From sign-up to your first invoice

Set up a property, a tenant and a lease, and see the first rent invoice. About 20 minutes.

1. Create your account
   Register with your phone number and confirm the code we send you. Then name your workspace and say whether you are a landlord, a company or an agency.
2. Add a property
   Open Properties and add its name and where it is. If you manage it for someone else, add the owner.
3. Add the units
   Add each unit with its rent. If you have many, skip to the tutorial on bringing in a spreadsheet.
4. Add a tenant
   Open Tenants and add the name. A phone number is enough to start.
5. Start the lease
   From the unit page, start a lease: the tenant, start date, rent, due day and deposit.
6. Choose how tenants pay
   Connect your Paybill or Till (see the M-Pesa tutorial), or add a payment instruction such as a bank account for tenants to see.
7. Issue the invoice
   Invoices are made a few days before each month. To see one now, press Generate on Invoices.
