Rentable Items Overview

Rentable items are items not linked to a unit that can be rented to residents by any property or by a selected set of properties. Rentable items may be movable items, like washing machines. Parking spaces or storage lockers are other examples of rentable items.

When activated and set up, the rentable items option provides an itemized list of potential rentable items and the monthly rate for their rental. Rentable items setup also allows you to build an accounting trail by including rentable items in a general ledger account transaction.

Setting up rentable items policies is optional.
