Rentec Direct MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives AI agents structured, local-first access to your Rentec Direct property-management data via the official Rentec Direct API v3.

It exposes 20 tools so an assistant can read properties, tenants, leases, transactions, work orders, and more — and, with explicit confirmation, create vendors, leads, work orders, expenses, messages, and upload files. It also serves a reference resource and a set of workflow prompts for clients that support them.

30-second start

1. Create an API key in Rentec Direct: Settings → Utilities → API Keys.

2. Add the server to your MCP client:

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "rentec-direct": {
         "command": "npx",
         "args": ["-y", "rentec-direct-mcp"],
         "env": { "RENTEC_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here" }
       }
     }
   }
   

3. Restart your client and ask it about your portfolio.

See Installation for the self-hosted option.
