RentGuard only watches it

Alerts delivered by email

Nothing new to learn

Why spreadsheets fail quietly

Your spreadsheet has the data. The problem is nobody is watching it.

Rent goes overdue and you find out a week later

Your sheet knows rent is late on day 1. But it cannot email you. If you do not open it that day, you do not know.

Maintenance requests age silently

A high-priority repair logged on Monday can sit untouched until the next time you check.

Formulas do not follow up

Conditional formatting turns a cell red. But red cells do not send emails.

What RentGuard watches for

Overdue rent

Due date has passed AND status is not marked paid. RentGuard emails you the unit, tenant, amount, and how many days overdue.

Stale maintenance

Open ticket with no update after your configured threshold. RentGuard emails you the unit, issue, priority, and days open.

Monday "week in review" email

Every Monday morning, get a summary of changes and alerts from the past week.

What you get notified about

Every alert is a plain email. No login required. Act directly from your inbox.
