REI Hub

REI Hub is accounting software for US rental-property owners, real estate investors, and the financial professionals who work with them. It suits people who need property-level books and tax reporting more than tenant-facing operations. Its accounting focus is useful, but its US-dollar-only design and lack of property-management tools narrow its fit.

Overview

REI Hub uses double-entry accounting and provides Profit and Loss, Statement of Cash Flows, and Balance Sheet reports. It reports by property or unit on every plan and can produce an IRS Schedule E report for each property. Owner statements, bank reconciliation, tenant charges, and both accounting bases are also supported.

The service connects bank and credit-card accounts through Plaid and Yodlee using read-only transaction feeds. REI Hub says it does not access bank credentials through those providers. It also imports property and payment information from TurboTenant and RentRedi, and consumes Airbnb and VRBO payout statements for short-term and vacation rentals.

Key features

Accounting and tax reporting

Property- and unit-level reporting keeps portfolio results segmented, while the financial statements provide a broader accounting view. Schedule E output is a practical strength for US owners preparing rental-property tax reporting. The Free plans include revenue and expense tracking, real-estate-specific categorization, loan and fixed-asset tracking, and Schedule E and tax reports; the Professional plans add automatic transaction import and booking rules.

Connected transactions

Read-only bank feeds can reduce manual transaction entry without granting REI Hub access to bank credentials, according to the company. Integrations with TurboTenant and RentRedi bring in property and payment information, while Airbnb and VRBO payout statements address short-term rental income. These connections support accounting workflows, not rent collection or tenant management inside REI Hub.

Security and support

REI Hub says it uses administrative, technical, and physical measures to help protect personal information. All customers can contact support by email or by phone at (888) 939-6865 during 9am–5pm EST business hours.

Pricing

REI Hub is freemium, with a free plan and a 14-day trial. Its Free tiers span up to 3, up to 10, up to 20, or unlimited units and include revenue and expense tracking, real-estate-specific categorization, loan and fixed-asset tracking, and Schedule E and tax reports. They do not include the automatic transaction import or booking rules specified for Professional.

Professional is priced annually: $9 a year for up to 3 units, $15 a year for up to 10 units, $27 a year for up to 20 units, and $48 a year for unlimited units. Each tier includes automatic transaction import, automatic booking rules, revenue and expense tracking, and loan and fixed-asset tracking. The unit caps make the smaller tiers suitable for compact portfolios, while the unlimited tier avoids a stated unit ceiling. Free plan pricing is custom pricing.

Platforms

REI Hub is available on web, Android, and iOS. Its mobile apps are companions to the web version and do not provide all web functionality, so users who need the complete feature set should plan to use the web app. The software supports and displays US dollars only; it cannot switch currencies or calculate exchanges.

Who it's for

REI Hub is a good fit for US rental-property owners, real estate investors, and their financial professionals who want property-level accounting, financial statements, and Schedule E reporting. Its payout imports also suit short-term rental owners who need those receipts incorporated into their accounting.

It is not a substitute for property-management software: it does not offer rent collection, listing services, tenant management or screening, or maintenance coordination. Owners operating across currencies or needing those tenant-facing functions should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Property- and unit-level reporting on every plan makes portfolio accounting more granular than a single portfolio-wide view.
• Pros: Schedule E reports for each property and core financial statements support both tax preparation and regular accounting.
• Pros: Plaid and Yodlee feeds, partner imports, and Airbnb and VRBO payout statements cover several common transaction sources.
• Cons: The software is limited to US dollars and cannot calculate currency exchanges, excluding many international portfolios.
• Cons: The mobile apps do not include all web functionality, which may constrain users who rely on a phone for the full workflow.
• Cons: No rent collection, tenant services, or maintenance coordination means owners still need separate property-management tools.

Alternatives

For a broader comparison, see Property Accounting Software. Choose Brikone if its free plan for up to 3 units is a better fit. Hemlane may suit owners who want rental advertising, applicant and tenant screening, and rental accounting on a free plan. Consider Hutstack Property for its free tier aimed at landlords managing 1–10 properties, with rent tracking, tenant records, lease reminders, maintenance requests, expense tracking, and an owner dashboard.

Landlord Studio is another freemium option; its Go plan is free for 3 units, one user, and 10 documents, with standard reports and standard chat and email support. For a paid property-management product with custom pricing, consider MRI Property Management X, which invites prospective customers to request a demo. MRI Palace, Rent Manager, and Entrata are also alternatives.

Verdict

Choose REI Hub if you need US-dollar rental-property accounting with property-level reporting and Schedule E output, especially when bank feeds and rental-platform payout imports match your workflow. Look elsewhere if your operation needs tenant and maintenance management, complete mobile functionality, or multi-currency accounting.
