Property management is information-heavy by nature. Repairs, inspections, certificates, tenancies and communications all need to stay aligned across a growing portfolio. Many SMEs end up managing this through spreadsheets, email threads and a mixture of systems that don’t quite join up. A bespoke web app can bring everything together into one reliable, auditable platform.
Why Property Managers Outgrow Generic Platforms
Off-the-shelf property systems can work well at first, but common frustrations appear as portfolios grow:
- Repairs logged across email, phone calls and messaging apps
- Inspection records stored separately from property data
- Compliance certificates tracked in spreadsheets
- Limited flexibility around workflows and reporting
- Rising per-user costs as teams expand
What a Bespoke Property Management Web App Covers
1) Properties, Tenancies and Contacts
- Single source of truth for properties, units and portfolios
- Tenancy details, key dates and documentation in one place
- Linked landlord, tenant and contractor contacts
2) Repairs and Maintenance Management
- Central repair logging with priorities and categories
- Assignment to contractors or in-house teams
- Status tracking from request to completion
- Photos and notes stored against the property
3) Inspections and Condition Reporting
- Structured inspection templates (check-in, mid-term, check-out)
- Consistent data capture across inspectors
- Photos tied to rooms, items or issues
- Automatic condition report generation
4) Compliance and Certificate Tracking
- Gas, electrical, EPC and safety certificates stored centrally
- Expiry tracking and automated reminders
- Compliance dashboards across the portfolio
- Evidence ready for audits or landlord queries
5) Landlord and Tenant Portals
- Tenants log repairs and view updates online
- Landlords access reports, documents and activity
- Controlled access so each party sees only relevant data
Reporting Without the Monthly Scramble
Because data is captured consistently, reporting becomes straightforward:
- Open vs completed repairs
- Inspection completion and findings
- Compliance status by property or landlord
- Response and resolution times
Try Asking…
- “Which properties have compliance items expiring in 30 days?”
- “Show all open repairs by contractor and priority.”
- “Generate a landlord report for this quarter.”
If your property data feels fragmented, a bespoke web app can bring clarity without forcing you into someone else’s workflow.
