RentCheck alternatives for landlords

Why landlords look for a RentCheck alternative

RentCheck is an inspection app built around tenant led inspections. Its pricing page, checked October 2026, shows three plans called Launch, Accelerate and Velocity, priced per door per month with a 14 day free trial. Launch lists unlimited inspections and users, a PMS integration, 9 ready to use templates, and time stamped photo, 360 and video capture. Accelerate and Velocity add automations, custom templates and an AI Damage Assist feature.

That model works well when you want residents to do routine inspections so your team travels less. Many small landlords and growing managers want something else:

• They walk the unit themselves at move in and move out, and want an app built for that walkthrough.
• They want a fixed monthly price they can see on the site, not a price that climbs with every door.
• They want a free plan for their first couple of units.
• They want the move out report to settle the deposit, with each repair charge itemized and priced in the unit.
• They manage in Canada, the US, or both.

Quick picks

The alternatives in detail

1. Easy Inspections, our top pick

Easy Inspections is an iPhone app for move in, move out and routine rental inspections with photo reports. Where RentCheck is built for tenants to inspect, Easy Inspections is built for the landlord or manager doing the walkthrough. Its headline advantage is customizable, itemized move out repair charges priced on site. You add each repair item in the room, set its price on the spot, and the finished report settles the damage deposit return or the fees charged back to the tenant right at move out.

• Free for 0 to 2 units, forever.
• Starter is $9.99/mo for 3 to 10 units and Portfolio is $29.99/mo for 11 to 50 units, with larger fixed plans up to 500 units.
• A fixed plan price with no per unit surcharge, so adding a door inside your plan does not raise the bill.
• Works in Canada and the US.

2. zInspector

zInspector is an inspection app with customizable templates and reports, built for inspections your own team carries out. Its free plan covers 1 user and up to 5 properties, and paid plans are priced in a calculator on its site. It lists Canada and US availability and integrations with Rentec Direct on lower plans and AppFolio, Propertyware, Rentvine and Buildium (beta) on its Plus plan.

3. Inspectify

Inspectify offers inspection services and software for property operators. It suits teams that want inspections done for them rather than by tenants or in house staff. Pricing is not published, so check the vendor site.

4. HappyCo

HappyCo is an inspections and maintenance operations platform for large multifamily operators, with quote based pricing. If you are a small landlord, see our HappyCo alternatives too.

Tenant led or landlord led inspections?

Tenant led inspections save travel on routine checks, but the move out is where the money is. That is the inspection most likely to end in a deposit dispute, and it is the one where you want your own eyes, matching photos and a priced list of repairs.

1. 01Do the move in yourself and get it signed. See How to do a move in inspection.
2. 02Use the same room by room list at both ends. Our rental inspection checklist covers every room.
3. 03Use tenant or quick routine checks during the tenancy if they suit you. See the routine rental inspection guide.
4. 04At move out, separate normal wear and tear from damage and price each damage item.
5. 05Send an itemized deduction statement within the deadline your province or state sets.
