The short answer

At 50 units, full property management software costs between $94 and $300 per month before one time fees. Letting Agency is $94 billed yearly. Yardi Breeze sits on its $100 minimum. Buildium Essential starts at $62 but reaches about $180 once every tenant pays rent online. Rent Manager and Propertyware charge their $200 and $250 minimums, and 50 units is exactly where AppFolio starts selling, at a reported $298 minimum.

Letting does not collect rent, screen tenants or list vacancies. Tenants keep paying into your bank account by ACH, Zelle or check, and Letting reads the bank export and matches every payment to a tenant. If that is how your rent already arrives, you are not paying for a payments module you will never switch on.

What 50 units cost per month on each platform

Figures come from each vendor's public pricing page, checked September 2026, except AppFolio, which publishes no prices and is shown at publicly reported quotes. Buildium is shown with one incoming ACH payment per unit per month, since that is how its bill grows. One time fees are listed separately.

Prices and fees change. Ask every vendor for a written quote at your exact unit count before you sign.

Where Letting is not the cheapest at 50 units

Two honest caveats. First, our $94 is the yearly price. Month to month, Agency is $189, and then Yardi Breeze at $100 and Buildium Essential without online payments are cheaper. Breeze does not publish a monthly term at its rate, so if you compare two annual commitments, Letting is $1,128 a year against Breeze's $1,200.

Second, landlord apps are cheaper still. RentRedi, for example, lists $12 per month billed yearly for unlimited units, and it collects rent inside its app. If you own all 50 units yourself and mainly want tenants paying through an app, a landlord app may be all you need. Letting is built for the next step: owners to report to, a management fee to deduct, arrears to chase by days late and inspections that hold up in a deposit dispute.

50 units, tenants pay by bank transfer, owners want a statement: Letting Agency, $94 billed yearly
50 units, you want tenants paying inside the software: Yardi Breeze or Buildium
50 units you own yourself, lowest possible price: a landlord app such as RentRedi

What a 50 unit portfolio actually needs from software

Fifty doors is the size where the spreadsheet breaks. You have 50 rent payments to check each month, four to eight turnovers a year, repair requests every week and, if you manage for other people, a handful of owners who each expect a clean statement. The software has to take those jobs off your evenings.

Letting Agency covers all six for up to 10 team members, so a part time assistant or a bookkeeper can log in with their own access.

Rent tracking that matches bank payments to tenants without checking by eye
Arrears aged by days late, so you chase the right tenants on the 2nd
Move-in and move-out inspections with dated photos for deposit decisions
Repair requests with photos, contractor and cost per unit
Owner statements per owner, with income, expenses and your fee
Room to grow to 150 units without the bill moving

Rent roll and bank matching for 50 tenants

Letting builds the rent roll from your leases every month. Export your bank transactions as CSV from Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo or any other US bank, drop the file in, and each payment matches to a tenant ledger, including partial payments and one transfer that covers two months. Anything that does not match waits in a short review list instead of hiding in a statement.

Owner statements when you manage for others

Plenty of 50 unit operators own half the doors and manage the rest for family, partners or a couple of outside owners. Letting splits income and expenses by owner, deducts your management fee and produces a PDF and CSV statement for each one. Your own units get the same report, so your CPA sees one consistent file at tax time and the income and expense export goes straight into QuickBooks or Xero.

Inspections and repairs at 50 doors

With four to eight move-outs a year, one disputed deduction can cost more than a year of software. Letting runs room by room inspections on a phone, stores dated photos and puts the move-out set beside the move-in set. Repair requests record the contractor and the cost against the unit, so you know which building is eating your margin.

A year at 50 units, worked through

Take a landlord with 50 units across six small buildings, 20 of them managed for two outside owners, tenants paying by ACH, six turnovers a year and a bookkeeper on QuickBooks. On Letting Agency billed yearly that is $1,128 for the year, with statements, inspections and repair history included and nothing charged to tenants. On Yardi Breeze it is $1,200 on an annual agreement. On Buildium Essential it starts at $744 in subscription plus about $1,410 in incoming ACH fees, roughly $2,154, before bank setup and the inspections add on. Rent Manager Basic is $2,400 plus about $400 implementation, and AppFolio Core is reported near $3,576 plus onboarding.

Who should choose Letting at 50 units

Choose Letting if you run 26 to 150 units, your tenants already pay by bank transfer, Zelle or check, you report to at least one owner or partner, and you want a price that stays put while you add doors. It suits landlords who have outgrown a spreadsheet and small property management companies in their first few years.

Choose Yardi Breeze or Buildium if you want rent collected inside a tenant portal with screening and listings in the same login. Wait on AppFolio until you are well past 100 units; at 50 you pay its minimum for capacity you do not use yet, as our AppFolio alternative page explains.

Moving 50 units into Letting

Export units, tenants and leases as CSV from your spreadsheet or current system, import them, and set opening balances for anyone behind. Then import last month's bank transactions and check that every payment matched. At 50 units that is an afternoon, not a paid onboarding project.

The full steps are on how it works.

For 50 units the best fit depends on how rent arrives. If tenants pay by bank transfer and you send owner statements, Letting Agency at $94 per month billed yearly is the lowest flat price among full platforms. If you want rent collected in a tenant portal, Yardi Breeze at $100 or Buildium fit better. If you own every unit and want the cheapest app, look at a landlord app.

Most full platforms cost $94 to $300 per month at 50 units before one time fees. Letting is $94 billed yearly, Yardi Breeze $100, Buildium Essential about $180 once tenants pay online, Rent Manager Basic $200, Propertyware Basic $250 and AppFolio Core a reported $298. Add implementation or onboarding where it applies.

Yes, 50 units is AppFolio Core's minimum, so you can sign at 50 but you pay the monthly minimum, reported near $298, plus an onboarding fee. That works out to about $6 per unit. Most 50 unit managers get better value from Yardi Breeze, Buildium or Letting until they pass about 200 units.

Buildium Essential starts at $62 per month and charges $2.35 for each incoming ACH rent payment, so 50 tenants paying online bring the bill to about $180 per month. Growth starts at $192 with $1.35 per payment, about $260. Bank account setup and paid onboarding are extra. See our Buildium pricing table.

Most landlords do by 50 units. That is 50 payments to reconcile, several turnovers and a pile of repair requests every month, and a missed partial payment or an undocumented move-in condition costs real money. Software that matches bank payments, ages arrears and stores inspection photos usually saves a full day at each month end.
