Features built for orderly landlord records
Tennly gives independent landlords purpose-built tools for every stage of tenancy management—without spreadsheet chaos or enterprise software bloat.
Listings with published criteria up front
Create clean vacancy listings with dedicated apply links. Every listing clearly displays rent, security deposit terms, and your written screening criteria before applicants pay a screening fee.
This ensures applicants see your written standards before they apply.
Vacancy listing · Cedar Duplex, Unit 2
Active- Monthly gross income of at least 3.0x monthly rent
- Minimum credit score of 620 from verified consumer report
- Eviction judgment lookback limited to 4 years (Oregon default)
- Thin-file applications routed to individual review
Privacy-first applicant intake
Applicants fill out a straightforward web application without creating accounts or setting passwords. Tennly records employment history, verifiable income, occupancy counts, and consent timestamps.
Tennly never asks for Social Security numbers, dates of birth, or bank details.
Uniform screening audits & adverse action notices
Audit every applicant consistently against your published criteria. When a screening decision is made, Tennly stores an immutable criteria snapshot and decision timestamp.
If an application is conditioned or denied based on consumer report findings, federal law (FCRA 15 U.S.C. § 1681m) requires specific written disclosures. Tennly formats official adverse-action notices, blocking generation until your Consumer Reporting Agency contact details are recorded.

Accountant's rent ledger with state-aware late fees
Post monthly rent in one step, track running tenant balances with signed tabular figures, and apply late fees using editable presets informed by state statutes.
Whether applying Oregon's 4-day grace period (ORS 90.260), Texas's 2-day grace period, or New York's 5-day grace rules, presets ensure late fees are assessed predictably and fairly.
Sequential receipts for cash and check payments
When tenants pay rent in cash, state laws in jurisdictions such as New York (Real Property Law § 235-e) and Texas (Property Code § 92.011) require issuing an immediate written receipt.
Tennly automatically generates numbered, formatted receipts with your custom business prefix, line-item charge allocations, and recorded signatures, ready to print or email.
