The property industry is ripe for better tech. We help founders build apps that solve real problems for agents, buyers, renters, or property managers.
No obligation. 45 minutes. We will map out what your PropTech idea needs.
The Australian property market moves billions of dollars every year on processes that are still largely manual. Agents use spreadsheets, landlords manage maintenance via phone calls, and buyers navigate an opaque process. There is a wide gap between how the industry works today and how it could work with the right software.
The best PropTech companies do not try to replace the industry — they make existing participants more effective. An agent CRM that actually fits how agents work, a rental management app that reduces the back-and-forth between landlords and tenants, a buyer portal that makes the offer process less stressful. These are the kinds of products that get adopted.
Data is central to every property product. Whether you are pulling property values, mapping listings, or tracking market trends, you need a clear plan for where your data comes from and how it stays current. We help you navigate the data landscape during Inception so you are not building on a foundation that breaks at scale.
Real estate apps often serve multiple user types — buyers, agents, property managers, landlords, tenants. Each user type has different workflows and different success metrics. We help you prioritise which user type to serve first and build the product from their perspective before layering in the others.
From property search platforms to rental management tools, here is what we build most often in the real estate and property space.
We build property search and listing platforms, rental management apps, buyer and vendor portals, property management tools for landlords and property managers, and investment tracking platforms. The specific product depends on which part of the property transaction or management process you are solving.
A PropTech app typically costs between $80,000 and $300,000 depending on the complexity of the property data integrations, transaction workflows, and user types involved. We scope everything in Inception and give you a fixed price before development starts.
REA Group and Domain have APIs but access is gated and requires commercial agreements. We can help you understand what is possible and what alternative data sources exist. Many PropTech apps pull data from CoreLogic, PriceFinder, or similar providers rather than the portals directly.
A well-scoped property app typically takes 14 to 20 weeks from first call to launch. The timeline depends heavily on the complexity of data integrations, the number of user types, and whether you need maps, search, and filtering at launch or can phase those in.
For consumer-facing property search tools, mobile is important because people browse property on their phones. For property management tools used primarily by agents or property managers, a web app often works well as the primary product. We help you make this call during Inception based on your specific users.
We integrate with Google Maps or Mapbox for property map views, and build search and filtering systems on top of your property data. For platforms that aggregate listings, we help you think through the data model and search architecture during Inception to make sure it scales.
We offer a free 45-minute Game Plan session for PropTech founders with a serious idea. We will look at your target user, the data challenges involved, and give you an honest view of what it would take to build a product that actually gets used.
