Lease lifecycle

Lease management software that carries each tenancy from letter of offer to renewal or hand-back

  1. 1

    Letter of offer

    The offer sets rent, term, deposit and conditions, and goes out for e-signing.

  2. 2

    Agreement and stamping

    The signed tenancy agreement, its IRAS stamp certificate and the deposit are filed on the lease.

  3. 3

    Rent schedule

    Rent, step increases, rent-free months and service charges become a monthly billing schedule.

  4. 4

    Key date alerts

    Expiry, break and option dates raise reminders, say six and three months ahead.

  5. 5

    Renewal or hand-back

    A renewal carries the lease forward; a hand-back starts the inspection and the deposit refund.

Rent and arrears

Rent schedules, escalations and arrears in your rental management software

Once a lease is saved, its rent schedule bills itself: step rents, rent-free months, service charges and GST for GST-registered landlords. Turnover rent is calculated from the sales retail tenants report, and our invoicing software sends invoices, receipts and reminders.

  • Escalations applied on the dates the lease sets
  • Arrears by tenant and age, with staged reminders
  • PayNow and GIRO payments matched to the right invoice
  • Rent roll and lease expiry profile for each property

AI lease management software features

Built using information from your own leases; staff confirm any change.

Tenancy agreements read into the lease

AI reads a signed agreement or letter of offer and fills in rent, dates, deposit and break clauses for your team to confirm.

Drafted renewal offers and notices

AI drafts renewal offers, rent review letters and expiry notices from the lease, for a manager to check.

Questions about your own leases

Ask which retail leases expire next quarter or which tenants have a break date this year, and see the leases behind it.

Rent and vacancy forecasts

AI projects rent due and units likely to fall vacant in the coming months, from leases on hand and past renewals.

Anomaly checks on rent billing

AI flags rent billed below the lease rate, an escalation that was missed, or a deposit lower than the lease requires.

WhatsApp and email tenant agent

An agent answers tenants' questions about rent, deposits or renewal dates from the lease, passing anything else to staff.

Questions

Lease management software FAQs

Lease management software keeps every lease and tenancy agreement on one register, bills rent from each lease's schedule, holds deposit and stamp duty records, and alerts you to expiry, break and review dates before they pass.

The system records which outgoings each lease passes to the tenant, such as service charges, utilities, insurance or maintenance, and bills them alongside rent. Gross, net and triple net are simply terms set on each lease.

Retail tenants report monthly sales through the tenant portal or by file upload, and the system calculates turnover rent as each lease sets it, alongside the base rent. Missing sales reports are flagged before invoices go out.

Rooms and beds can be let on licences with their own terms, all-in rents and deposits, alongside full leases for whole units. A resident who moves rooms keeps one history, from first licence to final hand-back.

The system records each agreement's IRAS stamp certificate and stamping date, and reminds you about any still unstamped. GST is added to commercial rent invoices for GST-registered landlords. It records and reminds; it never files.

The tenant's record shows the warning signs before you renew: rent paid late, arrears building up, a banker's guarantee about to lapse or repeated damage recharges. Payment history sits beside the lease, ready for the renewal discussion.

Lease management is a module of our Property Management Software, sharing units, tenants, billing, maintenance and the tenant portal. Leases and billing usually go into the first release, with AI features added in a later phase.

We import your current leases, rent schedules, deposits and open arrears from spreadsheets or your old system, then check them with your team. Signed agreements can be read by AI in bulk before go-live.

The AI features work using information from your own leases: agreements read into the lease record, drafted renewal offers, plain English questions, rent and vacancy forecasts, billing anomaly checks and a tenant agent. Staff confirm what changes.

The cost depends on scope: lease types, billing rules, turnover rent, deposits, integrations, data migration and AI, quoted against an agreed specification. Our solutions are eligible for government grants, which we cover during scoping.
