Free Property Management Software for Landlords

“Free” property management software usually means one of two things: a free trial that converts to a paid plan, or an actually-free tier that stays free indefinitely because the vendor makes money somewhere else (tenant fees, banking interchange, optional add-ons). This page is about the second kind – platforms you can run for $0/month with no expiration date on the free tier.

Innago – actually free, no landlord fee

Innago doesn’t charge landlords anything, ever – it makes money through optional tenant-paid fees instead. Rent collection, lease e-signing, tenant screening, and maintenance requests are all included at no cost to you. This is the closest thing to “actually free” on this whole site. See our full Innago review.

Avail – free for the core toolset

Avail’s core landlord tools (listings, tenant screening, rent collection) are free to use. Paid add-ons exist for things like premium tenant screening reports, but the base platform isn’t a time-limited trial. See our full Avail review.

Landlord Studio – free GO tier

The GO tier covers rent tracking, expense tracking, and basic reporting with no cost and no time limit. The paid PRO tier adds automation on top, but GO is a real, permanent free option, not a bait-and-switch trial. See our full Landlord Studio review.

Baselane – free banking and financial tools

Baselane’s core banking and expense-tracking tools are free; the company makes money on the banking/interchange side rather than charging landlords a subscription. If bookkeeping is your main pain point, this is worth checking before paying for accounting features bundled into a bigger platform. See our full Baselane review.

Complete Landlord Bundle – not free, but worth naming here anyway

This one’s a one-time $39.99 purchase, not free – we’re not going to pretend otherwise. But it’s included on this page because “actually free” and “no recurring cost” are usually what people actually want when they search this term, and a one-time purchase with no monthly bill fits that intent better than a lot of “free” software that nickel-and-dimes you later. See our full guide to the best options for small or DIY landlords.

What’s missing from this list, on purpose

DoorLoop, RentRedi, Hemlane, and Rentec Direct all offer real value, but none of them have a permanent $0/month tier – they’re either paid from day one or run a time-limited free trial. That’s not a knock on them; it just means they don’t belong on a “actually free” list. See their full reviews if a free trial is enough to get started, or if per-unit pricing fits your budget better than what’s listed here.
