New Year, New Tools: Why HELM Is the Low-Cost Property Management Software You Need

Updated: Mar 24

As the New Year begins, many of us set ambitious goals to improve our personal and professional lives. Did you know that real estate investors lose countless hours each year juggling outdated tools?


For real estate investors, it’s the perfect time to upgrade your processes and reclaim your time. If you’ve been relying on methods like spreadsheets, cash or check payments, and manual tenant communications, it’s time to embrace smarter solutions.


Enter HELM PM Software: the low-cost property management solution designed specifically for everyday real estate investors. And to make 2024 even better, we’re offering a 90-day free trial to help you start the year off right.


The Challenge: Old-School Tools in a New-School World

Managing properties isn’t what it used to be. Gone are the days when handwritten ledgers and mailed checks were sufficient. For example, imagine Mike, a first-time landlord managing a duplex. He used to rely on paper checks and a notebook to track rent payments. One month, a tenant’s check got lost in the mail, throwing his entire budget off track.


With HELM, Mike now collects rent online and tracks payments in real-time, making his job as a landlord much smoother and less stressful. Today’s renters expect a seamless experience, and landlords need tools that can keep up. Unfortunately, many property management solutions are either too expensive, overly complicated, or designed with corporate property managers in mind—not the everyday real estate investor. That’s where HELM stands out.


Why HELM Property Management Software Is the Right Choice for You

HELM is built on three core principles, each designed to address the most common pain points faced by real estate investors:


  1. Low Cost:

The average property management software costs between $50 and $100 per month. HELM offers a full suite of features for just $19.99 per month. Our pricing model is transparent, with no hidden fees or costly add-ons.


  1. Intuitive Design:

You don’t need to be a tech guru to use HELM. Our platform is easy to navigate, saving you time and reducing frustration so you can focus on managing your properties.


  1. Full Service:

Managing properties often means relying on a patchwork of tools and services. HELM consolidates everything—from rent collection and tenant screening to service requests—into one seamless platform, eliminating inefficiencies and juggling multiple systems.


Key Features That Make HELM Stand Out


  1. Built for Everyday Investors

Unlike many property management tools that cater to large-scale property management companies, HELM is designed with the everyday investor in mind. Whether you own a single rental property or a small portfolio, HELM provides the tools you need without the unnecessary complexities. Imagine Sarah, a part-time landlord who owns two rental properties. Before HELM, she struggled to keep track of payments and lease agreements. Now, Sarah uses HELM to simplify her operations and free up time for her family. HELM is truly tailored to the needs of investors like Sarah.


  1. Rent Collection and Tracking

No more chasing down tenants for late payments. HELM's rent collection feature, powered by ACH payments through our partnership with Checkbook.io, ensures you get paid on time. Plus, our tracking system gives you a clear, real-time view of your financials.


  1. Tenant Screening

Choosing the right tenants is crucial for your investment’s success. HELM partners with RentPrep to provide top-notch tenant screening services, helping you make informed decisions with confidence.


  1. Direct Messaging

Say goodbye to juggling multiple communication channels. With HELM, you can send messages directly to your tenants through the app, keeping all communication organized and accessible.


  1. Templated Contracts

Need a lease agreement? HELM offers preloaded templates that save you time and reduce legal risks. You can create professional contracts in minutes.


  1. Service Request Management

Whether it’s a leaky faucet or a broken HVAC system, HELM simplifies service requests by connecting you with the right professionals through our HELM Partners Program.


HELM vs. the Competition

While there are plenty of property management tools on the market, HELM's unique combination of affordability, simplicity, and comprehensive features sets it apart. Many platforms might lure you in with low initial costs but hit you with add-on fees for essential features. HELM is different. Imagine getting everything you need—all for just $19.99/month—without worrying about surprise costs. It’s the ultimate value for everyday real estate investors.


Why Now Is the Time to Try HELM

Starting the year with a clear vision and the right tools can make all the difference. With HELM's 90-day free trial, you can explore features like seamless rent collection, professional tenant screening, and streamlined communication—all tailored for everyday real estate investors. Experience how HELM simplifies property management, saves time, and boosts efficiency from day one.
