Run your own rentals like a pro — for $1.10 a door.
Forge is the property management platform used by companies, in a mode built for you: collect rent, automate late fees, stay on the right side of your state's landlord-tenant law, and give your tenants a real portal. No management company required.
$1.10 per door / month · No credit card · 30-day full-access trial · No minimum
Everything you need to self-manage
The tools a management company charges 8-10% for — running for a little over a dollar a door.
Get paid on time
Residents pay rent by ACH (free) or card, and auto-pay charges the saved method every month — so you are not chasing checks. Card fees pass through, never absorbed.
Stay compliant with your state
Deposit deadlines, pay-or-quit notices, and late-fee caps resolve automatically from each property’s state — all 50 states and DC, every value cited to its statute.
A real resident portal
Your tenants get their own login to pay rent, file maintenance requests with a live status timeline, and see their lease — the same portal a big management company would give them.
Maintenance without the mess
Every request is logged, prioritized by AI triage, and tracked to done — with a full history on the unit so nothing falls through the cracks.
Fill your own vacancies
Post a listing, take rental inquiries answered in about a minute (fair-housing screened), track applications with AI fraud analysis, and sign the lease online with e-sign.
Know the rules before you need them
Browse your state’s landlord-tenant rules any time — deposit windows, notice periods, and late-fee limits — so the paperwork is right the first time.
Know your state's rules
The costly mistakes in self-management are the legal ones — a mishandled deposit or a bad notice. Forge wires notices and deposit handling to the statutes your rental is accountable to, resolved automatically from the property's state.
Browse landlord-tenant rules by state- Security-deposit return deadlines, per state
- Pay-or-quit and notice periods that match your state

Forge is software, not a law firm, and this is not legal advice. Compliance profiles are cited to primary statutes to help you act correctly, but you remain responsible for your own compliance.

Questions, answered
Is Forge overkill if I only have a few units?
No. Forge works from a single door up. You pay $1.10 per door per month, so a handful of units costs a few dollars — and you get the same rent collection, compliance, and resident portal a large company would use.
How much does it cost for a landlord?
$1.10 per door per month after a 30-day free trial. No setup fees, no minimum unit count, cancel anytime. You are only billed for the doors you actually manage.
Does Forge know the rules in my state?
Yes. Forge's compliance engine covers all 50 states and DC. Deposit deadlines, pay-or-quit notices, and late-fee caps resolve automatically from each property's state, and every state's profile is cited to its primary statutes. Browse your state at forgepm.ai/states. Forge is software, not a law firm — you remain responsible for your own compliance.
Do my tenants have to use it?
They get a resident portal to pay rent and file maintenance, but you can also record payments you collect any other way. Nothing forces a tenant online — it just makes on-time rent easier for both of you.
Can I switch to managing for other owners later?
Yes. Forge is one product with two modes. If you start managing rentals for other owners, you can turn on the full property-management toolkit — owner portals, disbursements, and management-fee tracking — without moving your data.
Your rentals, professionally run.
