RentManager API
Programmatically access RentManager property, unit, lease, resident, accounting, and maintenance data with a stable REST API. Supergood builds and operates production-grade, unofficial RentManager integrations so your team can automate portfolio workflows without heavy custom engineering. Plain Engl
What is RentManager?
RentManager is a cloud platform for property management that centralizes portfolio operations, resident communication, accounting, and maintenance across residential and commercial properties. Teams use RentManager to manage properties and units, run leasing workflows, collect rent and fees, post charges and payments to resident ledgers, coordinate maintenance work orders and vendor assignments, and publish owner statements—supported by resident and owner portals.
Core product areas include:
- Portfolio & Unit Management (Properties, Buildings, Units, Amenities, Availability)
- Leasing & Resident Management (Applications, Leases, Renewals, Notices, Co-Residents)
- Accounting & Payments (Resident Ledgers, Charges, Recurring Charges, Payments, GL, Bank Reconciliation)
- Maintenance (Work Orders, Vendors, Scheduling, Inspections, Attachments)
- Owner & Vendor Management (Ownership, Disbursements, Vendor Records)
- Communications & Portals (Resident Portal, Owner Portal, Messaging, Documents)
- Marketing & Screening (Listings, Showings, Screening Integrations)
- Utilities & Metering (Utility Billing, Meter Reads)
Common data entities:
- Companies, Users, Roles/Permissions (Property Manager, Resident/Tenant, Owner, Vendor)
- Properties/Buildings/Units (metadata, addresses, availability, market rent)
- Leases (terms, rent/frequency, deposit, status, move-in/out dates)
- Residents/Tenants (contacts, co-residents, preferences)
- Ledger Transactions (charges, credits, payments, fees, refunds)
- Recurring Charges (rent schedules, utilities, add-ons)
- Work Orders (tickets, categories, priorities, scheduling, assignments)
- Vendors (contact info, service categories, compliance)
- Owners & Ownership (portfolios, statements, distributions)
- Bank Accounts & GL Accounts (codes, posting rules)
- Documents & Attachments (lease files, photos, invoices)
The RentManager Integration Challenge
Property management teams rely on RentManager daily, but turning portal- and report-based workflows into API-driven automation is non-trivial:
- API access and licensing: Many teams report that API access requires specific licensing or partner arrangements and can carry non-trivial costs
- Accounting rigor: Resident ledgers, GL accounts, deposits, and posting cycles demand careful handling to avoid double-posting or misclassification
- Portal-first features: Resident and owner portal flows (payments, maintenance, notices) are optimized for front-end interactions
- Data exports: Teams often depend on reports/CSV for bulk export; mapping those to normalized objects for automation is time-consuming
- Complex relationships: Properties > units > leases > residents link to financials, owners, and vendors, with custom fields and tenant-specific nuances
- Authentication complexity: SSO/MFA and session lifecycles complicate headless automation across role-based permissions
How Supergood Creates RentManager APIs
Supergood reverse-engineers authenticated browser flows and network interactions to deliver a resilient API endpoint layer for your RentManager tenant.
- Handles username/password, SSO/OAuth, and MFA (SMS, email, TOTP) securely
- Maintains session continuity with automated refresh and change detection
- Normalizes responses so you can integrate once and rely on consistent objects across modules
- Aligns with customer entitlements and role-based permissions to ensure compliant access
- Maps accounting objects (charges, payments, GL codes) with idempotency safeguards
- Supports attachments/uploads for documents, photos, and invoices

API Endpoints
Authentication
/sessionsEstablish a session using credentials. Supergood manages MFA (SMS, email, TOTP) and SSO/OAuth when enabled. Returns a short-lived auth token maintained by the platform.
Authentication
/sessions/refreshRefresh an existing token to keep sessions uninterrupted.
Properties
/propertiesList properties with summary metrics and optional unit details.
Leases
/leasesRetrieve leases with resident, unit, and balance details.
Charges
/leases/{leaseId}/chargesCreate a charge on a resident ledger (rent, utility, fee).
Work Orders
/work-ordersCreate a maintenance work order and optionally assign a vendor.
Work Orders
/work-orders/{workOrderId}Update status, scheduling, and assignment.
Use Cases
Portfolio & Resident Data Sync
- Mirror properties, units, leases, and residents into your internal systems - Keep occupancy, availability, and delinquency metrics current for analytics and reporting - Normalize addresses, statuses, and rent terms across portfolios
Leasing & Payments Automation
- Create one-time and recurring charges for rent, utilities, and fees from your product - Capture payments and reconcile against ledgers; sync summaries to ERP/accounting (e.g., QuickBooks, Xero) - Trigger notices (renewal, delinquency) and update lease terms programmatically
Maintenance & Work Orders
- Generate work orders from resident portal events, sensors, or field apps - Assign vendors, schedule visits, update status, and attach photos/documents - Feed maintenance data to your scheduling or compliance systems
Owner Reporting & Distribution
- Pull owner statements and balances for investor portals - Track distributions and integrate payout workflows - Provide consolidated, cross-portfolio reporting with standardized identifiers

Frequently asked questions
Supergood supports workflows across commonly used modules such as Portfolio/Unit Management, Leasing (Applications, Leases, Renewals), Accounting (Resident Ledgers, Charges, Payments, GL), Maintenance (Work Orders, Vendors), and Portals (Resident, Owner)—subject to your licensing and entitlements. We scope coverage during integration assessment.
We support username/password + MFA (SMS, email, TOTP) and can operate behind SSO/OAuth when enabled. Sessions are refreshed automatically with secure challenge handling.
Yes. We can normalize charges, payments, and GL-coded line items to match your ERP/accounting schema and deliver updates via webhooks or polling while complying with rate and permission constraints. We commonly integrate with QuickBooks and Xero.
Yes. We support downloading portal artifacts and uploading attachments via signed uploads, with checksum validation and time-limited URLs. Status changes, notes, and scheduling are modeled explicitly in our normalized responses.
