Innago vs Avail: Which One Fits Your Portfolio?
Description
Both are the site’s genuinely-free picks for small landlords, so this isn’t a price comparison, it’s about which free product actually fits your unit count and workflow. Innago has no unit cap. Avail is built specifically for under 10 units.
PRICING
Innago: $0/month core platform, no unit or user limits. Revenue comes from optional add-ons (tenant screening reports, premium support) and a small per-transaction fee (around 2.99%) on certain rent payments, not a subscription.
Avail: Unlimited plan is free with no monthly cost. Unlimited Plus runs $7-9/unit/month and adds waived ACH fees, customizable leases, a dedicated property website, and faster support.
WHO EACH ONE IS BUILT FOR
Innago targets small to mid-sized landlords with no hard unit ceiling, 97% of its own reviewers come from small businesses. It’s the tool for someone who wants the real product free, not a stripped-down trial.
Avail is built specifically for landlords under 10 units, 88% of its reviewers come from small businesses. It’s a tighter fit for a true DIY landlord with a handful of doors who wants a clear low-cost upgrade path if needed.
FEATURE DIFFERENCES WORTH KNOWING
Both include tenant screening, online rent collection, and maintenance/notification tools at no cost. Innago includes electronic lease signatures and customizable invoices/late fees in its free core. Avail’s standout is customizable, state-specific lease templates with e-signatures built in, plus listing syndication to reach more applicants.
THE ACTUAL DECISION
If you’re near or above 10 units and don’t want to think about a ceiling, Innago’s no-unit-cap model is the safer long-term free pick. If you’re solidly under 10 units and specifically want state-specific lease templates with e-signatures baked into the free tier, Avail’s Unlimited plan is built exactly for that use case.
