Five things people ask.
The questions that come up when choosing between LeaseDock and Tenurly, answered straight.
Is LeaseDock more expensive than Tenurly?
Usually, yes. Tenurly’s Starter plan is free for one property with up to three rooms, and its Portfolio plan is $29 a month including GST for unlimited properties and rooms.
LeaseDock is $29 a month for up to 4 tenancies, $49 for up to 15 and $99 for up to 40, with Enterprise from 41 tenancies priced to fit. Empty rooms don’t count. What LeaseDock adds is your state’s agreements filled in and signed online, compliance dates for each property, and condition reports and routine inspections.
Does either one collect the rent?
No. With both, renters pay into your own bank account. Tenurly records the payment or the proof a tenant uploads, for you to approve. LeaseDock matches the payments in your bank’s CSV export, or deposits reconciled in Xero, for you to confirm.
Can LeaseDock fill in a rooming house or boarding house agreement?
Yes, in four states: the occupancy agreement for a NSW boarding house, Victoria’s fixed-term rooming house agreement (Form 7), Queensland’s rooming accommodation agreement (Form R18) and South Australia’s rooming house agreement. The resident signs in their portal and you countersign.
Does LeaseDock check my room rents against the market?
No. Tenurly’s Portfolio plan compares each room with Flatmates asking rents in the same suburb. LeaseDock has nothing like it, so if that matters most to you, Tenurly is the better fit.
