Switching

Don't re-type your portfolio. Upload your leases.

Whether it's another platform, a spreadsheet, or a folder of signed PDFs, the setup is the part that stops people. It takes minutes here, not a weekend.

Old leases, read for you

Upload PDFs, scans, even phone photos of paper leases. We pull out the tenant, the rent, the dates.

Or a spreadsheet

CSV or Excel from any platform. AI matches your columns to ours, however they're labelled.

You check before it saves

Everything lands in a table you can edit. Anything we weren't sure about is highlighted. Nothing is written until you say so.

See exactly how it works

Included on every plan. Migrating shouldn't cost extra — it's the whole reason you'd try us.

Features

The busywork, handled.

Rent tracking is the reason to start. These are the reasons people stay — the admin that used to eat your evenings, done before you get to it.

Rent that tracks itself

Connect your bank and every rent deposit gets matched to the right tenant automatically — however they pay. You see who's short before you'd have noticed. Your money never passes through us; it goes straight to your account.

The tenant emails, written for you

Rent reminders, late-rent follow-ups, and renewal notices come pre-drafted with your tenant's details filled in. You review and send in one click.

Maintenance that sorts itself

Every request is auto-classified by priority and category — and when a tenant attaches a photo, we read it too. "Sink leaking" becomes "active drip, cabinet base already swollen," so the emergency floats to the top.

Ask anything about your portfolio

"Which leases expire in July?" "What does John's lease say about pets?" Get an answer in seconds — your whole portfolio, one question away.

A lease in under 60 seconds

Generate a state-specific lease with tenant details, rent, late-fee clauses, and key dates filled in — instead of an afternoon wrestling a template.

Spot problem tenants early

See a tenant's payment pattern in plain numbers — how many late payments, how many days, what's outstanding — plus a late-rent ladder that escalates on its own schedule. It shows you the facts; you make the call.

Fill vacancies faster

New inquiries drop into a simple leasing pipeline, get an AI qualification score, and arrive with a first reply already drafted — so you respond in minutes, not days.

Bring your old leases with you

Upload a folder of old leases — PDFs, scans, even phone photos of paper — and we read them into tenant records. You check the numbers before anything saves. Switching software stops being a weekend project.

Rental applications, in one place

Send an application link and the applicant fills it in themselves. Everything lands in one record with a tracked decision trail, so when you say no you have a written reason and a date.

You decide what sends itself

Rent reminders go out on their own using your real numbers. Anything the AI writes from scratch waits for you to read it first. Set-and-forget where it's safe, review where it matters.

Pricing

One price per tier. Not one price per door.

Per-unit tools bill you for every unit you own, so the invoice grows with the portfolio. Here you pick a tier and the price holds until you outgrow it — with bank reconciliation and Schedule E reports included at every level. (AI lease drafting is on the top plan only.) No hidden fees. No long-term contracts. Cancel any time.

Every plan starts with the same 14-day trial of Pro — no card required. Pick the tier that fits when it ends.

100 units. Still $79/month.

Sarah in Unit 4B asked if she can paint her bedroom. What does her lease say?
Sarah's lease (section 7c) allows interior paint with prior written approval. Standard walls only, no accent murals. She'd need to repaint to neutral at move-out or forfeit a $150 fee.
Draft a quick reply approving it, mention the move-out clause.
Drafted. "Hi Sarah, yes, you're welcome to paint the bedroom. Just a heads-up: per section 7c, walls need to be returned to neutral at move-out or there's a $150 repaint fee. Pick whatever color you'd like!"
Who this is for

You're not going to make a good tenant download an app.

Most rental software starts by moving your tenants onto its own payment system. That works if you're filling a vacancy every year. It works badly if your tenant has been there eleven years and pays by check, or Zelles you on the first.

So we read your bank account instead. Rent arrives however it already arrives, and we tell you whose it was.

Nobody holds your money in transit, so there are no processing fees and no payout delays — and because we see the whole account, your Schedule E includes the plumber you paid in cash.

Your rental business deserves better than a spreadsheet.

Security & Trust

You're trusting us with rent, leases, and tenant data. We take that seriously.

SmartLeaseFlow is built with the same security practices you'd expect from a bank-adjacent product — documented, not just claimed.

Encrypted at rest

Sensitive data like bank tokens and secrets is encrypted with AES-256. Passwords are hashed — never stored in plain text.

Secure payments

Card details are handled by our PCI-compliant payment processor and never touch our servers.

Two-factor authentication

Turn on app-based 2FA so a stolen password alone can't get into your account.

Role-based access

Give teammates exactly the access they need and nothing more, with per-role permissions.

Backed by a documented information security policy and automated fraud monitoring on every payment.

From the founder

I built SmartLeaseFlow because I kept losing evenings to the same three things: working out who had actually paid, writing the same tenant emails, and digging through leases for one date. So it does that part. It reads your bank feed and matches the rent, drafts the reminders and notices, and keeps the lease dates where you can find them — however your tenants pay. You still make every decision. If you try it and something's missing, email me directly. I read every message.
