Property management app features for small landlords
RentKeep covers the work of renting out a few units yourself: collecting rent, sending invoices and receipts, tracking repairs, and knowing where the money stands. It runs on iPhone, Android, and the web, and the core features are free.
Core features
Rent collection
RentKeep creates each month's rent invoice, emails it to your tenant with a PDF, and can add a Stripe pay link on your own Stripe account. You see who has paid, who is due, and who is late.
Rent receipts
When you record a rent payment in RentKeep, the details a receipt needs are already there: tenant, unit, period, amount, date, and method. Share it as a PDF instead of filling in a paper rent receipt book.
Invoices
Create recurring rent invoices and one-off charges, send them to tenants by email with a PDF attached, and add a Stripe pay link on your own account. Draft, sent, overdue, and paid stay sorted for you.
Maintenance
Log maintenance requests by property and unit, track each job from open to done, and record what the repair cost. The history stays with the unit, so the next tenant's question has an answer.
Accounting and reports
RentKeep keeps the rent side of your books: what was billed, what was collected, what is outstanding, by property and by month. Export it to PDF or Excel for your accountant or tax software.
RentKeep AI
Ask in plain words, by chat or voice. RentKeep AI answers from your own properties, tenants, and invoices, and it can record a payment, draft an invoice, or add a follow-up. You confirm before anything is saved.
Cloud sync
Sign in and RentKeep backs up your portfolio to the cloud and keeps it in sync between iPhone, Android, and the web app at rentkeep.app. Record rent on your phone at the property and see it at your desk.

Is RentKeep property management software or a rent collection app?
Both, for small landlords. It handles rent invoices, payments, and receipts, and also properties, tenants, maintenance, and reports, on the phone and the web.
