Where do landlords and short-term rental hosts hang out online?
A landlord with six units tracks rent, repairs, and lease dates in a spreadsheet he built in 2017. It mostly works until a tenant asks for a receipt. Show him the exact spreadsheet you replaced, and he will believe you faster than any feature grid.
That scene is a composite, not a real person. The rooms below are real, picked by hand, and nobody paid to be on this list.
The rooms where landlords and short-term rental hosts already talk
- r/Landlord: Operators comparing tools and laws.
- r/RealEstate: Broader market talk.
- r/AirBnB: If you serve hosts.
- BiggerPockets Forums: Investors and landlords; show the spreadsheet you replaced.
- Airbnb Community Center: Hosts helping hosts; soft mentions only.
Rules change. Read each sidebar before you post, and check whether self-promotion is allowed at all.
How to post there without getting removed
A spreadsheet you replaced is more convincing than a feature matrix.
- Write a post that is useful even if nobody clicks your link.
- Say plainly that you are the maker. People forgive a builder; they do not forgive a disguise.
- Stay for an hour and answer every reply. The comments are where the first users come from.
- Post in one room, learn, then adapt the words for the next. The same text pasted into three rooms reads as spam in all three.

Run the finder on your own app →
The finder matches your one-line description against every niche map, then gives you a checklist, a share link and a fill-in-the-blanks first post written for r/Landlord.
Then find landlords and short-term rental hosts on X: seven saved searches that catch people describing the problem right now, built for the word landlord. Change it to your own.
Builder rooms, for feedback rather than customers
- r/SideProject: Best default builder room for "I made this."
- r/indiehackers: Solo founders; revenue and lessons beat polish.
- r/alphaandbetausers: Ask for specific testers and say what they get.
- r/roastmystartup: Cheap, blunt landing-page critique.
Builders give great critique and rarely pay. Use these for testers, then go back to the rooms above. More in Best subreddits to launch a SaaS.
