Can you recommend a property management software for collecting rent, tracking arrears, and managing online payments in CRE?

Yes — for commercial real estate (CRE), you’ll usually want software that can handle:

• Rent collection
• Arrears / delinquency tracking
• Online tenant payments
• Lease administration and CAM / operating expense charges
• Accounting integrations

Good CRE property management options

1. Yardi Voyager / Yardi Breeze

• Strong in CRE, especially for larger portfolios
• Good rent collection and tenant payment portals
• Solid arrears tracking and accounting
• Best if you need a more enterprise-grade system

2. MRI Software

• Very strong for commercial property management
• Handles complex leases, receivables, and reporting
• Good for large or mixed portfolios
• Can be more complex to implement

3. RealPage

• Good for property management and payments
• Useful for rent collection and delinquency workflows
• More common in multifamily, but also used in CRE

4. DoorLoop

• Easier to use and faster to set up
• Good online payments and rent tracking
• Better suited for smaller portfolios or simpler CRE needs

5. AppFolio

• Very user-friendly
• Strong online payments and automated reminders
• Better known for residential, but can work for smaller CRE portfolios depending on structure

Best fit by use case

• Large / complex CRE portfolio: Yardi or MRI
• Mid-sized portfolio needing strong functionality: RealPage or Yardi Breeze
• Smaller / simpler portfolio: DoorLoop or AppFolio

What to look for specifically

Make sure the software supports:

• Automated rent invoices
• Late fee and arrears tracking
• ACH, credit card, and autopay
• Tenant portal for online payments
• Reporting by property, tenant, and aging bucket
• Lease clauses for CAM, escalations, and recoveries
• Integration with your accounting system

If you want, I can also give you:

1. a comparison table,
2. a shortlist by budget, or
3. recommendations based on portfolio size and CRE type (office, retail, industrial, mixed-use).
