Texas first
DoorLog was built in Dallas–Fort Worth for Texas landlords. The parts of the Texas Property Code that independent landlords most often get wrong are enforced by the software on every door, so the deadline is on your screen and the cap is already applied.
With an itemized statement of any deduction. The clock starts when the tenant moves out and is on your screen from that day.
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.
Twelve percent of monthly rent on a building of four doors or fewer, ten percent above that. The cap is applied automatically.
When you record a move-out, the door’s file shows the day the deposit is due back and counts down. The deposit statement is drafted from the move-in and move-out photo pairs, so every deduction has its evidence attached and the statement is itemized the way the Code requires. You review, set the amounts, and send it. The return is recorded on the same file.
Rent posts on the due date. A late fee, if your lease provides one, is scheduled for the first moment the law allows and not a minute earlier, whatever the lease says. The fee and the rule it followed are both written to the record.
DoorLog knows how many doors a building has. A late fee is capped at 12% of the monthly rent for a building of four or fewer units and 10% above that. If a lease names a higher fee, the cap wins.
Thirty days after the tenant surrenders the premises, with a written, itemized list of any deductions. DoorLog starts the clock on the move-out date and drafts the itemized statement from the move-in and move-out photo pairs.
Only after rent has remained unpaid for two full days after the due date, and only if the lease provides for the fee in writing. DoorLog will not post a late fee earlier than the law allows.
For a building with four or fewer units, up to 12% of the monthly rent; for more than four units, up to 10%. DoorLog caps the fee automatically.
No. Deductions must be for damage beyond normal wear and tear, and must be itemized. DoorLog lets you mark a difference as normal wear so it appears on the statement with no charge.
30 days free on every plan
Pick a plan, add a card, and you are signed in. Your first door takes about ten minutes: the address, the tenant, the lease, the rent. Nothing is charged for 30 days and you can leave with your records at any time.
