Avail Pricing & Features, Explained (2026)

TL;DR: As of August 2026, Avail (by Realtor.com) has two tiers: Unlimited (free — listings, screening, leases, online rent collection, maintenance, and a tenant portal) and Unlimited Plus ($9/unit per month — adds faster deposits, waived tenant ACH fees, custom applications, clonable leases, branded property websites, and priority support). Both tiers add payment-processing fees. This guide explains what each tier actually includes in plain English, and where a whole-home hub like Okoniq ($9/month) draws the lines differently.

Avail's pricing is refreshingly simple — two tiers — but the fees are where the real cost lives, so it pays to read past the headline number. Below is a plain-English breakdown of the plans and the features that matter, plus honest notes on how they compare to Okoniq Property Hub. All Avail figures come from its public pricing page as of August 2026 — always confirm the latest on avail.com.

Avail Unlimited — free

The free tier is genuinely full-featured for landlords, which is a big part of Avail's appeal:

• Listing syndication to a large network of rental sites
• Online rental applications
• Tenant screening (TransUnion-powered credit and background reports)
• State-specific, lawyer-reviewed leases with electronic signing
• Online rent collection
• Maintenance tracking
• A tenant portal and in-app messaging

Who it's for: Landlords who want the core list-screen-sign-collect workflow at no monthly cost and are comfortable with per-transaction fees passing to tenants (around $2.50 per bank transfer on this tier).

Avail Unlimited Plus — $9/unit per month

Unlimited Plus keeps everything in the free plan and adds convenience and branding:

• Everything in Unlimited
• Faster ("next-day") rent deposits
• Waived tenant ACH transfer fees (so tenants don't pay the per-transfer bank fee)
• Custom application questions
• Customizable and clonable lease templates
• Branded property websites
• Priority customer support

Who it's for: Landlords who want faster payouts, want to remove the tenant-side bank fee, or want more control over applications and lease templates. Note the price is per unit, so the monthly cost scales with your door count.

The fees to know about

The subscription price isn't the whole story on any online rent-collection platform:

• Bank (ACH) transfers: free-tier tenants pay a per-transfer fee (around $2.50); Unlimited Plus waives it.
• Card payments: a processing fee (around 3.5%) applies on both tiers when a tenant pays by credit or debit card.
• Screening: application fees for credit and background checks vary by state and are typically paid by the applicant.

Factor these in when you compare "free" against a flat subscription — the true cost depends on how your tenants pay.

How Okoniq draws the lines differently

Okoniq organizes its tiers around what you do with the property, not per-unit leasing volume. As of August 2026:

• Home — $9/month ($90/year): up to 3 properties, maintenance log, one-tap vendor dispatch, automatic utility-bill tracking, seasonal checklists, Emergency Binder, and free year-end tax exports (Schedule E).
• Home Plus — $15/month ($150/year): up to 20 properties, plus home-value comparables, investor analysis, sell-ready tax-basis tracking, a renovation cost estimator, and a refinance analyzer.
• Landlord / Landlord Pro — $19–$29/month: tenants, per-tenant rent tracking, security deposits, and a tenant portal.

Three differences stand out:

1. Pricing model. Avail's paid plan is per unit; Okoniq's is a flat monthly plan. Per-unit scales with your portfolio; flat doesn't.
2. Payments. Avail processes rent (and charges the associated fees). Okoniq only marks rent paid and tracks it per tenant — owners move money through their own Zelle, Venmo, or ACH, so there are no per-transaction processing fees, but also no in-app payment rail.
3. Scope. Avail is a rental tool; Okoniq is a home + rental + HOA hub with free tax exports at every tier and homeowner tools Avail doesn't include.

FAQ

How much is Avail per month?

As of August 2026, Avail Unlimited is free ($0/unit) and Unlimited Plus is $9/unit per month.

Confirm current pricing on Avail's site, as plans can change.

Does Avail charge more as I add units?

On the paid Unlimited Plus plan, yes — pricing is per unit, so more doors means a higher monthly cost. The free Unlimited plan is $0/unit but shifts per-transaction fees to tenants. Compare that against a flat-plan tool depending on your portfolio size.

Is Avail Unlimited Plus worth it over the free plan?

It depends on whether faster deposits, waived tenant ACH fees, custom applications, clonable leases, and branded websites matter to you. If you only need the core list-screen-collect workflow, the free Unlimited plan may be enough. If you want the conveniences and branding, Plus adds them per unit.

How does Avail pricing compare to Okoniq?

Avail Unlimited is free with per-transaction fees, and Unlimited Plus is $9/unit per month; Okoniq starts at $9/month flat with a 30-day trial and no permanent free tier. Avail processes rent; Okoniq marks it paid and includes free tax exports. The better value depends on whether you need payment processing and how many units you manage.
