Four headaches every Massachusetts 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.
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.
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.

Local ordinance
Franklin Rent Ordinance
Franklin has no rent-control ordinance. Massachusetts state law preempts local rent control, so cities and towns cannot cap rent increases. Landlords may raise rent by any amount at the end of a lease term with proper notice, subject to federal fair-housing and anti-retaliation protections.

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!

Local Agents For Your State
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.
