Small property managers are stuck with expensive per-unit pricing from incumbents like Buildium/AppFolio and switching costs prevent them from moving to a more affordable flat-rate platform.

These platforms charge per unit, making them expensive for small portfolios (50–250 units). Switching costs (data migration, learning curve, team disruption) outweigh the financial savings for many.
