TenantCloud Review (2026): Pricing, Fees, and Who It's Really For

TenantCloud is a budget-priced property management platform for DIY landlords that tiers its features and lease limits across four plans, from basic rent collection up to owner portals and team tools. Last reviewed August 2026.

Full disclosure: we build Vantric, which competes with TenantCloud — judge our take accordingly. Every price below comes from TenantCloud's own published pricing (verified 2026-08-28), and where TenantCloud is the better choice, we say so.

What TenantCloud costs

Starter costs $18/month or $15/month billed annually ($180/year) and covers up to 10 leases. Growth is $35/month or $29.17/month annually ($350/year) with up to 30 leases, and Pro is $60/month or $50/month annually ($600/year) with up to 60 leases, adding tax reports, bank reconciliation, and a separate owner portal. The Business plan starts at $100.00/month with custom annual pricing, custom lease limits, and team management. There are no per-unit fees, but each plan caps the number of leases.

What tenants pay

Tenants pay the online payment fees: ACH transaction fees vary by the landlord's plan at $1.95 on Starter, $1.75 on Growth, and $1.50 on Pro (custom on Business). Card payments cost 3.5% + $0.30 per successful charge.

Full tenant screenings are available on all plans at no cost to the landlord, with the applicant paying the report fee. The exact applicant price is not published on the pricing page.

What TenantCloud does well

  • It has the lowest entry price of the three at $15/month billed annually, undercutting both RentRedi's annual rate and DoorLoop's minimum.
  • Higher tiers include genuine accounting depth for the price, with tax reports, bank reconciliation, and a separate owner portal on the Pro plan.
  • Tenant screening costs the landlord nothing on any plan, since reports are applicant-paid.
  • The four-tier structure lets landlords start cheap and add features (inspections, message boards, owner portals, team tools) as the portfolio grows.
  • It bundles listings, applications, maintenance management, and online payments even at the Starter tier.

Where TenantCloud falls short

  • Every plan caps the number of active leases (10 on Starter, 30 on Growth, 60 on Pro), so growth forces plan upgrades independent of feature needs.
  • The 3.5% + $0.30 card fee and $1.50-$1.95 ACH fees passed to tenants are higher than RentRedi's $1 ACH and 3.1% + $0.30 card fees.
  • Users commonly report slow or unhelpful customer support as a recurring theme in reviews.
  • Features small landlords often expect early, such as bank reconciliation and tax reports, are gated to the $50+/month Pro tier.

Who should pick TenantCloud

Price-sensitive DIY landlords with up to 10 leases who want listings, applications, and online rent collection at the lowest possible monthly cost, with room to upgrade tiers as they grow.

Who should look elsewhere: Landlords who want every feature without tier-shopping, or those close to a lease cap: RentRedi's flat unlimited pricing or DoorLoop's professional tiers can be simpler or more capable at scale.

TenantCloud's four tiers are budget-friendly at the entry point, but the model is tier-shopping: lease caps, per-plan ACH fees, and features that unlock as you climb. Vantric's counter is structural — two prices, every feature in both, no caps to outgrow mid-lease. If you enjoy comparing plan matrices to find your fit, TenantCloud rewards the homework; if you want to never think about it again, that's what flat pricing is for.
