Fair to everyone in the life of a home.
Most real-estate software is built for one side, and everyone else just logs in. Merit is built for the record itself, so builder, landlord, or tenant, you write to the same honest history and get the same proof out of it.
By who you are
One record. Real value for everyone on it.
For landlords
Fewer disputes. Better tenants. Less worry.
Run your tenancies on a record that protects you if anything is ever questioned · and signals to good renters that you're the kind of landlord worth renting from.
- A defensible history of every interaction
- Requests, preventive upkeep, and messages in one place
- A verified Property Score you can share to fill units faster
For tenants
A home you can prove you took care of.
Keep your own copy of every message, repair, and on-time payment, and turn a good rental history into a reputation that follows you to the next place.
- Your own portal and your own copy of the record
- A shareable Merit Passport that follows you to the next place
For builders
Sell the home with its history.
Log every material and contractor as you build. At closing, the buyer gets a verified record and a Property Score: proof of quality, not promises.
- Every material and contractor, logged as work happens
- A verified Property Score earned from the real record
- The record transfers with the keys at closing
By portfolio
From a single unit to a small portfolio.
Merit scales with you: start with one tenancy, grow to many, and bring a team along when you're ready.
Independent owners
Renting out a unit or two? Get organized, protected, and professional from day one · without enterprise software or enterprise prices.
Growing landlords
Managing a handful of tenancies? Keep every one on the same fair record, with messaging, maintenance, and payments in one place.
Property managers
Managing on behalf of owners? Give every party a transparent, shared record, and a defensible trail for the decisions you make.
By rental type
Built for the rentals real people live in.
Single-family homes
One household, one clear record · from move-in photos to the final deposit return.
Small multifamily
Each unit gets its own tenancy and timeline, all organized under one roof.
Rooms & roommates
Keep shared-living arrangements clear, with a record everyone in the home can see.
Student rentals
Help first-time renters with thin credit build a verified history landlords trust.
Condos & HOAs
A neutral record for rentals inside associations, where transparency matters most.
Anyone who values proof
If a rental matters enough to remember, it matters enough to put on the record.
Why this exists
Every kind of rental has the same weak point: when something is disputed, there's no record both people trust. Merit was built to be that record, whoever you are in the tenancy.
