Schedule E software: included vs a paid add-on
Updated 2026-09-11 · Not tax advice
Landlords searching for Schedule E software usually want a file their CPA can open next to the 1098 — not a filed return, and not another bank login.
What other apps charge for
As of September 2026, Stessa’s published pricing puts the Schedule E / accountant tax package on the paid Manage plan (about $12/month billed annually). Landlord Studio’s published pricing puts Schedule E reports on Pro, not on the free Go plan. Check their sites; plans change. Stessa Schedule E vs RentLedger.
What is included here
RentLedger downloads a calendar-year Schedule E Part I worksheet from the books you typed. One column per property. Included with the books — not a paid add-on. How the lines map.
What we still do not do
No bank login. No e-file. No computed depreciation. No rent collection yet. If you need Plaid feeds or ACH, those products exist. This is the books and the CPA file.
See a sample Schedule E table. Try it free. No credit card.
