If you are comparing rent-collection tools

Avail is a well-known choice for do-it-yourself landlords. RentMerchant covers the same day-to-day work, applications, leases, online rent, and maintenance, and keeps the price simple: free for up to three properties, then a flat $15 a month.

Everything below is what RentMerchant actually does today. We are not going to put words in Avail's mouth or invent a comparison table. If Avail fits how you work, great. If you want free, flat-priced rent collection with the whole rental in one login, here is what you get.

What RentMerchant gives you

Free where it counts

Collect rent online for free on up to three properties. You do not pay per unit or per payment, and tenants cover the processing fee at checkout.

One login for the whole rental

Applications, lease e-sign, rent, maintenance, documents, and messaging all live in the same place instead of spread across tools.

Set rent once and walk away

Recurring invoices and reminders run on their own, and tenants can turn on autopay so the rent is never late by accident.
