Understanding your landlord dashboard

A complete walkthrough of the RentMouse dashboard—what each section means, how to customize your view, and getting insights at a glance.

Your Command Center

The dashboard is the first thing you see when you log into RentMouse. It's designed to give you a quick snapshot of your entire rental portfolio—what's going well, what needs attention, and what's coming up.

The Overview Cards

At the top of your dashboard, you'll see several summary cards:

Total Properties / Units

A quick count of how many properties and units you're managing. Click to jump to your properties list.

Occupancy Rate

What percentage of your units have tenants? 100% is the dream, but anything above 90% is generally healthy.

Rent Collected This Month

How much rent has come in versus how much is expected. Green means you're on track.

Outstanding Balance

Total unpaid rent across all tenants. Click to see who owes what.

Recent Activity Feed

A chronological list of recent events:

  • Payments received
