Four headaches every California 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
Santa Clara Rent Ordinance
Santa Clara has no local rent-control ordinance, so California's statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) applies. Annual rent increases are capped at 5% plus the regional CPI, up to a 10% maximum, and just-cause eviction protections apply after 12 months of tenancy. Single-family homes and condos owned by individuals, and buildings less than 15 years old, are generally exempt.
Fun fact
Fun Facts about Santa Clara
Did you know Santa Clara has no rent-control ordinance of its own? California's statewide AB 1482 cap (5% + regional CPI, up to 10%) is what limits rent increases here.

Growing up in my family's real estate brokerage in Southern California, I've been immersed in the industry since childhood. With a deep-rooted understanding of real estate gained through years of hands-on experience, I now bring my expertise to leasing in both Southern California and San Francisco. As a full-time software engineer with a passion for real estate, I offer a unique advantage: flexible property showings during non-traditional hours. This approach makes property viewing accessible for busy professionals and those with challenging schedules. My long-term vision is to leverage my technical skills and family's real estate legacy to eventually launch my own innovative venture in the industry. I believe the most effective way to do this is to first understand what it takes to provide my clients with an exceptional leasing experience. A fun fact about me is that I love to surf--Ocean Beach, Pacifica, and Santa Cruz are some of my favorite spots in California!

After spending thirteen years growing up in the Central Valley, I moved back to the Bay Area with a vision of something great for myself. But like most people, I had trouble figuring out what that was. I have always wanted to help people, but not just in any simple way - I wanted to make an impact. After considering many options like legal and healthcare careers, the light bulb came on. Real Estate. I've studied day and night, I've made it my life, and I've been having more fun than ever! I am proud to be an agent with a trusted company like Century 21, allowing me to offer you a wide variety of tools that allow exclusive access to early listings, accurate market statistics, and unparalleled options that allow you to get the best service, and the best me. I love the Bay Area, and service all the hottest neighborhoods in Sunnyvale, Campbell, San Jose, and everywhere that's anywhere in Santa Clara County. There are few financial decisions more important than the buying or selling of a home, and there are few things that exhilarate me more than getting the chance to help you with yours. The Bay is more cutthroat than ever these days, and having a passionate agent on your team, with a reliable team of his own, makes all the difference!

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.
