FAQ
Common questions
For Irish and UK residential, social and affordable housing, it can be. Yardi is enterprise real estate software built for large international portfolios and investment reporting. Rentalize is built around the Irish and UK regulatory regimes: the one-click RTB registration export, Part 4 notice periods and the 2026 rent cap on every plan, and HAP tenancies on the tenancy record. For a global fund needing investment accounting across many countries, Yardi remains the stronger platform.
Check with Yardi for its current Irish coverage. Its US affordable housing compliance products cover US programmes such as HUD and LIHTC, which do not map to HAP, RAS, Cost Rental, Part V or the Irish council differential rent schemes, so ask which Irish schemes it supports natively. Rentalize handles HAP tenancies, runs affordable purchase allocations on Rentalize Select, and publishes a free differential rent calculator for all 31 councils. Cost rental scheme workflows are on the roadmap, not in the product today.
Ask each vendor for a written implementation plan. Rentalize is designed to go live in weeks, with a bulk-import wizard, import templates and document migration on every plan, and Irish and UK regulatory thresholds held as configurable settings. Rentalize has processed more than 200,000 applications since go-live, including 4,600 in a single week, with platform uptime of 99.97% backed by a 99.5% monthly SLA.
Yardi quotes on enterprise terms. Rentalize publishes its Core plans: EUR 199, EUR 695 and EUR 2,450 a month (GBP 169, GBP 599 and GBP 2,099 in the UK), with Enterprise priced to your portfolio, the tenant portal included on every plan and the landlord portal from Growth. Compare both on the same portfolio, including implementation and any separately licensed modules.
Rentalize is live with a local authority customer, has 5,000+ units under management and has handled 4,600 applications in one peak week. The Enterprise plan adds unlimited properties and staff and the REST API, and student accommodation is a paid add-on on any plan. What Rentalize does not attempt is Yardi's global multi country investment and fund accounting.
Yes. On every plan, the bulk-import wizard and import templates with column mapping bring across properties, tenants, invoices and more, and bring-your-documents migration covers certificates, leases and deposits. The scope and timeline are agreed with you on the demo.
