MicroRealEstate

Use it when

• You are a landlord tracking properties, tenants, leases, and rent payments across scattered spreadsheets and want one self-hosted system of record
• You need to generate leases from templates and send notices and rent receipts to tenants by email from a platform your team can collaborate in

What it solves

Not the fit when

• Assuming payment collection is absent or production-ready; the README shows a tenant 'Pay a rent' surface but does not document supported processors, settlement, or compliance boundaries.
• Large commercial-property accounting, tenant screening, or listing syndication.
• Internet deployment with default or reused `.env` secrets; rotate all tokens, use HTTPS, restrict administrative access, and preserve prior Mongo credentials during upgrades as documented.
• Holding tenant contact, lease, and rent data without an independent backup/restore test and an applicable privacy/data-retention policy.
• property listing and marketing
• tenant background screening
• full accounting or tax ledger integration
• using the system without securing, backing up, and governing tenant and payment data
