Keeping track and monitoring your residential real estate portfolio is vital for every investor and one of the largest companies that helps landlords manage their rentals is Appfolio. The real estate software allows landlords to screen their tenants, collect rent, and other vital services landlords require to manage their properties.

Although Appfolio is used by countless landlords in the United States, it does come at an incredibly steep cost. The cheapest package Appfolio has a limit of just 50 units and landlords are required to spend a minimum of $280 per month on the platform, even if they have just 5 units to manage. The basic package that Appfolio offers is quite bare when compared to other companies and smaller landlords are forced to pay much higher management costs on a per-unit basis than other companies.

The problem with such a pricing model is the vast majority of DIY landlords in the United States do not manage 50 units or more. In fact, the average landlord is only managing 5 units and they typically self-manage. This would equate to almost a managing cost of $100 per unit when using the basic Appfolio package. However, there is a rising alternative to Appfolio and Rezedent is the answer.

Unlike Appfolio, Rezedent puts the landlord first, especially when it comes to its introduction package. Landlords can try Rezedent for free for up to a month. After the free trial is over, they have the option to onboard all of their properties and units at a starting cost of just $10 per month with the minimum unit count being 1 unit and the maximum number of units are unlimited at a cost of $1/unit over 10 units ($15 for 15 units and so on). Rezedent’s basic package essentially allows landlords to manage all of their units at a small fraction of what Appfolio charges their clients.

Although Rezedent is significantly cheaper than Appfolio, there are no compromises. Rezedent allows landlords to collect rent, manage units, and maintenance requests, screen tenants, and manage all of their communication on one platform. The company has even partnered with several companies to help landlords find perfect tenants to fill their units by working with companies like Realtor.com, HomeAdvisor, Zillow, Hotpads, and Renters Insurance and many more on our strategic partners page.
