One setup fee. One flat monthly rate.
No per-unit fees. No per-user fees. No surprise add-ons. The founding rate is locked at $599/month for the life of your account if you sign as one of the first ten firms.
Setup, one-time
Custom platform build, branding, data migration, staff training, go-live.
Monthly
Unlimited units and users. Hosting, support, fixes, and ongoing feature work included.
Your Stripe, your bank accounts. Folio never holds a cent.
How money moves
We connect your own Stripe account and your own bank accounts to the platform. Rent, security deposits, and trust funds flow through accounts your firm owns and controls end to end — they never route through HurTech or Folio. We operate the software, not the money.
If you ever left, your funds would be exactly where they are today: in your accounts.
Why $599 covers it
Because integrations run on your own accounts, usage-based costs — card and ACH processing, SMS, screening reports — are billed to you by those providers directly, at cost, with zero markup from Folio.
The $599 pays for what we actually provide: the platform, hosting, support, and ongoing build work. And the founding rate is locked, so it doesn’t climb as you grow.
Compared at your portfolio size.
Industry pricing is a moving target. These are typical monthly all-in costs based on published rate cards plus the add-ons most firms end up needing.

What the flat fee includes.
Everything below is bundled into the $599/month rate. No add-on charges, no per-document fees, no usage caps.
Custom platform build
We build the product around your specific firm's workflows, not a template you adapt to.
Owner, tenant, agent, and admin portals
All four portals on your domain, branded to your firm.
Rent roll & trust accounting
GAAP-compliant, audit-ready, with one-click 1099 generation.
ACH and card rent collection
Through your firm's own Stripe account, with auto-receipts. Funds settle straight to your bank — Folio never holds them.
AI maintenance triage
Tenant submissions auto-classified, emergencies flagged, vendors dispatched.
Lead capture, scoring, and routing
Zillow, your website, referrals — all scored and routed to the right agent.
Lease e-signature
Via DocuSign integration, included in the flat fee.
Owner statements & NOI reports
Auto-generated and emailed monthly. Owners log in for live cash flow.
Tenant screening
Via CoreLogic — credit, criminal, eviction, income verification. The integration is included; report costs are billed at cost, never marked up.
Data migration
From AppFolio, Buildium, Yardi, or spreadsheets. Five to seven business days.
Live staff training
A 90-minute training session plus recorded walkthroughs for new hires.
Hosting and infrastructure
We host on enterprise-grade infrastructure. You never see a server.
Bug fixes and security patches
Included in the monthly fee, forever.
Ongoing feature work
New features built as your firm grows. No version upgrades to pay for.
Priority Slack support
Dedicated channel with your build team. Replies within hours, not days.
Built on demand, priced upfront, never bundled into your monthly fee.
Some firms want capabilities that go beyond the platform we ship to every customer. We build them on a per-project basis, scoped and quoted before any work starts. Your monthly fee stays $599.
Most requested
Native iOS & Android mobile app
A branded native mobile app for your tenants, owners, or agents. Push notifications for rent due, maintenance updates, and lease renewals. Biometric login. Camera-based maintenance ticket creation. Published to the App Store and Google Play under your firm's name.
- Same look and feel as your web platform
- Built on a shared codebase so feature work ports automatically
- App Store and Google Play submission handled end to end
- Ongoing updates included after launch
Build & submission
Quoted at scoping
Typical range: $8k–$18k depending on which portal(s) you ship. 4–6 week build alongside the main platform.
Already responsive on mobile
Most firms launch without it.
The Folio web platform is fully mobile-responsive. Owners, tenants, and agents can do every important workflow from a mobile browser — pay rent, submit a work order with a photo, view lease documents, check the leasing pipeline. Most firms never end up needing the native app.
The native app earns its keep when push notifications and offline access matter to your business — high-end portfolios where tenants expect a polished app, or firms with field-based maintenance teams who lose connectivity on-site.
If you're not sure whether you need it, we'll talk through it on the scoping call. No pressure to add it.
Pricing questions, answered.
Is the $599 / month rate really locked forever?
Yes for founding clients (limited to the first 10 firms). After the founding cohort, the standard rate will reset higher for new customers; founding clients keep $599/month for the life of their account, regardless of feature additions or portfolio growth.
How can everything be included at $599? Stripe, Twilio, and CoreLogic aren't free.
Correct — and we don't pretend they are. Folio runs every integration on your firm's own accounts: your Stripe, your Twilio, your CoreLogic relationship. Usage-based costs (card and ACH processing, SMS, screening reports) are billed to you by those providers directly, at their standard rates, with zero markup from us. The $599 covers what we actually provide: the platform, hosting, support, and ongoing build work.
Who holds our rent, deposits, and trust funds?
You do. We connect your own Stripe account and your own bank accounts to the platform, so rent, deposits, and trust funds move through accounts your firm owns and controls end to end. The money never touches HurTech or Folio — we operate the software, not the funds.
What happens at 1,000 units? Do you start charging per-unit?
No. The flat fee is the entire pricing model. A 1,000-unit firm pays the same $599/month as a 150-unit firm. The only time pricing changes is if you ask us to build something specifically for you that requires significant new engineering — that's a separately-quoted project, with you knowing the cost upfront before any work starts.
What's the catch?
The catch is the 10-firm founding cohort cap. After we hit 10 firms at this rate, the pricing model shifts and the founding rate is gone for new sign-ups. The other thing to know upfront: this is a managed service, so winding down takes two months' notice (or two months' fee to wind down immediately). Your data is exportable the whole time.
Are there any hidden fees? Setup, per-screen, per-document?
We charge exactly two things: the $2,500 one-time setup and $599/month. No per-unit, per-user, per-document, per-screen, or per-seat fees, and we never mark up a transaction. What we don't absorb: usage-based provider costs (Stripe processing, SMS, screening reports), which are billed to you by those providers directly at cost, through accounts you own.
Do we own the platform? What do we own?
HurTech owns and maintains the platform — we act as your dedicated tech department rather than handing over code. You own your data outright: every record, exportable as full SQL and CSV at any time, from day one.
What happens if we want to leave?
You take a full SQL and CSV export of every record — rent roll, tenants, leases, ledgers, work orders, payments — available anytime, not just at exit. Winding down takes two months' notice, or you can pay the equivalent of two months' fee to wind down immediately. No other exit fees, no data lock-in.
Why is your pricing flat when everyone else charges per-unit?
Per-unit pricing penalizes growth and forces you to under-invest in technology to control costs. We think that's a worse business model for both sides. Flat-fee pricing means we're aligned with your growth — we want you to add units, because it lowers your cost-per-unit while keeping ours predictable.
