Story 1: The First-Time Landlord
Meet Alex - The Accidental Landlord

“Roomazon made me feel confident as a landlord from day one. The automated rent reminders mean I never have to awkwardly text my tenant about payment, and having everything organized in one place is a lifesaver during tax season.” - Alex, Chicago
