I use the lease feature from Rocket Lawyer as it's part of my tools stack from Baselane - my banking/bookkeeping/tenant management platform.

We are TK company in Indianapolis (this is not a pitch), and have a strategic partnership with a unique company that does NOT mark up any maintenance or tenant turns...

It markets our properties, screens our tenants, collects our rent, deposits it into our bank accounts, has full accounting and reporting features, has a tenant facing web portal & app where tenants can log in and report maintenance issues and see their account, etc, for $2/door/month - but they have a $45 minimum monthly fee... so up until you cross 22 doors it would be $45.

Highlighting unique property features is essential.
