Owning scattered units across buildings you don't manage
Plenty of landlords never run a building. They own a condo here and two there, inside towers with their own management and their own dues. The platform treats that as a first-class shape, not a workaround.
Setting it up
- One place per building, named for the tower, with its address. Choose the shape Managed by someone else.
- Add only your units — "14C", "22B". The tower's other units are not yours and do not exist here.
- Record the building's charges as expenses against the unit. Condo dues, the building's water and power recharges, parking. Set them as monthly repeating expenses once.
- Everything else is normal. Clients, leases, deposits, invoices, the portal, the P&L. A tenant in 14C sees exactly the portal a tenant in your own building sees.
What the platform does not ask
No rota — you do not clean the corridors. No gate or logbook — the building has its own guard. No common-area expenses to split — the condo corporation does that and sends you the bill, which is just an expense here. My day shows the unit's occupancy and money, not a "building" card for a building you do not run.
Turnover and repairs
You probably still clean between tenants and fix the aircon. Housekeeping for a scattered unit is a job, not a rota: Housekeeping › Jobs › New, pick the unit, pick who, pick when. Repairs are tickets as usual, with contractors and costs landing on the unit.
Dashboard
Each scattered place gets a card, or they fold into one "Scattered units" card that lists them — Arrange on My day lets you pick. Money pages filter by place like any other.
