Property management software built for Botswana.
Bodulo is a single system for running a Botswana property portfolio: properties and units, tenants and leases, rent collection and arrears, maintenance, and the reporting that ties it together. Built around how property is actually managed here.
The problems most portfolios run into
Rent gets tracked in one spreadsheet, maintenance requests come in over WhatsApp, and the owner statement gets rebuilt by hand at month-end from three different sources that don't quite agree. None of that scales past a handful of properties without someone quietly carrying the whole portfolio in their head. Bodulo replaces the spreadsheets and the side-channel messages with one connected system your whole team works from.
Portfolio and unit management
- A record for every property and every unit: size, rent, and current status (vacant, onboarding, or occupied)
- Search, filter and sort your whole portfolio, or scope a team member to just the properties they manage
- A live occupancy picture across the portfolio, not a snapshot someone has to rebuild by hand
Tenant and lease management
- Invite a tenant to claim their unit, or bring on an existing tenancy during onboarding
- Lease terms, rent, deposit, and renewal dates tracked from the start of a tenancy to its end
- A tenant-facing portal so tenants see their own lease, payments and requests without calling the office
Rent collection and arrears management
- Rent charges raised on schedule against each active lease, with payments recorded against them as they come in
- Arrears tracked and aged automatically, so an outstanding balance never goes quiet
- Deposit balances tracked separately from rent, with release recorded through the tenancy workflow
- A real double-entry ledger behind every figure: the number on a report and the number in the books are the same number
Property maintenance management
In-house work
Assign a job straight to your own maintenance team: no bidding, no quote. It closes once the tenant confirms it's done, no payer sign-off needed.
Contractor work
Post a job to the open board for contractors to bid on, or assign it directly to a contractor you already trust.
Tracked to sign-off
A contractor job carries its original report and photos through tenant confirmation and the commercial verification/payment workflow before it counts as closed.
Finance and reporting workflows
- A rent roll and an arrears-ageing report that reflect the ledger, not a spreadsheet someone updates separately
- Vacancy and maintenance performance reports, ready when you need them
- Owner statements built from the same ledger as everything else: one source of truth, not a reconciled-by-hand summary
- Export what you need for your own records or a landlord's
Built for a team, not one person
A property management firm runs on more than one person. Bodulo gives every role on your team (director, property manager, finance, maintenance coordinator, admin) the access their job actually needs, on the same shared system, with an audit trail that shows who did what and when.
Residential and commercial, on the same portfolio
- Residential units, tracked by bedrooms and monthly rent
- Commercial space, tracked by lettable floor area, with rent per square metre calculated automatically
- Both sit in the same portfolio view: no separate system for the commercial side of a mixed portfolio
Migrating your existing portfolio
Moving onto a new system usually means re-entering every lease by hand. Bodulo has a dedicated migration path for taking on an existing rent roll and its tenants, so a firm already managing a live portfolio elsewhere doesn't have to start from a blank slate to get onto Bodulo.
Why Bodulo, built for Botswana
- Designed around the payment infrastructure your portfolio already uses
- Workflows built around how property managers actually operate here, not adapted from somewhere else
- A platform built with the regional property market in mind, from pricing to support
