1. Rentra
Rentra is our product. We've tried to be fair about where others fit better.
Best for: Landlords who want bank-synced books, Schedule E, and AI help with tenants without moving up a plan.
Pricing: $5 per unit per month with a $25 monthly minimum, or 20% off billed annually. Every feature is included, there is no contract, and the 14-day trial needs no card to start (as of October 2026).
Strengths
- Plaid bank sync with AI categorization, Schedule E reports, depreciation with Form 4562, and 1099 tracking.
- Your own SMS number for your rentals. On Autopilot Advanced, AI answers tenant texts from the lease and rent ledger.
- Tenants text in repairs, photos included. AI triages them and texts your vendors, and nothing is booked until you approve it.
- Costs less than TenantCloud Pro billed monthly ($60) for 11 units or fewer.
Limitations
- Costs more than TenantCloud Starter at any size, and more than Pro billed monthly from 13 units up.
- No tenant screening (it is on the roadmap), listings, showings, or eviction tools. Single user only. There is no team access.
