Hemlane review
A free entry plan covers rental basics; paid tiers add leasing and maintenance support.

Hemlane is cloud and mobile property management software for landlords, rental owners, property managers, agents, and brokerages. Its Starter plan gives small landlords a free way to handle rental advertising, applicant and tenant screening, and rental accounting. The product also covers lease tracking, e-signatures, rent collection, tenant messaging, and maintenance workflows, with tenant-facing portal and mobile app access. Its breadth suits owners who want core rental operations in one system, though the owner and manager workflow is web-based rather than available through the tenant app.
The published monthly plans show a clear progression. Starter costs $0 per month and includes advertising, screening, and accounting. Basic costs $30 per month, adding lease tracking and management, document storage and e-sign, rent collection and late fees, and tenant messaging. Essential is $48 per month and adds 24/7 repair coordination, work order management, and state-specific leases. Complete costs $86 per month and adds a property management assistant, vetted repair network, and local leasing and turnover network. Hemlane also offers a 14-day free trial; its pricing page says annual billing can save up to 20%. The free tier is useful for landlords who need the basics, while paid tiers make sense when lease administration or service coordination is a priority.
A tenant portal and mobile app support payments, lease information, messages, and maintenance requests, while income and expense tracking includes bank synchronization. Maintenance features grow from request handling to repair coordination and work orders, with higher plans adding networks and assistance. Hemlane lists documentation as a support channel and two-factor authentication as a compliance feature. Choose it if you value a free starting point and may later want leasing or repair services within the same product. Consider alternatives if you need an owner-facing mobile app or broader documented support channels.
