Lot 5: Small Landlord Manager

Lot 5 is property management software built for the 1–5 unit landlord — the accidental landlord, the part-time investor, the person who still has a day job and manages rentals in their evenings. You outgrew a spreadsheet. You don't need AppFolio. WHAT LOT 5 DOES Portfolio at a glance. Every unit on one screen: tenant name, rent status, and open tickets. Reads like an air traffic control display. You know what needs your attention before you've had your coffee. Rent ledger. Real columnar layout — due date, amount, paid date, status. Log Zelle and Venmo payments. See who's current and who isn't. Expense capture with AI. Photograph any receipt. Lot 5 uses Apple Intelligence to extract vendor, amount, and the right Schedule E category — repairs, utilities, supplies, and more. No more hunting through credit card statements in April. Maintenance tickets. Report issues; AI suggests priority and vendor type (plumber vs. HVAC). You assign, track, and close. AI message rewriting. Type a terse note. Lot 5 rewrites it as a clear, professional message in your chosen tone — friendly, firm, or formal. Fewer misunderstandings, less friction. Mileage log. Track drives to your properties for the IRS business mileage deduction. Document vault. Store leases, inspection reports, insurance docs, and certificates of occupancy. OCR'd and searchable. Tax pack. End-of-year Schedule E summary: income, deductible expenses, mileage. Export to PDF for your CPA or your own return. NEW IN LOT 5 NEW — iCloud sync. Your portfolio, leases, rent ledger, and documents sync securely across iPhone and iPad through your own private iCloud. NEW — Home & Lock Screen widgets. Rent outstanding, open tickets, and the next lease expiring, right on your Home and Lock Screen. NEW — Smart reminders. On-device nudges for rent due, late rent, leases ending, and Schedule E season — so nothing slips. NEW — AI portfolio insights. A monthly briefing that flags below-market rent, light deduction categories, and units with recurring maintenance. NEW — Advanced exports. Generate a rent roll for lenders, per-unit P&L statements, and CSV expense exports for your accountant. NEW — CPA & co-owner sharing (Portfolio). Share your portfolio read-only with your accountant or co-owner. WHO IT'S FOR The individual landlord with 1–5 units. The person who inherited a property and doesn't know where to start.
