Intended outcome
Create connected property, tenant, lease, rent, and expense records.
Prerequisites
Sign in, choose a billing plan if prompted, and gather the property address, unit names, tenant contacts, and lease terms.
Steps
- In Properties and units, select Add property and save the address and unit structure.
- In Tenants, select Add tenant for each person needed on a lease.
- In Leases, create a lease and select its property, unit, tenants, dates, and rent.
- In Charges & payments, confirm charges and record payments as money arrives.
- In Expenses, record rental costs with their property, date, category, and vendor.
Expected result
The dashboard and reports can connect activity to the correct rental records.
Common problems
- If Add property is disabled, open Billing and choose an eligible plan.
- If a unit or tenant is missing, save that record before reopening the lease.
Product boundaries
LandlordRentals organizes records; it does not screen tenants, move money, or replace legal or accounting advice.
