Lavanda PMS is a cloud-based, award‑winning Property Management System (PMS) built specifically to meet the evolving needs of residential real estate operators. It centralises and automates tasks across marketing, leasing, resident experience, operations, accounting, and reporting — whether for short-term stays, long-term leases, co‑living, student housing, or serviced apartments.

Lavanda’s flexible platform enables property managers to deliver more accessible, affordable, and contemporary living experiences — all managed from a single intuitive tool.

The Lavanda PMS works best with one or more of the following types of residential assets:

  • Multifamily apartments — mix long-term and mid-term stays across your portfolio.

  • Student accommodation — manage academic‑year leases and short-stay rentals (e.g., summer stays) from the same system.

  • Co‑living buildings — support flexible leasing, resident community building, and streamlined operations.

  • Serviced apartments and short‑stay rentals — handle bookings, guest stays, housekeeping, and guest experience with the same platform.

Lavanda works equally well for portfolios composed of a single asset type or a mix of different types (long-term, short‑stay, student, co‑living, etc.), enabling flexible management across all assets.


Key features & functionality

Lavanda PMS offers a comprehensive suite of tools that cover every stage of property management and the resident lifecycle. Some of the main functional areas are:

Marketing & distribution

  • Manage and distribute your residential portfolio across multiple channels and listing sites. Includes deep integrations with major listing services and short‑stay platforms (Airbnb, Booking.com, etc.).

  • Use a built-in channel manager to update availability and handle bookings across your entire portfolio quickly.

Booking and leasing

  • Configure and automate bespoke booking and leasing journeys per property type or stay type. This covers both traditional long-term leases and hotel‑style short stays.

  • Automate guest/resident checks, identity verification (KYC), document signing (e.g., integrations with document tools), and compliance with leasing or tourism regulations.

Resident experience & living

  • Provide a branded resident experience, including access via a resident app. This helps residents engage with community features, book amenities, pay online, and access services.

  • Automate workflows for maintenance requests, housekeeping, check‑ins / check‑outs, and other operational tasks, improving efficiency and resident satisfaction.

Operations management

  • Use built-in tools for tickets, task management, workforce planning, and workflow automation to handle maintenance, move-ins, move-outs, housekeeping, and other operations.

Finance & accounting

  • Manage invoicing, billing cycles (weekly, fortnightly, monthly, etc.), deposits, payment,s and automated reconciliation.

  • Integrate with leading financial management systems (ERP / FMS) for hassle-free accounting and reporting.

  • Generate financial dashboards, keep track of receivables, and ensure compliance with local tax and invoicing regulations when applicable.

Data & reporting

  • Access a library of standard reports (rent roll, occupancy, leasing, housekeeping, lead conversion, booking performance, etc.) to monitor portfolio health and performance.

  • Build and share custom dashboards, and integrate with data platforms such as Google BigQuery, Tableau, or Power BI for deeper analytics and business intelligence.

  • Scalability and flexibility: Suitable for different types of real estate — from student housing to serviced apartments — and adaptable to changing market demands (long-term, short-term, mixed use).

  • Integration capability: Lavanda can integrate with many third‑party services (financial systems, data analytics tools, guest services, listing platforms), but you should verify regulatory or local compliance needs for invoicing, payments, or leasing laws for your country/region.
