Property management · Texas first

Every door has a history.

One complete file per door: the lease, the rent, the deposit, the photos, the repairs and every document. Rent posts itself. Photos pair themselves. The deposit statement drafts itself from the evidence.

What the file does on its own

The rent, the photos and the deposit take care of themselves. You take care of the door.

Everything a landlord does at every tenancy is built in, not metered. Rent posts on the first. Photos are paired room by room. The statement is drafted from the pairs. You review and sign.

The money

Rent posts itself, into your own bank.

On the first, rent is posted to the door. Autopay pulls it by bank transfer or card through Stripe into your account. DoorLog never holds a dollar of it. A late fee posts only when Texas says it may, and never above the cap.

  • Online rent on every plan, including Starter
  • Venmo, Zelle and cheques logged against the same record
  • Reminders before rent, receipts after
  • A record that is only ever added to, never edited

The condition

Photos pair themselves, room by room.

Walk the property on your phone at move-in. Walk it again at move-out. DoorLog lines the two up, wall for wall, so the scuff, the nail holes and the stain are not a matter of memory. Both parties sign each set.

  • Guided by room, so nothing is skipped
  • Works standing in the doorway, on a phone
  • Photos stay with the door, not in a camera roll

The deposit

The statement drafts itself from the evidence.

Every difference the photos show becomes a line, with the photo attached. You set the amount, DoorLog does the arithmetic and the letter, and the 30-day clock is on the screen from the day the keys come back.

  • Itemized, with the move-in and move-out photo on every line
  • Returned by bank transfer, recorded in the same file
  • Texas timing and wording built in

Leases signed online

An emailed link, both parties sign, a signing record on the lease. Unlimited on Professional and up.

A resident portal

Tenants pay, ask for a repair with a photo and keep their own copies. No jargon, no app store.

Repairs with photos

From the tenant's phone to a vendor's quote to a paid invoice, all on the door's file.

Documents by role

Owners, staff and tenants each see what they are entitled to. Nothing is served by a public link.

On your phone, installed

Add it to the home screen. Every screen is built for a thumb, not squeezed down from a desktop.

Sign in with Google or Apple

No new password to lose. Managers, owners and tenants all sign in at the same door.

Two front doors

You see the portfolio. They see their home.

The same file, two very different screens. Yours is dense with numbers. Theirs has one number that matters and no jargon at all: nobody should have to learn the word “ledger” to pay the rent.

Manage

The seven things to check today

Owners, staff and vendors each get a login scoped to what they may see.

Texas first

The rules are in the product, not in a PDF you meant to read.

Built in Dallas–Fort Worth for Texas landlords first. The three deadlines and caps that get independent landlords into trouble are enforced by the software, on every door. More states are coming; each one arrives the same way.

30days

To return the deposit

With an itemized statement of any deduction. The clock starts when the tenant moves out and is on your screen from that day.

Tex. Prop. Code § 92.103
2full days

Before any late fee

A fee may post only after rent is two full days late. DoorLog will not post one a minute sooner, however the lease is worded.

Tex. Prop. Code § 92.019
12% · 10%

The late-fee ceiling

Twelve percent of monthly rent on a building of four doors or fewer, ten percent above that. The cap is applied automatically.
