Mileage Tracker
Untracked mileage could be costing you $1000s
Use our in-built automatic GPS mileage tracker and make the most of your mileage deduction this tax year.
Only 17% of surveyed landlords said they tracked all of their mileage in 2022. Yet 54% said they traveled more than 500 miles for their properties over the same year.
Landlords that track their mileage with Landlord Studio save $1000’s more every year at tax time than those that don’t.

How It Works
- Log in to the app and open the mileage tracker
- Start a new journey. The app will run in the background to accurately track your route.
- At the end of the journey, open your phone back up and “End Journey”

At the end of the year, run your Schedule E report, and we’ll automatically calculate your mileage deduction using the current IRS standard mileage rate.
Landlord Studio is the easiest way to keep a detailed and accurate mileage log for your rental business.
