Proprietio vs Hemlane
An honest comparison — features, pricing, where each platform genuinely wins. Last verified 2026-07-06.
You own units in markets where you don't live and want optional boots on the ground — a leasing agent to run showings or a 24/7 maintenance dispatch service — without hiring a full property manager, and you're willing to pay per unit plus human-service add-ons for that coverage.
You want flat-tier pricing instead of per-unit-plus-add-ons, real property accounting (double-entry GL, 1099s, bidirectional QuickBooks), AI features (lease drafting, bill scan, maintenance triage), HOA / condo / commercial workflows, bilingual EN/ES, or you self-manage and don't need Hemlane's outsourced human services.

Where Hemlane wins
- Optional human-assisted leasing. Hemlane's leasing-agent network lets a local agent run showings, screen applicants to your criteria, and hand you a signed lease — genuinely valuable when you own units in a market where you can't show them yourself.
- 24/7 maintenance dispatch. On the Complete tier, after-hours calls route to vetted vendors so a remote owner isn't the one answering the 2am pipe-burst call. That's a real service business inside the software.
- Hybrid coverage without hiring a full PM. For 5–50 units owned across markets, Hemlane's per-unit-plus-services model gives predictable boots-on-the-ground help at a fraction of a full property manager.
- State-specific, attorney-reviewed lease templates. State-aware defaults with eSign included — comparable compliance depth to the DIY-toolkit category.
Where Proprietio wins
- AI features Hemlane doesn't have. Lease drafting ($3), maintenance triage ($1/ticket), and bill-scan-from-photo ($0.50) are in-product — repo sources confirm AI is 'not in product' for Hemlane.
- Real property accounting. Built-in double-entry GL, 1099 forms, and bidirectional QuickBooks sync (Pro+). Hemlane offers basic income/expense tracking and simple owner reports — operators routinely run QuickBooks on the side.
- Verticals Hemlane doesn't cover. Dedicated HOA/condo and commercial-RE product lines plus bilingual EN/ES (§1632). Hemlane is a residential product with no CAM reconciliation, percentage rent, or escalation logic.
- Self-serve start. A 15-day free trial with no card to start and no sales call. Hemlane is paid-only with no free tier.
Frequently asked
Does Proprietio offer human leasing and maintenance services like Hemlane?▾
No — and we're honest about that. Hemlane's leasing-agent network and 24/7 maintenance coordination are its real differentiator for remote owners. Proprietio is software: listings, applicant pipeline, AI maintenance triage, and vendor coordination, but you (or your own vendors) handle showings and dispatch. If outsourced boots-on-the-ground is the whole reason you're shopping, Hemlane's Complete tier is the right tool.
Can I migrate from Hemlane to Proprietio?▾
Yes — export your units, tenants, leases, payments, and documents from Hemlane as CSV. You drop your exports in a private Magic Link and our team moves your portfolio for you: properties, units, tenants, leases, balances, ledger history and documents. Free on every annual plan, and on every plan from Growth up. Up to 250 units and 25 buildings, you are live in 7 days, counted from the day we receive your complete exports. If it takes us more than 14 days, your first month is free. Larger portfolio? We migrate it too: free for the first 250 units and 25 buildings, a fixed quote for the rest, and a go-live date agreed before we start.
