Rentalize vs Letman: Everything Letman Does, on New Technology
Letman is a respected Irish client rent accounting tool for letting agents. Rentalize covers client money accounts, landlord statements and SEPA payouts too (client money and owner statements on Growth and above), then adds online rent collection, maintenance, applications, mobile apps and an AI colleague, on a modern, ISO certified platform.
Same client accounting. A whole platform around it.
Letman is built around one job, client rent accounting, and does it well. Rentalize covers that same job with client money accounts, owner statements and SEPA remittances, then connects it to the rest of a lettings business: collecting the rent, fixing the property, signing the tenant and answering the landlord, all in one record and on modern, secure technology.
Pick Letman if
You only need client rent accounting and statements, your rent collection and maintenance already live somewhere else, and you want a single focused ledger with simple per unit pricing. Letman has done this for Irish agents for years.
Pick Rentalize if
You want client money accounts and owner statements plus the rest of the workflow, online rent collection, maintenance, applications, landlord and tenant portals and an AI colleague, on a modern system with native mobile apps and ISO 27001 certification in progress.
Match Letman, Then Do The Rest of The Job
Letman keeps the books. Rentalize keeps the books and runs the business around them, so your team stops stitching the ledger to four other tools by hand.
Collect the rent, not just record it
Tenants pay online by card or PayPal on every plan, and on Growth and above Rentalize Pay adds Instant Bank Pay and GoCardless Direct Debit. Letman records and reconciles money but does not collect it online.
Maintenance and contractors built in
Tenants report issues from their phone. You assign a contractor, track the job and the cost, and keep the landlord informed. Letman has no maintenance module.
Talia, your AI colleague
Talia drafts tenant and landlord messages, answers questions from your live portfolio data and flags compliance gaps, then confirms before any change. Letman has no AI.
Native mobile apps
Full iOS and Android apps for your team, landlords and tenants. Letman is a web tool with a portal sold as a paid add-on.
Security built for audit
ISO 27001 certification in progress, controls aligned with ISO 27018 and 27701 guidance, data stored in the EU, two factor authentication and branded PDF and CSV exports on every report. Letman states GDPR compliance and 128 bit backups.
Portals in the plan, not extra
The tenant portal is part of every Rentalize plan and the landlord portal is included from Growth upwards, not sold per unit. With Letman the MyLetman portal is a paid add-on at 0.60 euro per unit per month.
