How to manage your rental portfolio without spreadsheets

Managing rentals in spreadsheets seems appealing — everyone knows Excel. The problems start with the second tenant: payments get lost, deadlines are missed, and utility reconciliations are recalculated by hand every year.

SmartRent centralises everything in one place: rent invoices are generated automatically each month, PAY by square QR payments go directly to the tenant, and meter readings are submitted by the tenant via mobile after scanning a QR sticker on the meter — no phone calls needed.

Try SmartRent for free — your first property is included in the Free plan with no time limit.
