## How we ranked this list

Build-to-rent needs a resident experience closer to hospitality than a high-street letting shop, and operations that survive volume: applications, move-ins, amenity-level comms, repairs SLAs and owner reporting.

Yardi and MRI are the global enterprise defaults. Fixflo often sits beside them for repairs. Yorlet is the UK lettings platform alternative with a native resident app, loyalty, payments and MCP.

### Criteria

- Native resident app, not only a web portal
- Volume leasing and move-in without a spreadsheet tracker
- Maintenance SLAs that operations can actually run
- Owner and asset reporting that finance will accept

### Can Yorlet replace Yardi for BTR?

For UK residential operations — leasing, rent, residents, maintenance — many operators can. If you need Voyager-style fund accounting across countries, Yardi or MRI may still sit in the group finance layer while Yorlet runs the asset.
