Property Boulevard is the most comprehensive, yet easy to use software for property management ever created. The differences between Property Boulevard and all competitors are so great and fundamentally important, that this software is considered by many as a brand new concept in property management software. The property management software will keep track of multiple buildings, and multiple users interfacing on a network.
Aside of the many features and ease of use, Property Boulevard introduces two concepts that uniquely distinguish it from all other similar software:
Concepts
To the extent possible, the accounting functions are placed at the background rather than at the forefront. In fact, the entire accounting and financial statements is just another module of the software, not the center.
The core philosophy of Property Boulevard is the business itself, not the reflection of that business via the narrow view of the accounting. This philosophy enables you to enter transactions in the most intuitive way, avoiding the struggle with accounting issues.
For example, a check (or cash) collected from a tenant is simply entered, without any dealing with debit, credit, or accounting balance. Property Boulevard does all of that accounting behind the screen. Make no mistake, the accounting functions of Property Boulevard are the strongest and the richest among all other software. Property Boulevard is [currently] the only software that simultaneously runs both, accrual-base and cash-base systems; thus, lets you print a full set of financial statements and switch between accrual and cash at your whim. However, none of this is prerequisite. If you wish, you may manage your property, collect rents, pay bills, issue legal notices, do repair and maintenance, and much more, without ever closing a month or print financial statements. Even bank-reconciliation is done independently. Closing each fiscal month and print financial statements is highly recommended, but not a must. If you wish, you may close once a quarter, or once a year, or never. Not closing a fiscal period shall not impair your ability to efficiently and effectively manage your business. You don?t have to be a CPA!
2 No Batches - Real Time Software.
There are no Loading, Posting, and Batches in Property Boulevard, unless it is the nature of the process. Each transaction stands on its own merit and is immediately visible to all other users on the network. This concept allows you to correct any mistake at its source, not just arithmetically offsetting it. You may delete an erroneous entry or correct it at any time. For example, if a wrong charge was entered, you may simply delete it at any time. If a mistake was made while entering payments from tenants, we can simple erase that mistake. Audit-trails are being kept at the background. That means that any list, ledger or report is clean and includes only valid transactions.
