Why one flat price instead of per-unit
Almost all property management software is priced per unit per month, and almost all of it carries a unit minimum — commonly twenty, sometimes fifty. The logic makes sense for the customer that pricing was designed around: a management company billing its own clients per door.
It makes no sense for you. A landlord with five units under a fifty-unit minimum pays for forty-five doors that do not exist, and the bill grows the year you buy a sixth property — precisely the year your cash is somewhere else. Rentmark charges one price for the software, because the software costs us the same whether it is holding five leases or fifty.
| Your portfolio | Rentmark, per year | Per door, per month |
|---|---|---|
| 2 units | $199.90 | $8.33 |
| 5 units | $199.90 | $3.33 |
| 10 units | $199.90 | $1.67 |
| 25 units | $199.90 | $0.67 |
The annual price is ten months, not twelve — $199.90 instead of $239.88, so paying yearly saves you $39.98 and works out at $16.66 a month.
What is free, and what the subscription turns on
Rentmark is not free software with a locked upgrade button, and it is not a walled garden either.

What this would cost bought piece by piece
The pieces of a small landlord’s stack are all sold separately, and their published prices are easy to check:
| Bought on its own | Typical published price |
|---|---|
| State-specific lease agreementone-time price at leading competitors | $59 each |
| E-signaturestypical à-la-carte e-sign price | $15 per document |
| Landlord forms packthe going rate for a forms bundle | $199 |
| Accounting & tax-ready reportsstandalone rental accounting software | $300 / yr |
| Rentmark — all of it, plus everything else | $199.90 / yr |
Roughly $573 à la carte in year one, against $199.90 — and tenant screening on top, where the applicant pays for their own report and it costs you nothing.
What we never charge for
- A percentage of your rent. Tenants pay you directly with your own Stripe, PayPal or Zelle details. Rentmark records the payment; it never holds the money, so there is nothing for us to take a cut of.
- Documents. Leases, addenda, receipts, notices, inspection reports and deposit statements are unlimited and unmetered.
- Signatures. Sending a lease for electronic signature is included, with no per-envelope fee.
- Extra users or extra properties. Both are unlimited on the one plan.
