Built for every type of rental property in Cranston

All of the control, none of the chaos.

More time back. Less admin. We handle the heavy lifting so you don’t have to.

Four headaches every Rhode Island operator knows. Here’s how Hemlane closes them.

01

Other softwares charge additional transaction fees.

Most platforms charge per ACH payment that add up to tens of thousands a year on a 50-door portfolio. Those fees are yours.

How Hemlane fixes it

100% of late fees back to you, $0 ACH fee.

Hemlane returns 100% of late fees and other tenant-paid fees to the property manager. ACH rent collection is $0 fee. The number on the lease is the number that lands in your account.

2 AM repair calls force you to hire a team you do not want.

Tenants don’t call about repairs during business hours. The 2 AM water heater call is real and so is the cost of dealing with it alone. Our repair coordination team picks up, troubleshoots, and dispatches so you don’t have to.

03

You are running five tools that do not talk to each other.

Five tools. Five logins. Five places where data goes missing. Most operators run their portfolio across platforms that don’t talk to each other. Hemlane replaces all of it with one login, one team in one platform.

How Hemlane fixes it

One product, one login, one team.

Leasing, screening, listings, rent collection, maintenance coordination, delinquency tracking, and eviction support all live inside one Hemlane account, with one login, one team, and one set of state-specific workflows.

Here at Marble Properties we strive to wow our customers. We take pride in everything we do and make sure every issue is resolved. We have 24/7 coverage for tenants and treat every home as if it was our own. I remember being a renter and thinking to myself, what if the landlord or property manager was down to earth. Approachable! I was brought up by my family and peers to fear the landlord and to avoid them. I decided at the point in time, if I ever because a landlord, I want to make sure everyone is able to talk to me as one of them. fast forward to now. I became a landlord and really interact with my tenants. try and make them feel at ease. The best feeling is when they say I'm the "coolest" person they've talked to. They know when its down to business, but also know that they can talk to me about issues. They are customers too. So when it comes to the team the works under me, I expect professional service from everyone because that represents the brand! I always say to my clients and tenants, if someone doesn't come on time or do it right, I will come out and do it myself. Efficiency, accuracy, being on time, and being courteous. That's what matters to Mable Properties and we pass that to our customers as well!

Specialties Buyer's agent Listing agent Consulting Landlord Broker (32 years experience) Bruce and Diana helped my fiance and I purchase our first home! The entire home buying process was made very simple and easy with the help of Bruce and Diana. We felt at ease from the beginning through the closing date. We would recommend Bruce and Diana if you would like great communication, great teamwork and an easy/comforting home buying experience. Bruce Lane came highly recommended to us and now we understand why. From the moment we met Mr. Lane we were impressed with the in-depth knowledge he possesses regarding real estate, his willingness to spend countless amount of time with us explaining today's market and how to navigate it, he is an excellent listener and organizer, and he sincerely connects with clients in a way that shows that he truly understands and respects their housing needs/wants. Mr. Lane is not "pushy" in any way and his positive and friendly interpersonal skills helps to make potential clients feel at ease and confident that he has their best interests at heart. Not only are these times stressful due to the pandemic, today's housing market is as well and Mr. Lane alleviated so much of that stress for us. He made the selling of our property an easy and smooth transaction. He arranged the movers for us, provided the use of bins to store our personal household items, had a cleaning crew clean our house after we moved and before the closing and final walk through took place, and he even assisted us on the day of our move! He truly cares about his clients and he understands and acknowledges that buying/selling property can be an emotional time for them. Our property sold reasonably fast and we did not have another place to live secured. We are at a crossroad and really want to take time to find our next home. Again, during this time of global upheaval, Mr. Lane came to our assistance. Mr. Lane is still our realtor as we search for our new home but he has also become our landlord. We are renting an apartment from him until we find our next home. Mr. Lane offers so many services and options to clients that we could not have asked for a better connection with a realtor than the one that we have experienced with him. We have moved a number of times over the last 39 years and have worked with many real estate agents however, Mr. Lane is by far an exemplary realtor; he truly stands out above the rest! We recommend Bruce Lane without reservation. Having Mr. Lane as your realtor will be one of the best decisions you can make in your quest to navigate your housing needs.

Local Agents For Your State

Rhode Island-specific questions, answered.

Common operator questions about running rentals on Hemlane. Each answer ties back to the state-specific workflow Hemlane runs.

You do not need a license to manage your own rental properties through Hemlane. If you manage rentals on behalf of others for compensation, your state may require a real estate broker’s license. Hemlane’s local agents are licensed professionals, so owners using the Agents service are always working with a licensed local expert.

Most states strongly recommend or require written lease agreements for all rental terms. Hemlane provides state-specific lease templates that include required disclosures and legally recognized terms which are ready to send with eSign in minutes.

Hemlane automates rent collection from end to end. Tenants pay online, and funds are deposited directly to the owner and not held in a third-party account. 100% of the rent goes directly to you. Automated reminders and late fee notices reduce manual follow-up so you get paid on time without chasing tenants.

Hemlane lets you configure automated late fees that align with your state’s legal limits. The platform sends automated reminders before rent is due and late notices after. Once the process is set-up, it runs without you having to make a single call.
