Accounting & bookkeeping
REI Hub
REI Hub is accounting software for rental property owners and real estate investors, built on a property-centric chart of accounts rather than a general small-business one. The company is based in Richmond, Virginia and describes its users as everyday investors and the financial professionals who work with them.
Properties are created from a few details, and bank, mortgage, loan, and credit card accounts connect directly so transactions import automatically. Matching rules and payment templates speed up categorization, and Airbnb and VRBO payout statements import and break down by property. Reporting includes profit and loss or cash flow by property with no setup, a portfolio balance sheet, Schedule E, fixed asset schedules with basis and depreciation recorded per property, and automatic portfolio and mileage expense allocation. Properties can be single or multi-unit with no cap on units, and short-term, long-term, and mixed portfolios are all supported.
REI Hub is deliberately not property management software: it has no rent collection, listing services, tenant management or screening, and no maintenance coordination. The chart of accounts is editable, so the company says the system can be extended to commercial real estate or other rentable property.
Pricing is published by portfolio size. There is a free tier for minimal transactions, and the Professional plan runs $9 a month billed annually for up to 3 units, $15 for up to 10 units, $27 for up to 20 units, and $48 for unlimited units, or $15, $25, $45, and $80 respectively when billed monthly. There are no long-term contracts and the trial runs 14 days without a credit card. Contact is (888) 939-6865 and the address is 1717 E Cary St, Richmond, VA 23223.

Common questions
- Does REI Hub work for multi-unit and short-term rentals?
- Yes. Properties can be single or multi-unit with no limit on the number of units, and a unit selector appears when booking a transaction against a multi-unit property. Short-term and vacation rentals are supported, and the company says they benefit most from property-centric accounting because of their transaction volume.
- Does REI Hub collect rent or manage tenants?
- No. REI Hub is accounting software only. It does not provide rent collection, listing services, tenant management or screening, or maintenance coordination.
- Can REI Hub be used for commercial property?
- Yes. The company says the system is designed first for individual rental property owners, but the chart of accounts can be extended, so the property-centric structure can be adapted to commercial real estate and other rentable property.
