Every number on the label. Theirs too.
Real prices from real pricing pages, dated. Where a competitor is better, it says so in their column, because it's true.
What a month really costs: the software price at your size, plus the payment fees each vendor publishes. Fees billed to the building count toward its total. Fees pushed onto tenants are shown on their own, because your tenants pay them and notice. The rest is a fee model on rent moving through the system, not a quote.

Sorted by what the building pays. Card processing costs about 3% everywhere; what differs is who the vendor bills for it. "Charged to tenants" is what your tenants see taken on top of rent. Cash and checks are free on Taberna; bank transfers cost the processor's 0.8%, at most $5.

What people say online, and what we did about it
“Per-unit pricing gets painful past 100 doors.”
r/PropertyManagement
Flat tiers by building size. The price never moves when a unit fills.
“Buildium always has a pricing increase when you need a certain service.”
r/PropertyManagement
Every feature in every plan. Inspections, eSign, and exports are not upsells.
“AppFolio's 50-unit minimum filters out smaller portfolios.”
MagicDoor, 2026
Starter covers up to 8 units for $49. Pay-as-you-go starts at $0.
“When you request a limit increase through the horrid chat bot they request bank statements.”
r/PropertyManagement on DoorLoop
Your Stripe account, your limits. Rent goes to you as merchant of record, not through us.
“Tenant security deposit shows on the owner ledger and confuses the balance.”
r/PropertyManagement on Buildium
Deposits live on the lease, not the rent ledger. Rent, CAM, and deposits never mix.
“Payment processing can take up to seven days.”
Baselane review of TenantCloud
Stripe Connect pays out on Stripe's standard schedule, straight to the building's account.
“Clunky tenant portals reduce adoption, forcing you to maintain parallel manual processes.”
Amerisave, 2026
The portal is five screens a maker can use on a phone between customers. Their public page is the reward for using it.
“Excel + a payment portal works fine.”
r/PropertyManagement
Fair. Until the day someone else has to run the building. CSV out, any time, is the escape hatch.
- Are these prices current?
- Each one was read from the vendor's own pricing page or a dated review, and the date is shown. Vendors change prices; if one is stale, tell us and we fix it the same day.
- How is the real monthly cost estimated?
- Software price at your unit count, plus the payment fees the vendor publishes, applied to the share of rent you say is paid online and by card. Fees the vendor bills to the building are added to its total; fees pushed onto tenants are shown separately, because your tenants pay them and notice. Vendors that don't publish fees are marked, not guessed.
- What don't you do?
- A general ledger, a shared register, and tenant screening. If those are the whole job, the matrix above shows who has them. If the job is a building of shops, that's us.
- Can I bring my data over?
- Yes. Export a rent roll or tenant list from the old system (or your spreadsheet) as CSV and drop it on the import page: columns are matched by name, or by the AI if the names are odd, and you see every row before anything lands. Rent that came in through PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, Square, or the bank reconciles the same way, and it remembers who each payer is.
- What if my building is bigger than 120 units?
- Then you've outgrown us for now, and AppFolio or Yardi is the right call. We'd rather say so.
