Rental Management with Odoo is a multi-dimensional yet easy, fast, reliable, and straightforward process. There are tens of vital things that easily, and smoothly go along with Odoo’s rental management module. Odoo’s Rental management module is free for you If you’re a new customer. That’s quite a compelling case to adopt Odoo ERP if you’re looking for an established, well-integrated, vetted by millions of users, and open-source ERP for your business.
Rental management begins with the simple case of keeping the prices and dates in check. However, as the rental business and the number of goods expands or diversifies, manually handling the complexity of dates, fluctuating prices, locations, distances, maintenance, and tens of other variables swiftly becomes a challenging task to control accurately. Considering such scenarios, Odoo’s Rental Management is nothing less of a wizard in simplifying your job and keeping your customers happy with straightforward rental management.
Rental companies are spread over hundreds of business sectors, overlapping with almost every business under the sun. They include but are not limited to construction, equipment, logistics, transportation, engineering, storage space, goods, land, house, room, apartments, events, office space, technical and non-technical human resources, wearables (clothes, costumes, party dresses, etc.), and the list goes on. Effective rental business management requires track of the number and condition of rentals, start and end dates (duration of rental), price per item per time unit, maintenance cost, and recovery conditions. The business does not end when the customer returns the rentals and invoices are cleared. In reality, a rental business company must also be aware of the rentals’ condition, wear and tear, the potential for growth, the most demanding customers, and many other reporting factors which are at the core of the strategy to expand and neatly profit from the rental business.
All these factors can effectively be handled by Odoo’s Rental Management module which is also integrable with in-house complementary modules such as inventory, invoicing, and maintenance among others. The cherry on the top is the world’s leading customer support, and on-demand customizations provided via 1668, silver, and gold partners spread in more than a hundred countries around the world.
What type of challenges can you face in rental management?
a. Property Advertisement.
With rentals, vacancies are inevitable. Consistently ensuring that your rental unit or property is being rented out is a time-consuming task. In order to combat vacancies, marketing needs to be a top priority. This includes highlighting all the images and features of the rental property, where it’s located, what are its amenities, what’s included, and so much more.
Not only does the ad have to be enticing, but it also must be accurate. After every renter, things may change within the property. Any and all changes must be noted in the ad, every single time an ad is posted. This can get repetitive, tedious, and especially overwhelming if you have multiple rental properties under your belt.
b. Exhausting task of Rent and Bill Collection.
It is always great when a renter (tenant) pays on time and the full amount. Unfortunately, that is an ideal scenario. There are instances, more common than not when a tenant is unable to pay on time. Or, perhaps, they cannot pay in full. Even your reliable renters may have setbacks which could result in delayed payments. Worst case, a tenant refuses to pay – for whatever reason. This would force you to chase tenants down for the rent or go to court to retrieve the rent owed. Not only is this process tiresome, but it can also be quite costly – depending on where your rental property is.
c. Improper Document Management.
Renting a property out is one thing but managing documentation surrounding it is another. From the papers, you received when you purchased your property, to the leases you created when renting it out, to the invoices generated throughout the process, to the rent receipts, and everything in between; all of it must be managed and documented properly. As the business grows, or as you rent out more property, the papers that will need to be managed will grow too. This means you will have files upon files to take care of, and failing to manage them correctly could, and likely would result in legal consequences.
