Stop running rent through a spreadsheet that drifts a little further out of sync every week. PropLedger gives you a real rent ledger — week-by-week, lease-by-lease — so the numbers you give your accountant, your tenant, and yourself are the same numbers.
Why spreadsheets fail
Most Australian landlords start with a spreadsheet. It works fine for two or three weeks. Then a tenant pays late, the next week they overpay to catch up, you forget to roll the balance forward, and three months later your records say they're ahead while your bank account says they're behind.
A real rent ledger tracks state, not just dollars. Each weekly charge has a status — open, paid, partially paid, written off, or credited — and balances roll forward automatically. PropLedger was built around this from day one, because it's the only way to get accurate arrears numbers when life happens.
Every rent state, tracked
PropLedger treats rent as a structured ledger entry against a specific lease, not a free-form expense category. Every week of every lease has a charge with a clear state.
Rent charged
Weekly rent due for each open lease — auto-rolled forward so you never miss a charge.
Paid in full
Reconciled against statement lines, bank receipts, or manual entries.
Partially paid
Remaining balance carries forward automatically without breaking the schedule.
Written off
Decisions captured with a note so you have an audit trail at EOFY.
Carried forward
Overpayments and credits applied against future weeks — no spreadsheet gymnastics.
Partial payments & credits
Real tenancies are messy. Tenants pay short, pay double next week, hand-deliver cash mid-period, or fall behind for a month and then catch up. PropLedger handles every one of these scenarios without forcing you to backdate entries or duplicate lines.
