Property management

Tenants, trustees, and owners need different views of the same building. Spreadsheets break when portfolios grow past a handful of units.

Property management software for South African businesses

Property ops in SA include sectional title rules, arrears processes, and maintenance vendors paid on approval. Software should mirror your mandate letters and trustee reporting, not a generic US landlord template.

Challenges we see in property management

Arrears tracking

Who owes what, which reminders went out, and what legal step is next lives in personal notes.

Maintenance black holes

Tickets start on WhatsApp and end without cost allocation to the right owner or body corporate.

Owner reporting fatigue

Monthly packs are rebuilt manually from bank exports and emails.

Automation leverage

  • Tenant and owner portals

    Statements, tickets, and documents available without calling the agent.

  • Maintenance workflows

    Assign vendors, capture quotes, and close jobs with photo proof.

  • Portfolio dashboards

    Occupancy, arrears aging, and capex plans per building or mandate.

Workflow examples

Illustrative flows we map during discovery. Your build will follow your rules, payments, and integrations.

Arrears escalation

Consistent reminders with audit trail.

  1. Invoice generated on schedule
  2. Reminder at 7 and 30 days
  3. Trustee pack includes ledger and communication log
  4. Payment plan recorded if approved

Maintenance from ticket to invoice

Vendors paid against approved work.

  1. Tenant logs issue with photos
  2. Agent assigns approved vendor
  3. Completion signed off
  4. Cost allocated to owner or BC account

Digitize leases and maintenance first

Share portfolio size and trustee reporting needs. We phase owner portals after internal ops trust the data.
