tenants through the renter side of the product, but the vendor's pages do not say a landlord can require it or see proof of a policy in the dashboard.](https://www.baselane.com/renters)

### 8. Hemlane

Rental management software with optional 24/7 repair coordination and leasing help, priced per unit.

**Where it improves on TenantCloud:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Bank-to-bank rent payments carry no fee on the paid plans, while debit and credit card payments cost 3%; the page does not say who is charged the 3%.](https://www.hemlane.com/pricing/)
- [Minimum units or minimum fee: yes — There is no minimum number of units, but every paid plan carries a $34 monthly platform fee that a one-unit landlord pays in full.](https://www.hemlane.com/pricing/)
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the pricing page opens with annual billing already selected, so Basic first reads $30 a month; paying month to month it is $36.50 a month.](https://www.hemlane.com/pricing/)

**Trade-offs against TenantCloud:**
- [Unit caps: no — No plan caps units: the calculator adds the same per-unit price for each rental, so growing a portfolio never forces a jump to a dearer plan.](https://www.hemlane.com/pricing/)
- [Work orders to contractors: partial — Work orders go to your own contractors on any software plan, but invoicing and paying them from the job needs the Essential service plan.](https://www.hemlane.com/pricing/)

### 9. Stessa

Free rental bookkeeping, banking, leasing and rent collection for US residential landlords.

**Where it improves on TenantCloud:**
- [Rent payment fees: yes — Each rent payment by bank transfer into a Stessa cash management account is free; paid into your own outside bank it costs $2, and card payments cost 3% of the rent, with the tenant paying in every case.](https://support.stessa.com/en/articles/12092570-stessa-rent-payment-convenience-fee-faqs)
- [What your tenants can be charged: yes — A tenant pays nothing for twelve rent payments by bank transfer into a Stessa cash management account, so the first-year cost can be the screening alone, from $29 for a credit report to $49 for the full package where the landlord passes it on.](https://www.stessa.com/leasing/)
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the plan cards lead with $12 and $28 a month paid annually and print the month-to-month rates of $15 and $35 beside them, with 20% off for annual billing rather than a time-limited promotion.](https://www.stessa.com/pricing/)

**Trade-offs against TenantCloud:**
- [Unit caps: no — No plan caps properties, leases or units, so adding a rental never pushes you onto a dearer plan; the paid plans differ on reports, signing and support instead.](https://www.stessa.com/pricing/)
- [Leases signed online: partial — Leases are generated from templates and sent for signature inside Stessa, but signing is free only from the Manage plan up, which allows one signature a month against seven on Pro, and the free plan has none.](https://www.stessa.com/pricing/)
- [Security deposits: partial — Deposits are tracked as transactions in a security deposit category and applied through the tenant ledger, but the vendor states it cannot pay a deposit back: refunds must be made outside Stessa.](https://support.stessa.com/en/articles/11954577-how-to-record-and-apply-a-security-deposit-in-stessa)
