What Is Small Landlord Ledger?

Small Landlord Ledger is a free browser-based rental property management tool designed for landlords with 1-50 units. It fills the gap between spreadsheets (too manual) and enterprise software like AppFolio (too expensive and complex). Track rent payments, log maintenance expenses, view cash flow per property, and export data for tax preparation — all without signing up or uploading any data.

How to Use the Ledger

Add your properties with tenant and lease information. Each month, mark rent as paid or overdue. Log maintenance expenses with categories (repair, insurance, utilities, etc.). The dashboard shows your monthly cash flow, annual projected net income, and overdue alerts. Export a JSON backup anytime for safekeeping or tax preparation.
