How to Navigate the Landager Dashboard
A complete tour of the Landager interface. Learn how to use the sidebar navigation, understand dashboard metrics, and find every feature from properties to support tickets.
The Landager interface is built to be intuitive. We removed the complicated menus found in enterprise software and replaced them with a clean, unified dashboard.
This guide gives you a complete tour of the interface so you know exactly where everything lives.
The Dashboard Overview (Your Command Center)
When you log in, you land on the Dashboard Overview. Think of this as the heartbeat of your rental business. It pulls data from across the platform to give you an instant summary of your portfolio health.
Key Metric Cards
At the top of the dashboard, you'll see your vital stats:
- Total Properties: How many properties you currently manage.
- Units In Use: Your current unit count versus your subscription limit.
- Active Tenants: Your total number of current tenants and the occupancy rate as a percentage.
- Rent Collected: Total rent collected this month versus total due, displayed as a progress bar with a collection rate percentage.
- Open Maintenance Requests: How many unresolved maintenance requests need attention.
Revenue Snapshot
Below the metric cards, the Revenue Snapshot gives you a visual breakdown including collection progress and a Total Units / Occupied Units / Vacant Units overview.
Recent Activity Feed
A timeline showing the 10 most recent actions across the system — tenant added, lease created, expense logged, payment recorded, and more.
Export Report
Generate a PDF report of your portfolio data from the Reports page, perfect for sharing with partners or preparing for tax season. (Excel export is not available in the UI).
The Left-Hand Sidebar (Global Navigation)
The sidebar is your main navigation and is visible on every page. It's organized into logical sections:
Overview
- Dashboard: Your command center and portfolio overview.
- Properties: Your database of physical real estate assets and the individual units within them.
- Tenants: Your tenant directory with contact details, emergency contacts, and status tracking.
- Leases: The legal agreements connecting tenants to units with rent amounts, dates, and uploaded documents.
Management
- Maintenance: The request system for repairs and upkeep, with priority levels, photo uploads, cost tracking, and vendor assignment.
- Payments: Track rent payments and log payment details. Tenants are emailed a receipt automatically when a payment is recorded.
- Expenses: Log every property-related cost, attach receipts and invoices (up to 30 MB), and assign vendors.
- Reports: Generate PDF reports for your portfolio, properties, units, payments, expenses, and maintenance.
Bottom Links
- Support Tickets: Contact the Landager support team through a built-in helpdesk with threaded replies.
- Documentation: Access the full Landager documentation in a new tab.
- Dashboard Tour: Launch an interactive walkthrough of the dashboard UI anytime.
The Top Navigation Bar
The top bar provides quick actions:
- Dark Mode Toggle: A sun/moon icon to instantly flip between Light and Dark mode. (Read more about Switching Themes)
- Language Switcher: A globe icon to change the interface language.
- Profile Menu: Quick access to Settings, account options, and sign-out.
