ValleyUnit vs DoorLoop
Built for the 1-10 unit landlord, not the mid-market property manager
DoorLoop is priced for property management companies
DoorLoop is a strong mid-market platform, but its pricing and feature surface reflect that. Plans start around $69/month for small portfolios and scale upward to $149+/month for the feature set most landlords actually need.
If you own 1-10 units yourself, you are paying for accounting modules, vendor management, and CRM workflows you will never use.

Not too simple. Not too enterprise.
ValleyUnit is built for landlords with up to 10 units. DoorLoop is built for property management companies with dozens to thousands of doors. Both are good at what they do - but only one is priced and designed for you.
You should not be paying enterprise prices for rent collection that should just work.
