Streamlining your rent collection

Hands-Free Rent Collection is an add-on to our self-management platform. It gives you the hands-off rent collection experience you might expect from an agent, while keeping you in the loop and in control.

How it works

Rent collection

myRent collects & reconciles your rent payments

myRent collects the rent, reconciles, chases arrears, and notifies you when the payment is received and on the way to your account. We know how important it is to receive rent on time, so we want to get it to you as fast as possible. Rent is transferred to you the same day it clears myRent's bank account (usually within one business day).

Late payments

Chasing arrears

We understand the challenges of dealing with missed payments. We follow up immediately on any missed rent payments. If a payment fails to arrive on our system, we will notify you and your tenants promptly. We then keep you in control by giving you various options to resolve any rent-related issues swiftly and efficiently, including serving and e-signing rent arrears notices, 14-day notices to remedy, payment plans, or simple check-ins that are third party tracked.

Stay in the loop

Real-time notifications

When your rent is received and reconciled, you and your tenants are notified so everyone is kept in the loop.

Compliance

Record keeping

The Hands-Free Rent Collection service also takes care of the necessary record keeping. As a landlord, you are legally required to keep records of rent payments and documents. With myRent, this record keeping is done for you, saving you time and ensuring compliance with legal requirements.
