What it is
Utility Ranger is web-based utility billing and RUBS software for multifamily operators. It calculates resident utility shares with formula-based allocations, without requiring individual meters. Billing can use square footage, occupancy, or both. Detailed invoices show the master bill, management share, and resident share, then are sent by email and text through ResidentBill.com. Utility, lease, and administrative charges can be combined into one statement, with unlimited invoice charges. Tier 1 charge-file integrations include AppFolio, Buildium, Yardi Breeze, Resman, Rent Manager, and PropertyWare; DoorLoop Pro and TurboTenant support bulk entry. After setup, a monthly billing cycle takes approximately 30 minutes per portfolio. Concierge setup and monthly 30-minute check-ins are provided during the first three to four months. Plans are Cadet at $2 per unit/month and Commander at $3 per unit/month, each with a 60-day free trial. The product targets roughly 20–3,000-unit, master-metered, RUBS-permitted markets.
