Set up the workspace, follow the property lifecycle and use the exact Free, Plus and Pro boundary for every connected workflow.
During setup, tell Chaabi how you work, choose the jobs you want help with, and name the dashboard and organization. These choices establish the workspace where your operating records live.
Build the record from the property outward. Add the property, add its units, then connect tenants, rent activity and work orders to the correct place.
The organization workspace is the boundary around one operation. Its properties, units, people and operating records stay together, and a separate organization keeps a separate set of records.
The iPhone and iPad app remains the manager's command center. Plus and Pro can connect that workspace to cloud sync and hosted portals; the workspace itself is not a promise of live multi-staff permissions.
The plans change capacity and operating depth. StoreKit-localized pricing in the App Store is authoritative, so this guide focuses on what each plan includes.
A property is the home for its units, tenants, leases, work orders and operating history. Start there so later records inherit the correct building and unit context.
Free supports one property with up to two units. Plus supports up to 25 properties with unlimited units per property. Pro removes those limits and adds Sites for grouping related buildings such as a campus, plaza or multi-building community.
Vacancy marketing and the lead pipeline are included with Plus and Pro. Keep the unit being filled, listing activity, inquiry source, notes and next follow-up in one leasing flow.
When a prospect is ready, send an application link tied to that opportunity instead of rebuilding their context in a separate record.
Application records and their review states are available in the core app on every plan. Create an application directly, keep its supporting details together, and move it through New, Reviewing, Approved, Declined or Converted.
Plus and Pro add the hosted Applicant Portal, lead and vacancy context, approved-applicant conversion, and the guided Ontario lease workflow with generated PDF.
Tenant records, rent roll and payment tracking are core features on every plan. A tenant profile keeps the unit and household context together with notes, communications, tickets, attachments and financial history.
Use the rent roll to review paid, partial and outstanding states by month and record payments against the correct tenancy. The guided lease wizard and hosted Resident Portal require Plus or Pro.
Work orders and vendor records are core features on every plan. Connect the property, unit, tenant, owner and assigned vendor as needed, then keep scope, schedule, status, attachments and completion evidence on the job.
The hosted Vendor Portal requires Plus or Pro cloud sync. It gives the assigned vendor a focused view of the scope, access instructions, timing and attachments, with field updates returning to the work-order record.
Building Controls is a Pro feature for property internals, equipment and asset records. Track identity, condition, warranty, vendors, service history, next-service dates, linked tasks, expenses and activity at the physical-system level.
Use Upkeep for replaceable parts and recurring service items. Furnace defaults can track an air filter on a 90-day interval alongside items such as humidifier panels, burner cleaning and vent or intake inspection, with due and overdue reminders.
Free can keep one uploaded floor-plan PDF. Plus and Pro remove the floor-plan cap and add manual sketching, camera-based corner capture and LiDAR scanning on supported devices.
Keep the result with the unit and choose the export purpose and layers needed for leasing, internal property management, maintenance or renovation planning. Captured dimensions are planning references, not certified drawings.
Trust records and audit history are available in the core app without a premium gate. Trust supports owner trust, tenant bond or deposit, and mixed account records with beneficiary balances, transaction history and three-way reconciliation.
The workspace Audit Log is append-only and exportable, while applications, invoices, tenants, work orders, assets and other records keep their own activity or revision histories. These are recordkeeping tools, not legal, accounting or compliance certification.
Cloud sync and hosted portals are included with Plus and Pro. Cloud connection is opt-in; enable it for the organization when you want backup, cross-device synchronization or a hosted browser portal.
Synced records remain organization-scoped. Cloud restore merges records it finds and does not delete records that exist only on the device.
Plus and Pro can connect four focused participant portals to the organization workspace. A separate public Leads Portal publishes shareable property or unit listings for prospective renters.
Multi-staff invitations and configurable team permissions are coming soon. They are not a live Free, Plus or Pro capability in the current app.
Organization roles exist in the underlying workspace model, but the current Team screen is only a scaffold. Do not rely on it to invite staff, authenticate additional users or enforce custom permissions yet.
