Property management software, NZ

Property management software for New Zealand landlords

RentManager is New Zealand property management software for DIY landlords with 1 to 10 rentals. Keep rent, bond, compliance, inspection and repair records together to reduce repeated admin. You choose tenants, review rent matches and approve repair work. Plans start at NZ$9 per month. Xero is optional on eligible plans. Direct NZ Open Banking (CDR) is not yet available.

Current landlord subscription prices include GST: NZ$9/month for 1 property, NZ$19/month for up to 5 properties, and NZ$29/month for up to 10 properties. New landlord accounts include a 30-day Standard trial with no credit card.

Keep the important landlord workflows connected

Follow applicant selection, agreement setup, rent, repairs and inspection records in one place, while you stay in control of decisions and approvals.

Find and choose your tenant

Share a public listing, manage viewing requests and applications, review references, and choose the tenant yourself. Prepare the tenancy agreement for signatures and keep the signed document with the tenancy record. Active paid or promotional subscribers can also review Trade Me listing drafts, complete any Trade Me payment and activate the listing there, or publish to realestate.co.nz for NZ$49 including GST per listing.

Review rent against the tenancy

Match imported transactions to rent, review uncertain payments and keep a clear ledger for each tenancy.

Coordinate repairs, with you approving the work

Tenants can send a request with photos. Review urgency, edit the quote request and choose which photos to share. Send it to the tradies you select, compare submitted quotes and choose which one to accept. RentManager assigns your selected tradie, closes the other open quote requests and keeps the request, quotes, approval, invoice and communications with the property. You control access and approval, with the repair history together instead of scattered across records.

Keep inspection evidence together

Use guided inspection templates to record notes and photos, then keep the signed report with the property record.

Everything you need to self-manage

One flat fee, no per-feature add-ons. Built for landlords with 1 to 10 properties.

Rent tracking
Import CSV transactions for automatic matching, review uncertain payments, and see a clear ledger for each tenancy.
Bank sync
CSV import with automatic matching and duplicate detection is available today. Standard and above can read supported bank-feed transactions through a connected Xero organisation. Direct NZ Open Banking (CDR) is not yet available.
Arrears tracking
Calculate arrears from the rent schedule and recorded payments. Enable day 3, 7 and 14 dashboard reminders per tenancy when an active bank connection is available; they clear when rent is recorded. Tenant emails also require recent data and eligibility checks.

For supported bond operations, prepare and submit requests through the MBIE Tenancy Bond API after your RentManager account and Tenancy Services payment setup are enabled. Some refunds need tenant review; the request is complete only after Tenancy Services confirms it.

For a landlord with 1 to 10 properties, the best fit is software built for NZ law: Healthy Homes, the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 with the 2024 amendments, MBIE bond lodgement and IR3R tax. RentManager covers all of these in one flat fee.
