Properties & units

Your portfolio, one screen.

Track properties (buildings, villas, plots) and the units inside them. Each unit carries type (1BR / 2BR / shop / office), size, price, photos, and current lease status. The portfolio view shows occupancy at a glance.

  • Properties → Units hierarchy
  • Unit attributes: type, size, photos, parking, balcony, etc.
  • Occupancy dashboard with vacant / leased / under-renovation
  • Per-unit historical rent + tenant turnover
02.
Leases

Sign once. Bill forever. Auto-journal everywhere.

A lease binds a unit, a tenant, a rent amount, and a payment cadence. Activation posts a security-deposit journal (DR Bank / CR Tenant Security Deposits 2230) and, when the lease carries a commission, raises a separate Invoice routed to Lease Commission Revenue (4310). Termination clears the deposit per disposition: refund (CR Bank) or forfeit (CR Other Income). Cheque-by-cheque payment tracking with bounce + replace flow.

  • Activate → security-deposit liability journal (J-LEASE-DEP-{id})
  • Terminate with disposition: refund / forfeit / carry (operator picks)
  • Cheque cadence + auto-PaymentReceived on markCleared
  • Bounce a cheque → replacement cheque tracked separately
  • Lease end-date alerts 60 / 30 / 7 days out
03.
Tenant portal

A login for the people paying rent.

Each tenant gets a portal: see their lease, download invoices, pay online (when payment gateway is wired), file maintenance tickets, view ticket status. Reduces the "can I get a copy of my Ejari?" emails by 90%.

  • Self-service invoice download
  • Maintenance ticket submission with photos
  • Lease document download (Ejari, contract)
  • Online payment, when a payment gateway is wired
04.
Maintenance work orders

Tickets that don't fall through. Cost that routes itself.

Tenant files a maintenance request, it gets assigned to a vendor, completion captures actualCost + costBorneBy. The accounting subscriber then routes the journal automatically: `operator` → Bill against the vendor (line expense = Repairs & Maintenance 6250); `tenant` → Invoice against the active-lease customer (Utility Recovery Revenue 4500); `owner` → no immediate post, the cost flows onto the next owner statement.

  • Per-trade vendor assignment (plumber, electrician, AC, cleaning)
  • Cost-borne-by routing: operator→Bill, tenant→Invoice, owner→statement
  • Photo attachments, tenant + operator notifications
  • Idempotent on B-WO-{id} / INV-WO-{id} — re-runs are no-ops
05.
Meter readings

DEWA, SEWA, AADC, FEWA — pass-through invoicing.

Record monthly utility meter readings per unit (electricity, water, cooling, gas). When you flip a reading to `pass_through_to_tenant`, the accounting handler raises an Invoice against the unit's active tenant for consumption × unitCost, revenue routed to Utility Recovery Revenue. The reading row stamps back the linked invoiceId so you can drill from meter → invoice in one click.

  • DEWA / SEWA / AADC / ADDC / FEWA / EMPOWER / TABREED providers
  • Unit-cost snapshot per reading (historical tariff preservation)
  • pass_through_to_tenant flips trigger Invoice MTR-{id}
  • Active-lease resolution: invoice goes to the current tenant automatically
06.
Owner statements

Pay the owner. Automatically.

Periodic owner statements roll up gross revenue, operator expenses, management fees, net payout. Issuing a statement raises a Bill against the owner-as-vendor (the PropertyOwner.vendorId satellite link). Marking it paid creates a PaymentMade against that bill. Voiding voids the bill. Your A/P shows exactly what you owe each owner without manual journal entry.

  • Issued → Bill OWN-STMT-{id} against PropertyOwner.vendorId
  • Mark paid → PaymentMade against the bill (back-stamps statement.paymentMadeId)
  • Multi-currency: book in your base, pay owner in their preferred currency
  • Voiding from issued state cleanly voids the underlying Bill
For UAE landlords

The boring parts, automated. The accounting parts, too.

Most property tools are built for US-style monthly rent + 12-month leases — and they all stop at "exports a CSV to your accountant." NovaCept Property handles UAE's quarterly cheques, annual upfront leases, and Ejari-style residential agreements, AND every operational action (lease activation, work order completion, meter reading pass-through, owner payout) auto-posts the matching journal in your books. Zero manual reconciliation between operations and accounting.
