The problem with other 3rd party direct debit payments platforms on the market is it takes too long to settle funds. This means tenants have to pay their rent 4 to 5 days in advance to ensure funds clear to your trust account.
With SimpleRent, your trust accountant will love that funds clear to your trust account in 2 days. Which means tenant payments will be scheduled only 2 business days in advance, not 4 or 5.
Property Managers can now see tenant's failed payments even before the trust accountant reconciles. So PM's you can now be one step ahead of the game.
Tenant fails to pay...we've got your back. Here is how our Automation will help you:
Simple!
As a Property Manager, sometimes you just need to know if a payment for rent or a water bill goes through. With SimpleRent you can view the details of all payments, past, present and future.
With our Direct Debit solution, rent and all other invoices can be added.
Simply add the invoice and set the date for payment.
SimpleRent will automatically notify the tenant via email that there is no need to action the invoice, it will automatically be charged to the tenant's preapproved account.
Imagine this, rent goes up by $15. You change the rent amount in SimpleRent, set the start date for the change. Then SimpleRent automatically notifies the tenant of the change and adjusts all future payments. Done in 60 seconds!
As a 3rd Party system, Agencies can pass the cost of transactions to the tenant to ensure the full amount of rent, bond and bills are accessible for the landlord. SimpleRent keeps you compliant with the latest rules on surcharge from the Reserve Bank of Australia.
