Property management software for California brokerages
Rent, trust accounting and owners, in one place.
RentDonkey is software for licensed property management brokerages. Collect rent online into your own trust account, send owner statements, e-sign leases and track repairs, with portals for your tenants and owners under your brokerage’s name.
What you get
One subscription for your brokerage covers every property, owner, tenant and staff login.
Online rent, straight to your trust account
Tenants pay by bank transfer (ACH) or card, once or on autopay. Money settles in your own Stripe account and pays out to your trust account: RentDonkey never holds it.
Trust accounting that ties out
A ledger for every owner, separate security-deposit records, owner reserves, and a monthly reconciliation against your bank statement.
Owner portal and statements
Monthly owner statements, documents, messages and repair approvals in one place, with your brokerage’s name and logo on every page and email.
Leases, e-signed in order
Your own lease PDF goes out for e-signature: tenants first, then your broker countersigns. Or upload a lease already signed on paper.
Repairs, tracked to done
Tenants report repairs with photos and get clear emergency steps. Staff, owners and tenants see the same request and its history.
Built for California
Late-fee and deposit rules, the 21-day deposit itemization, DRE license on statements, and an audit log of every change.
How rent payments work
RentDonkey is the software. Your brokerage collects the rent.
- You connect your own Stripe accountStripe verifies your brokerage and pays out to your trust account.
- Tenants pay through their portalBy bank transfer or card, with any card fee shown before they pay.
- The money goes to youEach payment is charged on your account and recorded in your trust ledger automatically.
Payment security
- We never see card or bank numbers. Stripe, a PCI-certified payment processor, collects them on its own secure pages.
- Rent never passes through RentDonkey. It is charged directly on the brokerage’s Stripe account.
- Every page is served over HTTPS, sign-in uses one-time email links instead of passwords, and every change is recorded in an audit log.
