Hey I m Walker, founder of EchoPM. We re launching on Product Hunt tomorrow.
I got tired of independent property managers paying enterprise prices to stitch together listing, apply, e-sign, rent, and a tenant portal while renters get application fees and five logins.
EchoPM is one platform for the full lease lifecycle. PMs publish units. Renters search and apply for free. Then the same record carries through screening, signing, move-in, rent, and maintenance. Per live unit, from $4.25. Tenant portal has no extra fee.
I ll be in this thread through launch. Ask about the product, the two-sided renter/manager split, pricing, or why we didn t lead with AI.
Today a vacant unit usually means: post somewhere, collect applications in email, screen in another tab, send a lease from a third tool, then stand up rent collection and a portal the tenant will hate.
On EchoPM the PM publishes once. Renters search and apply for free. The same record carries through screening, signing, move-in, rent, and maintenance.
If you self-manage (or you ve watched a PM do this): which step actually kills the week getting applications, deciding, getting the lease signed, or collecting month one?
Built for independent landlords and small PM shops tens to a few hundred doors who are stitching together a listing site, an apply form, e-sign, rent, and a tenant portal.
It is not:
A drop-in for a large AppFolio / Buildium shop that needs every accounting edge case on day one
A promise that we syndicate to every major listing site (export kit is live; deeper syndication is not GA)
AI that declines tenants. Ava helps with ops. Screening recommendations are manager-decided.
Hard tradeoff we made on purpose: one product for renters and managers, instead of a prettier PM dashboard bolted onto someone else s apply flow.
