About

August is a UK-based property management app built specifically for small landlords who want a simple, compliant way to manage their rental properties. The platform focuses on compliance obligations, offering automated reminders for key requirements like Safety Certificates and tenancy documents. A standout feature is its integrated August Intelligence which allows users to upload a tenancy document and the app then populates the property and tenancy automatically. It also provides contextually aware responses to questions the landlord has on their properties or tenancies, like “what was may void period on the property on Hawthorn Road”. The interface is clean, mobile-native and easy to navigate, making it ideal for landlords with one to ten properties. Their tenants can use the app too. While August doesn’t offer accounting yet their website does indicate this is coming. For self-managing landlords, August offers a lightweight, robust alternative to complex web-based tools.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It is so intuitive to use. I uploaded my tenancy agreements and it filled in everything! Market value, EPC rating, tax bands, compliance dates, even property-specific action lists. What used to take me hours and hours of tedium entry data manually took less than 5 minutes for all five properties. Getting my tenants on board was just as easy. I can upload a certificate or agreement and send it off with the click of a button. No more printing or scanning. It is difficult to find software that does this much without being complex.

Cons

  • They still don't allow to log expenses so I can't get rid of my spreadsheet yet. Also I wish they had all the calculators on the website in the app.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • 1. This platform brings several regular property management tasks into one system, which reduces the need to keep switching between separate tools. 2. The accounting and reporting features help me keep track of financial information without maintaining every detail in a separate spreadsheet. 3. Maintenance work orders give me a more organized way to follow repair requests and share details with vendors. 4. The tenant and owner portals provide a central place for people to access relevant information instead of relying entirely on direct messages. 5. The 30-day free trial gave me time to test the interface and decide whether the $29 monthly base subscription plus $1 per unit made sense for my need
  • RentPost's owner statements have been useful for our monthly reporting process. I can review the recorded financial activity and prepare statements without assembling the same information from multiple files. The owner portal also gives property owners access to relevant financial information, which reduces some routine document requests. For a management company handling several properties, having a consistent reporting process makes month-end work easier to organise.
  • I manage several properties with different tenants and owners, so keeping everything separate without making the whole process confusing was important to me. RentPost lets me organize the property information, tenant records and financial details around the individual properties. I can move between properties without having to dig through separate spreadsheets to figure out which information belongs where. That sounds basic, but it was becoming surprisingly annoying with my old setup.
  • I found RentPost on Reddit when I was looking for something that could handle applications without making me jump between five different places. The application side lets me collect the information and documents I need, run screening, and then move an approved applicant into the tenant workflow. That last part is what sold me. I don't have to copy everything over again just because someone got approved. The signed lease can also stay with the tenant's records, which makes finding it later way less annoying.
  • 1. Vendors can get the work-order details instead of me explaining everything over the phone. 2. Photos can be attached to the request. I can assign the work and keep the updates with that job. 3. Comments mean I don't have to remember what was said three days ago. 4. Having the maintenance history there is helpful when the same property has another issue later.

Cons

  • Having lots of features is useful, but it can also make the system feel more involved than I need for a quick task.
  • Owners with different reporting expectations may require additional explanation beyond the figures presented.
  • It took some time to decide how I wanted everything organized.
  • There are quite a few application settings, so getting everything exactly how I wanted took some trial and error.
  • Getting vendors to actually check the system instead of texting me took some convincing.
