Feature-by-feature breakdown
No spin. Just facts.
Stessa is a financial tracker. Rentra is a property manager.
Stessa excels at one thing: helping real estate investors track financial performance across their portfolio. But it's not property management software—no maintenance system, no tenant portal, no automated workflows. If you need both financial tracking and day-to-day management, Rentra does both in one place.
Common questions
Should I use Stessa for financials and something else for management?
You could, but why juggle two systems? Rentra includes financial reporting with Schedule E exports, expense tracking, and cashflow forecasting. Unless you need Stessa's advanced portfolio analytics or net worth tracking, Rentra covers the financial basics while also managing your properties.
Is Stessa really free?
The basic tier is genuinely free and useful for expense tracking. But rent collection goes through a partner with fees, and advanced features require Stessa Pro at $20/month. At that price point, Rentra manages more properties with more features.
