Moving from TurboTenant

Cards off with one switch. Unlimited California leases at $0.

TurboTenant charges $39 to $79 per lease on its free tier and cannot turn card payments off, so a tenant's chargeback lands on you. Sproutly has one account-wide switch for card payments, and a tenant who pays you directly by Zelle, bill pay or check pays nothing. Card through the portal is 2.9% + 30¢, paid by the tenant and never by you. Online bank transfer through Sproutly is not offered right now. Sproutly includes the California lease with every disclosure, and imports your TurboTenant CSV in one step.

Bringing your units over? The TurboTenant CSV imports from Settings once you are signed in. Nothing is written until you confirm the preview.

Sproutly

Price to you
$0 for rent tracking and reminders, leases, applications, maintenance and the portal, on every unit.
What the tenant pays
Nothing when they pay you directly by Zelle, bill-pay or check. Online card payments carry a processing fee set by the processor (estimated at 2.9% plus 30 cents, paid by the tenant). They are on by default and one switch turns them off. Online bank transfer through Sproutly is not offered right now.
California notices and paperwork
Pay-or-quit notice, rent increase notice and deposit statement forms, all free. Each one is drafted from the values you enter, with a place to record how it was served. You check the official source. General information, not legal advice.
City ordinances
Where to check links for Los Angeles, San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose.
Three things TurboTenant does not do

Where the notice earns its place

Cards off with one switch

Turn cards off for the whole account and there is no card chargeback. Paying you directly by Zelle, bill pay or check is free to the tenant. Online bank transfer through Sproutly is not offered right now.

The California lease is included

Lease forms with the California disclosure texts you choose to attach, such as bed bug, flood and Megan's Law. Every lease, every unit, $0.

The notice when the day comes

Notice drafts with the dates you enter, rent increase drafts, and a deposit return page with a deadline you set. TurboTenant stops at the lease.

Move the units over, then use the deposit statement when the day comes.

Free account, no card. Nothing is charged for the notice.
