Avail review
A capable free web tool for DIY landlords, with paid upgrades for faster payments and customization.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Avail is web-based property management software for DIY landlords and independent property owners. It brings rental listing syndication, applications, tenant screening, state-specific lease templates, digital signing, rent collection, maintenance tracking, income and expense tracking, tenant portals, and messaging into one browser-based service. Tenants can pay rent, sign leases, access renter profiles, and submit maintenance requests. Its free Unlimited plan supports unlimited units, making it a practical fit for landlords who want to manage rentals without starting with a subscription.
The pricing structure keeps core workflows available at no monthly cost per unit. Unlimited includes syndication to rental sites, applications and screening reports, leases with digital signing, online rent collection, and maintenance request tracking. Unlimited Plus costs $9 per unit per month and adds FastPay next-day deposits, waived ACH charges, custom application questions, customizable and reusable lease templates, and a branded property website. Landlords focused on basic listing, leasing, payment, and maintenance tasks can stay on the free tier, while owners needing more payment flexibility or branding have a defined upgrade path.
Avail’s main tradeoff is platform breadth. It is web-only, although the website is optimized for mobile browsers, so landlords seeking a native mobile app should look elsewhere. Its listed integrations include Realtor.com, Zumper, PadMapper, Redfin, and TransUnion, which supports key listing and screening workflows but gives it a narrower ecosystem than broader property management suites may offer. Choose Avail for a straightforward, free browser-based toolkit covering the core rental lifecycle. Consider an alternative if native mobile apps, deeper integrations, or a wider platform ecosystem are central requirements.
