Kodi collected, receipts sent, arrears visible

Rent collection and tenant management for landlords with rental houses, rooms and self-contained units.

What it does

Rental House Management

Most Tanzanian landlords are not property companies. They own a few houses or a block of rooms, collect rent in cash or by mobile money, and keep it all in their head and a notebook. It works until it does not: a tenant who insists they paid, six months of arrears nobody added up, a deposit that becomes an argument at the end of a tenancy.

Tanzania

Built for how landlords here actually operate

Withholding tax on rent — computed and shown separately, so the landlord knows the net before the tax question arrives.
Mobile money receipts — an SMS receipt the moment payment is recorded, which ends most payment disputes.
Deposit accountability — what was held, what was deducted and why, with the tenant having received the same record.
Kiswahili messages — reminders and receipts sent to tenants in Kiswahili.
Works on a phone — a landlord with six houses does not want a desktop system; rent is recorded from the phone.

How we work

Scoped first, built in phases

We look at the process

Not a sales meeting. We sit with the people who do the work now and find where the time and money actually go.

You get a written scope

What will be built, what it costs, how long it takes, and what is explicitly out of scope. In writing, before anything starts.

Built in phases

The part that hurts most is delivered first and put into real use, so value arrives before the whole project is finished.

Trained and supported

Your staff are trained on the real system with real data, and support continues after go-live.

Runs on your own server if you want it to. Internet in Tanzania is not guaranteed. Systems can be installed on a machine at your premises so the business keeps working during an outage, syncing when the connection returns.

Frequently asked

Rental House Management — questions we get

I only have eight houses. Is this worth it?

Yes, and it is priced for that. The value at small scale is the receipt trail and the arrears list — the two things that cost small landlords the most money and the most arguments.

How is this different from your property management system?

That one is built for managing agents and commercial buildings, with service charges, dollar leases and owner remittances. This one is built for a landlord with rental houses and rooms, collecting rent by mobile money.

Do tenants get a receipt automatically?

Yes, by SMS as soon as the payment is recorded, in Kiswahili or English.

Can I use it from my phone?

Yes. Recording a payment, checking who owes and sending a reminder are all designed to be done from a phone.
