Housing management software streamlines operations for housing associations by automating duties such as rent collecting, maintenance requests, and tenant contacts. It streamlines property management while increasing tenant happiness.
Housing management services include tenant management, property maintenance, financial control, and adherence to housing legislation. The purpose is to keep properties in good condition, meet the needs of tenants, and ensure that daily operations run smoothly.
A strong housing management system should include all of the processes that enable any registered social landlord to efficiently manage their property stock and the residents who live in those units while conforming to all legislation. A housing management system will often comprise modules for rent administration, arrears management, customer relations management, tenancy management, reactive repairs, compliance, assets and planned maintenance, resident and contactor portals, and a mobile app. It should also provide effective and centralised communication with residents, utilising their preferred communication methods on the go.
Moving from one housing management provider to another might feel daunting, but there are practical ways to transition between systems. When beginning the implementation process, stick to the following principles to dramatically boost your chances of success.
- One module at a time_ Don’t try and do everything at once, start with one process and gradually go live
- As is/to be_ Avoid mapping your processes and settling on which processes to keep as these will likely change as the project progresses
- Data first_ Begin data migration on core tables as soon as possible
- Bring the users with you_ Engage with users as early as possible and make them feel like they’re part of the journey
- Set expectations_ Effectively setting expectations can prevent scope creep and disillusionment; like for like implementations work best
- Embrace the 80% rule_ When rolling out processes stick with the 80% rule, if it does 80% of what you need move on to the next process; you can always come back and refine later
- Be partners_ Work in partnership with your provider, foster an honest and open connection, and the inevitable project challenges will be resolved more quickly
Property management software expenses vary according to the size of the housing organisation. Pricing also depends on the amount of modules that a housing organisation wishes to integrate.
