Buildium is designed for landlords and property managers who run a few dozen to a few thousand units. A manager can list vacancies, screen applicants, sign leases online, collect rent through a resident portal, and track maintenance requests with vendors. Owners can receive statements and reports, and community associations have their own tools.
Accounting is built in, with trust accounting, bank reconciliation, and tax reports that property managers need. Mobile apps let staff handle requests in the field. Some AI features help with tasks such as drafting messages and summarizing information, and integrations connect with listing sites, screening services, and other software.
RealPage, a large real estate technology company, owns Buildium, which sits at the more affordable end of its range. It is paid by tiers based on features and number of units. Alternatives include AppFolio, DoorLoop, TenantCloud, Rent Manager, and Yardi Breeze. Buildium suits independent property managers and landlords who want an all-in-one platform.
