Rental Property Manager

Security Scan

The skill's requirements, instructions, and included references match its stated purpose (small-scale rental property management) and it does not request unexpected credentials or install software.

Purpose & Capability

The name/description align with the runtime instructions and reference files: tenant/lease tracking, maintenance schedules, rent monitoring, and state-law notes. No unrelated binaries, credentials, or install steps are requested.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md stays within property-management scope: it asks the user to provide property details, describes local storage under memory/properties/, and lists optional integrations. It does not instruct the agent to read system files, environment secrets, or send data to external endpoints unless the user explicitly configures integrations. Note: the claim of 'local only' depends on the agent runtime and whether the user enables integrations.

Install Mechanism

Instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files — nothing will be written or executed by an installer. This is the lowest-risk install profile.

Credentials

The skill declares no required environment variables or credentials. Optional integrations (Google Sheets/Calendar, Email, Stripe/PayPal) would require user-provided credentials only if enabled; those are appropriate for the listed integrations but are not required to install or use the skill locally.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false (default). The skill does not request permanent system-wide privileges or to modify other skills. The agent can invoke the skill autonomously (platform default), which is expected for skills of this type.

Assessment

This skill appears coherent and does not request secrets or install code by itself. Before installing, confirm where your OpenClaw 'workspace' and memory/properties/ directory are stored (so you know where tenant PII will live). Only enable integrations (Google, Email, Stripe/PayPal) if you trust the agent and are prepared to provide credentials; those integrations can transmit data to third parties. Limit the amount of sensitive personal data you paste into the skill, review any generated legal notices for accuracy, and back up or secure the workspace if you will store tax or tenant financial records. If you want higher assurance, test the skill with dummy data first.

Autonomous property management assistant for small landlords and self-managing property owners.

What It Does

Tenant & Lease Management

• Track all tenants, lease terms, rent amounts, move-in/move-out dates
• Alert 90/60/30 days before lease expiration with renewal or turnover action plan
• Generate lease renewal letters with market-rate adjustments
• Screen tenant applications: income verification checklist, reference check templates, red flag alerts

Rent Collection & Financials

• Monitor rent payments — flag late payers on day 2, generate 3-day notice on day 5
• Track security deposits, last month's rent, and escrow requirements by state
• Monthly P&L per property: rent collected, mortgage, taxes, insurance, maintenance, net cash flow
• Annual summary for tax prep (Schedule E ready)

Maintenance & Repairs

• Log maintenance requests with priority (emergency/urgent/routine)
• Track vendor contacts, costs, and response times
• Seasonal maintenance reminders (HVAC filter, gutter cleaning, furnace inspection, smoke detector batteries)
• Estimate repair vs replace decisions with ROI analysis

Vacancy & Turnover

• Turnover checklist: cleaning, paint, repairs, photos, listing
• Draft property listings for Zillow/Apartments.com/Craigslist with photo descriptions
• Market rent analysis using comparable listings
• Track days-on-market and suggest pricing adjustments at 14/21/30 day marks

Compliance & Legal

• State-specific landlord-tenant law reminders (notice periods, eviction process, habitability standards)
• Fair housing compliance checklist for listings and screening
• Annual property inspection scheduling
• Insurance renewal tracking

Setup

Tell the agent about your properties:

I have [X] rental units. Here are the details:
- [Address], [beds/baths], [current rent], [tenant name], [lease end date]

The agent will build your property portfolio and start tracking everything.

Data Storage

All property data is stored locally in your OpenClaw workspace under memory/properties/. Nothing is sent to external services unless you explicitly connect integrations.

Integrations (Optional)

• Google Sheets: Sync rent rolls and financials
• Google Calendar: Lease expirations, inspections, maintenance schedules
• Email: Tenant communications, vendor coordination
• Stripe/PayPal: Payment tracking (read-only monitoring)

Who This Is For

• Small landlords (1-50 units)
• Self-managing property owners
• Side-hustle rental investors
• Anyone who manages rentals without a full property management company

Who This Is NOT For

• Large property management companies (100+ units) — use AppFolio/Buildium
• Commercial real estate — this is residential focused
• Short-term rentals / Airbnb — see ai-airbnb-revenue-maximizer skill
