From an empty property to clear records
Give tenants the facts in one listing
- The problem
- Photos and prices scattered across chats leave prospective tenants asking the same questions.
- On Cabans
- A free Cabans rental listing holds the property description, photos and asking rent, with enquiries sent to your inbox.
- The result
- Tenants can review the same information before you arrange a viewing. You remain responsible for screening and the tenancy.
Make a payment record you can read later
- The problem
- A transfer description alone may not identify the property or period paid for.
- On Cabans
- The receipt tool brings the parties, amount, dates and payment method into a printable document.
- The result
- You can check the receipt against the actual payment and give both parties a copy. Generating a receipt does not confirm that money was received.
Prepare a notice for legal review
- The problem
- Reusing an old notice can carry the wrong tenancy details or an unsuitable date.
- On Cabans
- The quit notice tool keeps the facts editable, explains usual notice lengths and labels your chosen possession date as a request.
- The result
- You have a draft to take to a lawyer, who can check the applicable law, service and next steps before it is used.
Put the tenancy terms in writing
- The problem
- Verbal discussions can leave rent, repair duties and deposits unclear.
- On Cabans
- The fill-in agreement includes the existing residential clauses and schedules, with space for the parties, premises, term and charges.
- The result
- Both sides can review the same draft with a lawyer before signing. Keep signed copies and a condition record yourself.
Run a yearly tenancy on Cabans
Set up a tenancy, invite the tenant by email and choose yearly, quarterly or monthly rent. The tenant signs up or signs in. Rent collection is free for landlords; the tenant pays a processing fee on top of rent, shown before they pay. You are paid into your payout bank account once the payment clears.

Collect rent online with a receipt
- The problem
- Following up payments and writing receipts takes time.
- On Cabans
- The invited tenant pays online and Cabans sends automatic receipts and email reminders before rent is due.
- The result
- You can follow payment against the tenancy without preparing each receipt by hand.
Keep a rent ledger
- The problem
- Cash and bank transfer payments can disappear from a separate notebook.
- On Cabans
- The tenancy rent ledger includes online payments and lets the landlord record cash or transfer payments.
- The result
- You can review the record together and reconcile it with your bank and cash records.
Follow maintenance requests
- The problem
- Repair messages across separate conversations are easy to miss.
- On Cabans
- Tenants can send maintenance requests through their tenancy.
- The result
- The landlord has a record to follow up; the landlord or their contractor still arranges and carries out the repair.
Keep other charges and the agreement with the tenancy
- The problem
- Service charge, caution deposit, agency or legal fees and the signed agreement can become detached from the rent record.
- On Cabans
- Bill other charges through the tenancy and keep the tenancy agreement on file in Cabans.
- The result
- Review charges and the agreement alongside the same tenancy record, with each responsibility agreed clearly.
Use the documents carefully
Laws differ by state; check your state's tenancy law and speak to a lawyer before you serve a notice or sign an agreement. A draft is a starting point. It does not authorise eviction, replace proper service or establish that a payment cleared.

Frequently asked questions
Are these landlord tools free?
Yes. The receipt, quit notice and agreement tools are free to use in your browser. Standard property listings on Cabans are free too. A document draft still needs your checks and, for legal documents, a lawyer’s review.
Do I need to create an account to prepare a document?
No. Fill in the document tools without signing in. The information you type stays in your browser and is not sent to Cabans. Print or copy your finished draft before you leave or reload the page.
Is a quit notice or tenancy agreement automatically legally valid?
No. Laws differ by state, and the agreement and facts of the tenancy matter. Speak to a lawyer before serving a notice or signing an agreement. These tools do not calculate a legally valid notice expiry date.
Can Cabans find a tenant for me?
Cabans is a property marketplace where you publish your listing and receive enquiries. You or your agent answer questions, arrange viewings, check applicants and agree the tenancy. A listing does not guarantee a tenant or a particular letting time.
How does rent collection on Cabans work?
Set up a tenancy and invite the tenant by email. The tenant signs up or signs in and pays online. Rent collection is free for landlords; the tenant pays a processing fee on top of rent, shown before payment. The landlord is paid into their payout bank account once the payment clears.
