## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-20 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> The right answer depends almost entirely on how many units you have, so here's my list roughly in the order I'd actually recommend them:
> 
> **If you have a handful of units (1-20) - start here**
> 
> 1. **TurboTenant** - My default recommendation for most small landlords. The free tier genuinely covers listing syndication, applications, screening, leases, and rent collection, and Premium is about $8.92/mo billed annually if you want the extras. Best free starting point in the category. Known gripes: slow support and some surprise fees.
> 2. **Innago** - The one that's actually free forever with no unit cap and no upgrade nagging. It makes money on tenant-paid ACH fees and screening/insurance upsells instead. Pick this over TurboTenant if you hate the idea of ever hitting a paywall.
> 3. **RentRedi** - Best mobile app in this tier by a clear margin, flat $9/mo (annual) with unlimited units and no per-door fees. Good if you and your tenants live on your phones.
> 4. **Avail** - Solid free/low-cost option from Realtor.com, particularly strong on state-specific lease templates. Worth a look but I'd generally rank it behind the three above.
> 5. **Hemlane** - The one I'd name if you own out-of-state
