Property management software

Landlord Studio

Landlord Studio is rental property software for independent landlords, built around income and expense tracking with listings, screening, rent collection, leases and maintenance attached. It has been sold since 2014 and runs as a web app and as native mobile apps.

Accounting is the core of it. Transactions import automatically through bank feeds, receipts are captured with a phone camera, mileage is logged on the go, and expenses are categorised into IRS-aligned categories with AI-assisted bookkeeping and custom categorisation rules. Reports cover cash flow, profit and loss and ROI by property or portfolio, with tax-ready Schedule E and 1099 exports and a direct integration with Xero.

On the leasing side, listings are created and syndicated to Zillow, Realtor.com, Zumper and other platforms, applications and pre-screening questions are collected online, and TransUnion credit, criminal and eviction reports can be run and paid for by either the landlord or the tenant. Rent is collected by ACH, debit or credit card with automated reminders, optional partial payments and automatic late fees, and maintenance requests are submitted and tracked online.

Plans are tiered by unit count. The free GO plan covers up to three units with manual income and expense tracking; PRO at $12.00 a month or $144 a year adds rental accounting, bank feeds, automated reminders and tax-ready reports; PREMIUM at $28.00 a month or $366 a year adds unlimited document storage, a dedicated account manager, up to 10 users and more bank feed connections. The company reports 80,000+ landlords on the platform.
