Xero App Series: PropertyMe

Welcome to the ninth instalment of our Xero App Series, covering some of the best and most popular Xero add-ons that may assist in your business.

Over the last few months, we’ve explored Spotlight Reporting, Receipt Bank, CloudPayroll, Deputy, Vend, HubSpot, ezyCollect and GoCardless. In case you’ve missed them, here’s our quick introduction about why we’re running this series.

In this blog series, we wanted to draw your attention not to Xero’s core features but to the 800+ add-on apps that feature in Xero’s App Marketplace of approved third-party software providers and products. This ecosystem of added functionality is part of Xero’s winning edge over other accounting systems, bringing a world of additional possibility, insight and power to your business.

Over the coming months, we’re going to look at a different Xero app each month and explore the significant added value it brings. These apps are in use all over the world and are some of the most popular currently available in the App Marketplace.

We would be very happy to assist you with any further questions, especially if you are interested in a trial implementation at your business!

This month, we’re on to…

Founding details:

PropertyMe was founded in Australia in 2013 by pioneers who envisioned a holistic single solution and integrated ecosystem allowing property managers to specialise their services by having repetitive/routine tasks automated. PropertyMe is now the largest cloud property management platform in Australia and New Zealand, assisting the real estate industry in processing more than $1 billion every month and facilitating in excess of 4.1 million conversations, 1.5 million maintenance jobs and 1.1 million inspections annually.

Scenario:

Are you in property management and tired of repetitive tasks taking up your time? Or are you sick of using numerous tools to help juggle your workload? PropertyMe can act as your one-stop-shop solution to help you automate tasks, save time and coordinate your business activities with ease.

About:

PropertyMe brings together the key functions of property management into one powerful cloud solution that aims to fulfil the evolving needs of the modern day property manager. Below we scratch the surface on some of the many features the tool provides.

The software provides real-time tracking of key insights like rental arrears, reconciliations, vacancies, jobs, inspections and more. It also allows you to customise KPIs and keep track of them on the one dashboard, whether it be properties gained and lost, tenants in arrears, average reply times, open conversations, overdue tasks and more. 

Through PropertyMe, you’re able to automate personal communications with your owners, tenants and suppliers via emails, letters and SMS messages. These can be created using the templates provided (or you may create your own), after which you can set up custom trigger points for the actions to occur.

Other great tools PropertyMe provides are customised inspection itineraries, complete with distances and drive times between properties, the ability to drag and drop images and documents into each job (and track the status of all jobs from start to finish), bill scanning functionality to be able to pay supplier and utility bills on behalf of your owners in a matter of seconds, as well as data entry and accounting functionality.

Integration with Xero:

Simply connect your Xero account within PropertyMe and your agency data will be automatically synced. This eliminates the time associated with data entry and reduces the risk of data entry errors, so you can have peace of mind knowing that accurate figures are transferred from PropertyMe to Xero.
