The AI property manager for California rentals

RentShepherd is the all-in-one AI property management platform for California landlords and property management companies. It answers tenant calls and texts 24/7, triages repairs into tracked work orders, collects rent automatically, and preps lease renewals — across dense apartment corridors in Los Angeles and the Bay Area, college markets from Berkeley to San Diego, and backyard ADUs in single-family neighborhoods. You approve every decision with one tap; it handles the rest.

The California rental market, minus the after-hours part

In Los Angeles, San Diego, and San Francisco, the story repeats: dense apartment corridors in Los Angeles and the Bay Area, college markets from Berkeley to San Diego, and backyard ADUs in single-family neighborhoods. Every one of those tenants expects an answer the moment something breaks — and for most self-managing landlords, that answer is you, at every hour. RentShepherd changes the math. Tenants text or call one number and always reach a calm, capable assistant that logs the request, assesses urgency, and knows when to wake you and when to let you sleep.

There's no local office to wait on and none needed: RentShepherd works anywhere in California from day one. Add your units, tenants, lease dates, and preferred local vendors, share the number with tenants, and the front line is live. You stay the decision-maker — every dispatch, renewal offer, and unusual situation still comes to you as a one-tap approval.

Features

What RentShepherd handles for California rentals

Every feature below runs 24/7 for California landlords and property managers on the plans that include it.

Triage that knows a burst pipe from a dripping tap

A burst pipe at 2am is treated as the emergency it is; a dripping tap waits for morning. RentShepherd's triage sorts every California repair request the moment it arrives — urgent issues reach you with full context in minutes, routine ones queue quietly for morning.

Lease renewals, never last-minute

90-, 60-, and 30-day renewal checkpoints with drafted tenant outreach, so notice periods never sneak past you — and good California tenants get a renewal offer before they start browsing listings.

A monthly report per property

Rent collected, repairs opened and resolved, upcoming lease dates, every conversation summarized — one clean page per property per month. Property managers across California can hand them straight to their owners.

One secured dashboard for the whole portfolio

Whether you hold one California rental or manage whole buildings, everything lives on a single secured screen: tenants, threads, work orders, payments, leases. No spreadsheet stitching required.

Every call and text, answered 24/7

One number for every tenant in your California portfolio. Texts get instant, accurate replies; calls are answered, triaged, and transcribed. Nothing rings through to you at midnight unless it truly should.

Simple pricing for California portfolios of any size

Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial — no card required, cancel anytime. Prices in USD, the same in California as everywhere else.

  • Starter — up to 3 units$29/mo
  • Growth — up to 12 units Most popular$79/mo
  • Portfolio — up to 30 units$149/mo
  • Enterprise — unlimited units for property management companies and large portfoliosCustom

Compare: a traditional property manager charging 8–10% of rent costs a landlord collecting $6,000/mo between $480 and $600 — every month, with less of your say.

Put an AI on the front line of your California rentals

Setup takes about 15 minutes: add units, tenants, lease dates, and your preferred vendors. From that moment, every tenant message gets answered — day or night.
