RemoteLock for mid-sized portfolios (5–20 listings)
Operators at 5–20 listings, past the solo-host stage but not yet running a full property management company.
Our verdict for mid-sized portfolios (5–20 listings)
Great fit
Sweet spot for RemoteLock — enough units to justify the subscription and automation pays for itself in time saved.
Why it fits you
- Automated code generation through PMS integration eliminates manual key management across 5–20 units
- Single dashboard provides real-time visibility across all properties
- Hardware flexibility lets you match lock brands to different property types
What might bite you
- Reported hardware reliability issues could mean ongoing replacement costs at scale
- Support responsiveness may be frustrating when locks fail at multiple properties
Best-for-you alternatives at this size
- Aqara Okay fit — consider alternatives
Workable for 10–30 doors if you're willing to bridge Aqara to your PMS via a third-party lock middleware, but you'll be doing integration work Aqara doesn't ship natively.
From $169.99 • No free trial · Affordable, ecosystem-friendly smart locks for hands-on small-portfolio hosts
- August Home Okay fit — consider alternatives
Workable for 6-25 units if door-modification restrictions are a real constraint, but shorter battery life adds up across a larger fleet.
From $149.99 • No free trial · The right smart lock when you can't modify the door exterior
- Igloohome Okay fit — consider alternatives
Works for mid-size operators but bridge costs and limited platform integrations add friction at scale.
