How LeaseHub and Buildium Fit Together
Direct Buildium sync, live today
Buildium is a genuinely good property management platform, and we're not asking you to leave it. It runs your books, your maintenance, and your resident ledger. What it was never built to run is the messy part that happens before a tenant exists: chasing leads across five listing sites, scheduling tours, keeping agents accountable, and getting a signed lease and a deposit in the door. That's the gap LeaseHub fills.
LeaseHub handles
- Listing syndication across Zillow, Apartments.com, Zumper and more
- Showing scheduling for agents, plus renter self-scheduling
- Applications, screening, and deal pipeline tracking
- Agent assignment, activity tracking, and commission invoicing
- Lease signing, upfront payments, and renewal offers
Buildium handles
- General ledger, owner statements, and financial reporting
- Recurring rent collection and delinquency tracking
- Maintenance requests, work orders, and vendor management
- HOA and community association management
- Long-term resident records and property accounting
Where the handoff happens
LeaseHub pulls your units and vacancies from Buildium so agents always work from live availability, then pushes the executed lease and tenant record back once the deal closes. Buildium stays your system of record for the property; LeaseHub is the system of record for the deal.

Schedule a DemoFrequently Asked Questions
Straight answers about running LeaseHub alongside Buildium.
Do I have to leave Buildium to use LeaseHub?
No, and we'd rather you didn't. LeaseHub syncs directly with Buildium. Buildium keeps running your accounting, maintenance, and resident ledger; LeaseHub takes over the leasing pipeline in front of it. Most of our customers run both.
What does LeaseHub actually add on top of Buildium?
The pre-move-in workflow. Buildium's showings and self-tour scheduling are a paid Tenant Turner add-on starting around $41/mo, and its agent-management tooling is rated low because it's built for owners and PMs. LeaseHub adds native showing scheduling, a versatile application portal, deal pipeline tracking, and a central agent dashboard with activity tracking and invoicing.
How much does Buildium cost, and how does LeaseHub price alongside it?
Buildium uses a tiered subscription by unit count, starting around $62/mo for its Essential tier. LeaseHub starts with a free trial and is then custom-quoted based on your team's size and workflow. Book a call to get an exact number for your operation.
Does LeaseHub replace Buildium's accounting features?
No, and it isn't trying to. LeaseHub doesn't handle accounting or GL. That stays in Buildium, which is genuinely strong at it. We handle the upfront and move-in payments that happen during the deal, then hand the resident off to Buildium for ongoing rent and reporting.
