If the housing sector has long resisted the development of digitization, the Élan law of 23 November 2018 wanted to give the market a boost.

Dematerialization of documents intended for the tenant, end of the handwritten guarantee or even digital lease are all measures that make it possible to manage a remote rental.

Real estate agencies and start-ups of all kinds have therefore hastened to develop suitable digital tools.

Transparency

Thanks to software that automates the sending of rental receipts and reminders by mail or electronic mail, omissions and delays are a bad memory.

Likewise, if the extranet is still marginal, this service is gradually being extended to real estate agencies, who see it as an opportunity to offer their owner clients a personal online space where they can easily find all the documents. relating to their property.

These digital services are now adopted by large national networks, such as that of Orpi agencies, which have integrated the Clac tools to manage rental applications, Chouette Copro, dedicated to building managers, and Zelok , a secure space centralizing rental management.

Social landlords too

For its part, the free platform of the start-up Appliceo is aimed at both landlords who manage their property themselves, real estate agencies and tenants.

Dashboard, space dedicated to each one, creation and automation of payment notices and rent receipts or even simplified management of the lease are possible directly online.

Social landlords are not left out, since solutions are dedicated to them such as that of Neybs, a notification application that allows tenants of social housing to receive information relating to their building directly on their phone in real time.

Lower the bill

Beyond a communication supposed to be more effective, the main argument of dematerialization is to lower the cost of rental management.

According to a survey carried out in 2019 on the Parisian market by Homepilot, an owner must indeed pay each year the equivalent of 7.5% of the rents and charges collected when he delegates the management of his property to a real estate agency.

Knowing that we must add the equivalent of 2.7% of cash receipts for rental fees.

To lower the bill, many landlords are turning to 100% online management platforms such as Homepilot.fr, Flatlooker.com or even Smartloc.fr.

All these sites offer to manage your property remotely thanks to an automated dashboard and at a reduced cost.
