Buildium Online Property Management Software - Free Trial


WHY YOU SHOULD BUY BUILDIUM?
My Buildium Online Property Management Software Review

When I was asked by my Condominium Board to look into different Property Management software and tools, I was skeptical of what lay ahead. There are many Property Management Software tools on the market today so it took some work but I managed to narrow my search down to Buildium. When I compared it with the competition, Buildium seemed easy to use as was proven by the 15 day free trial period. Each screen has help tips built right into it and the 24/7 online support team is amazing. We have been using Buildium for almost a year now and it has helped us operate our Condominium Corporation in a much more professional manner. It took me weeks to wade through the various competitors so I thought that I'd share what I found here for other who are looking for the same Property Management tools. Let me cut to the chase - save your time and sign up for your free 15 day trial you will never look back!

What is Buildium

Buildium Property Management software is an online tool geared to Individual & Professional Property Managers, Condominium Boards, Home Owners Associations, Individual Landlords and Commercial Real-estate Owners. With the Buildium tools you can manage 1 unit or 1000's of units from the same web based interface. Your data is safely stored on the secure Buildium servers. Buildium allows you to maintain your accounting, track tenants, handle work orders, accept online payments and so much more. These tools come in three different flavors:
There is a Buildium Property Managers Edition that is aimed at the professionals that need tools to maintain multi-tenant or multiunit operations. And there is the Buildium Association Edition that is designed to provide everything that you will need to operate a Home Owners Association or Condominium Board. Finally there is the Buildium Landlord Edition for the individual owner-operator who manages their own property management.

Who Uses Buildium Management Software?

As I hinted at in the previous paragraph, Buildium Property Management Software is used by three main groups. The first group using the Buildium Property Management Edition are professionals who maintain and operate anywhere from a few to many rental properties. This group can include property management companies, industrial real-estate companies, sub contractors and apartment managers. The second group using the Buildium Association Edition are usually Condominium Associations, Home Owner Associations or Professional Property Management firms hired to maintain a group of self managed communities. And the third group that uses Buildium Property Management Software are Owner-Operator Landlords who act as their own property managers.

What Does Buildium Cost?

First of all, for what you get, Buildium is dirt cheap. Buildium's pricing scheme is tiered on the number of units that you would like to manage and you can pay by the month or by one yearly price. You save a little with the yearly price so we just chose that option.

For example 0 to 5 units cost US$9.99 per month or US$99.00 per year.
Up to 25 units cost US$19.99 per month or US$215.00 per year.
There rates go up and up 650 units at only US$174.99 per month or US$1890.00 per year!
(Over 650 they ask you to call for a special quote)
The prices are the same for either the Property Managers Edition, Landlord Edition or the Association Edition.
