For the accidental landlord
Roost is rental management for one landlord with a few rentals — the nurse with an inherited home, the retiree with a duplex, the homeowner who moved and kept the old place. Track rent, send reminders, log expenses, breeze through tax time.

01 — What's inside
Rent
Each lease gets a row per month. Tenant pays via Venmo or Zelle, you tap the row. We auto-text reminders three days before, on the day, and three days late — signed with your name, not ours.
Tax time
Income and expenses categorized the way the IRS asks for them, exportable as a clean PDF in April. The thing your accountant has been asking you to organize.
Maintenance
Log every repair from creation to fixed — status, notes, photos, all in one place. Tenant-text intake rolls in once carrier approvals clear.
Documents
One folder per property. Searchable. Not buried in three different Gmail threads from five years ago.
02 — How it feels
Status chips do the heavy lifting. Sage means paid and at peace, amber means due soon, terracotta means a real conversation needs to happen. No red sirens, no scolding tenants — just a calmer way to know where things stand.

03 — Pricing
No per-unit fees, no per-tenant fees, no setup fees. If your situation changes — you buy another rental, your duplex gets a second tenant — the price doesn't.
Existing tools were quoted at $80 to $200 a month. Those are built for property managers with twenty units and a team. You have neither. So Roost is $20.
