Baselane — Pros & Cons

Pros

Free tier includes real FDIC-insured banking plus bookkeeping — no credit card or paid plan required
Property-specific sub-accounts partition funds by address without opening separate bank accounts
Auto-tags every transaction to IRS Schedule E categories, cutting tax prep time significantly at year-end
Built-in rent collection via ACH, card, and auto late fees eliminates the need for a separate payment tool

Cons

No native mobile app as of mid-2025 — landlords must manage via a mobile web browser
Customer support is notably slow — users report days for chat responses and weeks to schedule a call
Not a full property management platform: no maintenance ticketing, lease storage, or tenant screening
Transaction and withdrawal limits on the free tier can frustrate investors with larger or higher-volume portfolios
