Ongoing human tenant contact, finding or chasing providers, scheduling and following up work, letting, repairs and site inspections are not included. Optional assistance requires a separate fixed quote.

AI intelligent property management

3.5% + GST

Minimum NZ$99.00 + GST per property / month

For landlords who want ongoing day-to-day management responsibility.

  • Property records
  • Tenancy and documents
  • Repair records
  • Quote comparison tools
  • Reminders
  • Photos, invoices and expense records
  • Ordinary repair contact, quote collection, appointment arrangements and completion follow-up have no additional coordination fee. Managed landlords do not also pay the self-service system fee.

Every extra quote names the provider, scope, labour, materials, net amount, GST, total and any disclosed commission. Approval is required before work, and again for additions. Third-party work has separate quotes and invoices and is never automatically added to the management debit. Emergency spending follows the limit you select in the agreement.

Compare the plans

The 3.5% fee pays for ongoing property management responsibility: receiving information, organising issues, contacting participants, progressing work, retaining evidence and reporting to the landlord. It does not pay for third-party site work.

Weekly rent and cycle are context only. Enter confirmed monthly receipts; weekly rent is never multiplied by four. Calculate different properties separately. No third-party costs are added.

BuildBridge does not mark up repair-provider or material invoices. Third-party costs are shown at the actual quoted price.

Every extra quote names the provider, scope, labour, materials, net amount, GST, total and any disclosed commission. Approval is required before work, and again for additions. Third-party work has separate quotes and invoices and is never automatically added to the management debit. Emergency spending follows the limit you select in the agreement.

Rent and payments

Rent goes directly to the landlord’s nominated bank account. BuildBridge records confirmed receipts; it does not collect rent into its ordinary business account.

Debit notices

Management fees are collected separately by an expressly authorised Direct Debit. The amount and date are notified at least 3 business days in advance. One monthly collection per property is intended; no minimum-first / top-up-later collection.

Vacancy

Vacant property management costs NZ$99.00 + GST per month until let, suspended or terminated. No invented rent is used.

Your rights

You can inspect the calculation, dispute a bill, cancel the mandate and request termination in the payment workspace. Cancelling a mandate does not erase existing debt. No undisclosed fees, pre-ticked consent or unapproved backup-card charge. Disputed amounts are held from collection; mistakes are investigated and adjusted or refunded with the original record retained. Statutory consumer rights remain unchanged.

Service boundaries

The fee is charged to landlords, never a tenant letting fee. Licensed work needs qualified providers. Listing publication and bank/Xero connections are not claimed until actually connected. Online intake is not a promise of round-the-clock human attendance. Management starts only after agreement, consent, mandate, backup settings and start-date confirmation.

AI and human approval

AI automation targets: intake extraction, work orders, provider recommendations, enquiry drafts, quote comparison, follow-up reminders, scheduling suggestions, photo summaries, invoice extraction, monthly reports and overdue-work detection. External quotes, formal notices, provider selection, tenant decisions, payments, leases and legal matters require human approval.
