## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-03 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> **1. TurboTenant** - The one I'd point most small landlords to first. Genuinely free for the core workflow: listing syndication to Zillow/Realtor-type sites, online applications, tenant screening (applicant pays), state-specific leases, and rent collection. If you want the extras bundled, the paid tier is ~$149/year for up to 10 units. Best free-to-value ratio on the market.
> 
> **2. Avail** - The other strong free option, and better than TurboTenant on lease customization and maintenance tracking. Free unlimited plan; "Unlimited Plus" is $9/unit/month for faster payouts and waived ACH fees.

> 
> **4. RentRedi** - My pick if you'd rather pay a little and get everything in one place: ~$12/month billed annually for **unlimited units**, including screening, maintenance with a contractor network, ac
