A miserable insurance purchase gave Darren Nix an idea. Steadily has since built a business around the places rental property owners already work, from listing platforms to property management software.
Baselane is a New York fintech that gives individual real estate investors and landlords a single place to bank, collect rent, and keep their books. Instead of stitching together a legacy bank account, spreadsheets, an accountant, and consumer payment apps, users open property-specific accounts, collect rent by ACH or card, and let AI categorize transactions into tax-ready reports. The company says its 50,000-plus customers move more than $2 billion in annual transactions and save an average of roughly 150 hours and $5,000 a year.
