PG Manager: Lightweight Rental Management

A free Android app for small landlords to track rooms, tenants, and rent at a glance

Problem

Small landlords (PG/co-living operators) often track rooms, tenants, and rent in notebooks or spreadsheets, leading to missed collections and lost history. Existing property management software is too heavy and expensive for someone with just a few rooms.

Solution

A lightweight Android app for rental management: record tenant info, rent cycles, and payment status per room, auto-generate collection reminders, and show simple income/expense summaries. Data stays local with optional backup, no cloud dependency.

Users

Individual landlords, co-living operators, and subletters managing 1–10 rental rooms

MVP

Room and tenant profiles; rent cycle and payment records; due/overdue reminders; simple income/expense summary; local data export

Revenue

Free basic tier + one-time purchase or subscription to unlock multiple properties, cloud backup, and report export

Why now

Small landlords are a large but underserved group; mobile-first and local-first storage lower the trust barrier. Indie developers can ship an offline-first app quickly for this niche.
