Report Overview

The global property management software market size was valued at USD 3.04 billion in 2021 and is expected to exhibit a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6% from 2022 to 2030. The market is expected to witness an incremental surge in demand for Property Management Software (PMS) owing to escalating demand for web-based services including Software as a Service (SaaS) by property management software providers.

It mainly offers online document storage and sharing, electronic lease agreements, financial reporting, online maintenance requests and tracking, accounting capabilities, and integrated banking among other applications. In recent years, PMS solutions have shifted from manual to automatic management solutions. The automatic property management solution has improved the property management software system, thereby decreasing human errors and allowing property managers to allocate work assignments efficiently to avoid interruptions in service. An automatic PMS helps in reducing the time taken in responding to complaints and grievances of tenants or owners.

Also, it simplifies the property management procedures by facilitating rent collection processes, tracking finances, reducing communication gaps, and storing and leasing documents and contracts, among others. Whereas, in traditional ways of property management the data is entered manually using Microsoft Excel, Notepad, or other spreadsheets, which makes the process slow, inefficient, and prone to errors. Also, landlords either manage their estate themselves or hire third-party property managers, which involves more workforce and time investment. Thus, property management software was formed to evade human errors and streamline the work through automation. The easy availability of PMS has automated and simplified the work of owners and estate managers.

Moreover, PMS solutions and computer record-keeping have significantly augmented the productivity of hospitality industries by updating and centralizing multiple computers and devices records. Also, PMS solutions can be customized as per the requirement of the hospitality industry to further upsurge ease of operations, including automation of bookings, hotel inventory supply management, check-in and check-out, Point of Sale (POS) integration, security and room locks, food and beverage costing, and reporting of Key Performance Indicators (KPI). Moreover, the advent of cloud technology is one of the key advances in the software industry. Cloud technology has significantly changed the way software applications are operated and provided to end-users.

This change has allowed software developers to focus on the technology feature of software while outsourcing the management feature to cloud service companies. SaaS software facilitates multifamily property management enterprises to easily integrate PMS software across the portfolio. SaaS platforms enable property managers to integrate advanced payment solutions with their property management software for easy and continuous transactions. In the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak, there has been a significant disturbance in most industries worldwide. While few industries experienced a contraction in their businesses and productions, others faced severe outcomes, such as the shutdown of businesses and movement restrictions, among others.

However, during the pandemic, the real estate industry experienced both a surge and decline all at once. In the initial phases of the pandemic (Q1 & Q2), real estate companies, managers, and property owners were majorly concerned with keeping visitors and tenants safe and adhering to governmental laws and regulations. As a result, decreased real estate property sales. Although several corporate offices, schools, and colleges are still closed, businesses are opting for the work-from-home option. On the contrary, the pandemic provided property managers an opportunity to introduce and use new automation tools, such as smart and AI-enabled property management software. The AI-enabled management tool collects the data through Wi-Fi and automatically responds to leads, helping in reducing operational risks and improving customer service.
