Online Rent Collection

[Andrew Grams]

We recently landed our first house hack/investment(!), and so far our inherited tenants have been a dream(!)... but I want to switch to online rent collection and I'm sort of shocked that there's no standard-bearer for this. From what I can tell it used to be Cozy but it sounds like some are disappointed with the transition to Apartments.com. So, Apartments.com, Rentler, Avail? Any stand-out favorite among the group here?

Thanks, @Matt Ziegler and @Domenick T. I like what I see of Avail but the application fee of $55 would no doubt be a turn off for some applicants, and the lack of cohesive branding and any social media presence/app I think will lead people to think less of it even if it’s owned by Realtor.com. Rentler (owned by Tenant Cloud) looks like a good option that’s moving in the right direction but I’m surprised that they charge for lease forms and don’t allow for digital signing.

Crossing my fingers. I guess it’s best just to get started and adjust course after if necessary.
