PG AND CO-LIVING MANAGEMENT
Know who is in every bed, and what they owe.
SmartMy Stay keeps your beds, residents, rent, deposits and move-outs in one system, so the caretaker, the manager and the owner all look at the same facts.
For PGs, co-living, working men's and women's hostels, and chains with several properties.
WITHOUT IT
What goes wrong in a PG run on registers.
×The same bed promised to two people, because the booking was in one notebook and the notice in another.
×Rent chased by phone on the 10th, with no clear list of who has paid.
×Electricity bills split by guesswork when someone joined mid-month.
×ID proofs and police forms kept in a file nobody can find.
×Deposit refunds argued over at move-out, because damages were never written down.
×An owner with three properties who sees the real occupancy only when he visits.
