When to Choose TenantCloud

Solo landlords and small-portfolio owners who want the lowest possible monthly cost with a modern, all-in-one platform

TenantCloud is the budget entry point for property management software, offering a surprisingly complete feature set at $15/month. The trade-off is lease-count caps and lack of team seats on lower tiers, which means growing landlords will hit upgrade thresholds quickly.

Strengths

  • Lowest entry price for a full-featured property management platform at $15/month
  • Unlimited properties and units on all plans — only lease count varies by tier
  • Comprehensive feature set including screening, rent collection, maintenance, and listing syndication
  • QuickBooks Online sync and bank reconciliation available on Pro tier

Limitations

  • Lease limits per tier (Starter: 10, Growth: 30, Pro: 60) force upgrades as you grow
  • No team member seats on the Starter plan — solo landlords only on the cheapest tier
  • Tight storage limits on lower tiers (1 GB on Starter) can be restrictive

When to Choose Avail

First-time DIY landlords with fewer than 10 units who value simplicity and Realtor.com listing syndication

Avail is a solid, beginner-friendly platform with a generous free tier and strong listing reach via the Realtor.com ecosystem. However, the per-unit pricing model makes it progressively less economical as your portfolio grows, and the lack of a mobile app is a notable gap.

Strengths

  • Backed by Realtor.com with automatic listing syndication to 20+ rental sites
  • Strong free plan with state-specific lease templates, Autopay, and rent collection
  • Clean, simple interface designed for first-time DIY landlords
  • Tenant screening with TransUnion credit, background, and eviction reports

Limitations

  • Per-unit pricing ($9/unit/month) gets expensive as portfolios grow — 10 units is $90/month
  • No dedicated mobile app — web-only access frustrates landlords managing on the go
  • Inconsistent customer support quality with limited response channels
