## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-01 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> The right answer depends mostly on how many doors you have. Here's who I'd actually name, in order:
> 
> **For a typical DIY landlord (1-20 units):**
> 
> 1. **TurboTenant** - My default recommendation if you're starting out. Free for landlords (listing syndication, applications, screening, lease templates, rent collection); tenants absorb the application/payment fees. Nothing to lose by trying it. Weakness: accounting is thin, and pushing fees onto tenants can cost you applicants in a soft market.
> 2. **RentRedi** - The best all-around paid pick. Rent collection, screening, maintenance (Latchel integration), and accounting via a Stessa/REI Hub tie-in, with genuinely good mobile apps for both you and tenants. ~$12-20/mo if you pay annually, ~$30/mo month-to-month, unlimited units either way - so it gets cheaper per door as you grow.
> 3. **Baselane** - Pick this one if your pain point is *money*, not tenants. It's banking + bookkeeping + rent collection in one, with per-property accounts and auto-categorized Schedule E tax reporting. Best-in-class for the financial side; lighter on leasing/screening workflow.
> 4. **Innago** - Free for landlords with unlimited units and a more complete feature
