You're paying enterprise prices for software built for someone else

The big platforms were designed for institutions with thousands of doors and a back office to run them. If you manage a few dozen units, you're funding features you will never open.

$280 a month, minimum

And only after you clear a 50-unit floor you may never reach. Most small operators can't even get a quote.

Punished for growing

Per-door pricing means every new unit you take on is one more charge on their bill.

Paying for bloat

A sprawling system built for institutions, where you use a sliver and pay for the whole thing.

Setup is a project

Implementation fees and weeks of onboarding before you can collect a single dollar of rent.

Stuck by design

Moving your data sounds worse than staying, so you stay, and the meter just keeps running.

Built for someone else

Designed for a back office and a training budget that an owner-operator simply doesn't have.

There is a tool built for operators like you, not the institutions. It does the handful of things you actually need, and it does them well.

Up and running in an afternoon

Three steps. No onboarding consultant, no implementation fee, no six-week migration.

1

Import

Drop in your AppFolio export or your lease PDFs. The AI reads them and builds your properties, tenants, and leases for you. Minutes, not weeks.

2

Manage

Rent, maintenance, leases, owner statements, and documents all live in one clean place. If your dad can use it, anyone can.

3

Get paid

Tenants pay online by bank or card, and they cover the processing fee. Money settles straight into your account. You stop chasing checks.

The hard part, made easy

Switching is the reason you never left. Not anymore.

Everywhere else, moving your data is a dreaded, billable, weeks-long project, so most people just stay put and keep overpaying. KeyTurn flips that. Hand us your existing AppFolio export, or even a stack of lease PDFs, and the AI rebuilds your entire portfolio inside the app for you.

And your data is always yours, never ours. You keep it, and you can take it with you any time you want. No gatekeeping. No hostage-taking. No games.

Upload one spreadsheet today. Run your business on KeyTurn tomorrow.

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Built for property managers who want to spend less time in software and more time growing their business.

Payments, done honestly

You keep the full rent. We never take a cut of it.

Most platforms quietly pull the payment fee out of the rent before it reaches you, or bill it back to your side after the fact. KeyTurn never touches your rent. Payments run through the tenant portal, the small fee is shown to the tenant before they confirm, and we point them at the cheapest way to pay. What lands in your account is the full amount on the lease.

It is transparent on purpose. The tenant sees exactly what they pay, you see exactly what you receive, and nobody is skimming anything in the background. That is the opposite of how the big platforms work.

Rent on the lease$1,400.00
Tenant pays by bank / e-check+ $7.99
or by debit / credit card+ 3.25% + $0.50
You receive$1,400.00
The tenant sees the exact fee before they confirm, and we point them to the cheaper bank payment. Either way the full $1,400.00 lands in your account. No skim, no cut out of your side.

Built by someone who's actually done the work.

Founder · Fort Worth, TX

I'm an attorney by trade, but real estate has been the through-line my whole life. I started swinging a hammer as a kid. I've replaced toilets, patched drywall, chased leaks at 2am, and mediated more tenant disputes than I can count. I worked at a title company. I helped my parents grow their property management business in Fort Worth. Most of my close friends run small-to-medium PM operations like ours, and we all complain about the same thing.

Every property management software was built for institutional landlords. Priced like institutional landlords. Stuffed with features we'll never use, behind a login that takes a 30-minute training session to navigate. We don't manage 5,000 doors with a dedicated IT team. We manage 15 to 200 doors, and we want software that respects our time and our budget.

That's why I built KeyTurn. It's the tool I wish my parents had ten years ago. One flat monthly fee. Rent collection, maintenance tracking, lease management, and an AI assistant who handles the busywork. Skip the bloat that exists mostly to justify enterprise pricing built for portfolios ten times yours.

If your operation looks like ours, this is built for you.

Is this for you?

KeyTurn is built for the operators the big platforms forgot. If you see yourself below, you're our person.

The family-run shop

25 to 200 doors

Mom and Dad started managing properties twenty years ago. Now there's a sibling answering the phones, a cousin doing the books, and a vendor list scrawled in a binder. AppFolio won't even quote you for less than $280 a month. The other big platforms aren't much friendlier. You're paying enterprise prices for tools designed for portfolios ten times yours, and using maybe 15% of what's there.

Fits like a glove.

The accidental landlord

3 to 25 doors

You inherited a fourplex, or you bought a couple rentals as your retirement plan, and somehow you've ended up running a property management business. You don't want to hire a PM company. You want a single tool that handles rent, maintenance requests, and lease tracking without making you feel like an idiot.

Built with you in mind.

The small PM company

100 to 500 doors

You manage for a handful of owners, you have one or two employees, and you're tired of paying enterprise software prices for tools designed for portfolios ten times your size. You want to spend less time inside software and more time growing the business.

Right-sized for the way you work.
Not for you if

You manage 1,000+ doors with a dedicated office staff, you need deep integrations with institutional accounting platforms, or you require a custom RFP/onboarding process. You'll be happier with AppFolio Property Manager Plus or Yardi. We won't be hurt.
