Rentward: Landlord & Tenant

Rentward is one app for both sides of a small rental: the landlord who keeps the records, and the tenants who pay the rent and report what's broken. No account, no password, no monthly fee. FOR TENANTS. Your landlord sends you a private link. Install Rentward, open the link (or paste it after tapping "I'm a tenant"), and your rental is in the app. - See what you owe this month, when it's due, and up to 12 months of what you've paid. - Pay your landlord directly: Venmo and Cash App open with the amount filled in, or copy their Zelle details. Rent goes straight to your landlord; Rentward never touches the money. - Tap "I paid" so your landlord can confirm it, and see when they do. - Report a problem with up to 3 photos from your camera, then follow its status and your landlord's notes. - Read your landlord's announcements. - Get a reminder the day before rent is due. No app? The same link opens as a web page in any browser. FOR LANDLORDS. A private, local-first record keeper for one to ten rental units. It turns a year of rent, expenses and receipt photos into a categorized, receipt-backed packet you hand to your accountant in April - with no bank connection. YOUR RECORDS, YOUR DEVICE. - No account. Your ledger, receipts and notes never leave your phone. - The tenant portal is optional and off until you turn it on. OPTIONAL TENANT PORTAL (free). Turn it on in Settings and each tenant gets a private link they can open in the Rentward app or any browser. - "I paid" notes and maintenance requests with photos land in your Inbox. Confirm a payment and it's recorded in your ledger. - Post announcements ("water off Tuesday 9-11am") to a property's tenants. - Only first names, rooms, rent figures and your payment handles are shared. Turn it off and all of it is deleted from our server immediately. FREE, AND BUILT TO STAY THAT WAY. - Unlimited properties and units. No three-unit cap, no per-unit surcharge. - Income and expense entries with date, property, unit, payee, category and notes. - Receipt capture is UNLIMITED - photograph a receipt and attach it to an entry. - Rent roll: expected vs received per tenant or unit, with paid, partial, due and late markers. - Manual mileage log with an editable rate. No background GPS. - Per-property profit and loss for any date range. - Tenants and rent reminders: pre-filled rent texts with your Venmo, Cash App or Zelle details. - Export always: CSV and a full JSON backup. - Passcode lock, always free. THE APRIL JOB (one-time unlock). - Schedule E packet (PDF), per property, per tax year, mapped to the real Schedule E line categories. - Accountant hand-off bundle: the PDF, a CSV of every line item, and the receipt images, zipped and shareable. - Multi-year comparison per property, so you spot a missing category before filing. - Depreciation schedule: record each asset's cost, in-service date and method; yearly amounts calculated for your preparer to confirm. One-time purchase. HONESTY, BY DESIGN. Rentward organizes the records you enter. It does not tell you what is deductible and it does not prepare a return - your preparer makes those determinations from the entries and receipts you hand over. The packet says so, in the document, next to every total. Rentward is a record-keeping tool, not tax advice, not a consumer reporting agency, and not a bank. There is no tenant screening, no rent collection, no bank sync, and no lease templates.
