Drop your reservations CSV (any PMS) or bank statements. Get a CPA-grade Schedule E, tax-loophole tracker, and hours reconstruction wizard that could save you $10–30K/year in tax. Works for STRs, LTRs, and mixed portfolios.
Most accounting tools weren't built for short-term rentals — they treat every property like a generic long-term rental and miss what matters for STR tax.
The most annoying part of Schedule E is Line 12 (mortgage interest). Every year, every property, every servicer. RentReel eliminates it in 5 seconds using Claude vision.
Also works for insurance policies, property tax bills, and cost seg study PDFs. Powered by Anthropic Claude — never shared, never logged, never trained on. Full data policy at rentreel.co/privacy.
STR operators keep asking "how's this different from Stessa?" Here's the direct answer.
Not a knock on those tools — they're solid for generic rental accounting. But if you're an STR operator chasing the tax loophole, you need a tool built for the tax loophole.
Not a big-tech founder pretending to understand rentals — an actual host who got tired of losing money to bad tools.
"For 4 years I fought generic bookkeeping tools that treated my rentals as one line, missed the STR tax loophole entirely, and left me with 20-hour tax prep marathons every April. My CPA kept saying 'we need better tracking for REPS' — nothing on the market did it right. So I built RentReel. Every feature exists because I hit that pain personally."
Not "coming soon" — the actual product. All 22 below are live at app.rentreel.co.
